developed.
*MOTION CARRIED.
MOVED BY BAUCH, SECONDED BY DUFFIE, THAT COUNCIL ADOPT THE
RESOLUTION AS READ.
Byron Sneva, Public Works Director, explained the lowest bid exceeds
the engineer's estimate. The cost does not justify the construction.
*MOTION CARRIED.
Councilmember Duffie explained the projects being considered.
It was determined to reduce the scope of the athletic field due
to the acquisition of Fort Dent Park.
Councilmember Bauch stated he would like the entire Council to
discuss this topic. There are lots of items in the CIP that
developers should be paying for; they should be LIDs.
Councilmembers discussed the need to know where the problems are
before the plan is implemented; how the City interfaces with
surrounding areas and the maintenance programs we have to keep
the system flowing.
Councilmember Bauch suggested there be a public hearing to see
what the public would like.
Byron Sneva, Public Works Director, using the overhead projector
presented a background on surface water and drainage and the
divisions of the City. He stressed the need for a program to
clean up the surface water.
Ann Nichols, representing the Segale Company, said the Plan needs
to go back to committee and come forward with some directions.
There may be others creating the problem and they need to help
take care of this. A study could determine where the water is
coming from.
Councilmember Harris stated she would like a study showing where
the water is coming from. It should be called a Surface Water
Management Plan rather than Utility.
Mayor Van Dusen stated the scope will be changed and that may
change the cost.
