Councilman Bauch said, for the record, the City should con-
sider, in the future, vacating that portion of Nelson Place
that extends into the project site.
*MOTION CARRIED.
Based on the continual complaints on dogs running loose in
the City, Mayor Van Dusen suggested that Council could again
look at contacting Renton to see if they would be interested
in patrolling for Tukwila or Council could consider setting
up our own enforcement. Council President Morgan commented
that, at the present time, we are not paying the County for
animal control. Any other method will cost money.
Councilman McKenna said there is a dog running loose in his
area that children are afraid of and won't walk past the
house.
Council President Morgan announced that she will be placing
discussion on a Mission Statement and Strategic Objectives on
the Work Meeting schedule for the next few months.
Byron Sneva, Public Works Director, reported that they had
planned to purchase a jet pac machine under the bid received
by Pierce County. The low bid they received was $140,000
which is $10,000 over the amount in the budget. They will be
looking at an alternate plan for the repair or purchase of a
different machine. It was suggested that he discuss further
plans with the Finance Committee.
Michael Running, speaking for Robert Poon, thanked Council
for their assistance in processing the Developer's Agreement
so they can proceed with their project.
