ROLL CALL Councilmembers Present: Councilmember Buckner, Councilmember Raab, Councilmember DeWitt, Councilmember Bremmer, Councilmember Aiken, Councilmember McCourt, Councilmember Hendricks, and Mayor Lacy. Staff Present: Linda Countryman, Bob Goodman, Lori Barnett, Joan Sims, Randy Harrison, Teresa Allen, and Chuck Zimmerman. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE DEPARTMENT REPORT Community Development — Update on the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II Grant Process. Community Development Director Barnett said Douglas County and the City of East Wenatchee made the list for funding at a level of $75,000.00 per jurisdiction. However, Chelan County and the City of Wenatchee did not make the funding list. In an effort to continue or work towards having consistency in local regulations, the four jurisdictions are submitting an application for funding under a "Special Partnership Provision" that would include Chelan County and the City of Wenatchee and could provide for up to an additional $150,000.00 in grant funding to help us with the work. She said the Department of Ecology (DOE) requires that a funding request under the "Special Partnership Provision' include an interlocal agreement approved by the jurisdictions that are making the application. Council Action: A motion was made authorize the Mayor to sign the necessary documents related to development and implementation of projects relating to the regional storm water plan by Councilmember Buckner, second by Councilmember McCourt. The motion carried, 7-0. Community Development — View Point Park Update Community Development Director Barnett along with Street Superintendent Goodman met with the Department of Transportation (DOT) regarding relocating the View Point Park. Ms. Barnett said with the relocation of SR28 the current location of the View Point Park near Fred Meyer will be wiped out. Ms. Barnett reviewed possible relocation sites with Council. She also showed a plan that was designed in 1987 for the trail at the foot of 9`h Street and said it would also be an enhancement to the site although there would not be parking adjacent to the relocation site like there is now. Ms. Barnett said the City would be required to maintain the site as with the existing View Point Park and although this is more of a trail enhancement it would give the City a chance to work with DOT to add amenities and beautify the entrance to the trail. Other potential site options discussed were along SR28 south of the 9th Street Trail entrance and Top Foods. Council discussed the amenities located at the park, relocating the time capsule, and how much usage the park gets. Council agreed by consensus to relocate the View Point Park to the foot of 9`h Street at the trail entrance. •xiom Iugl Joj uoilusuadwoo 3o swaal Japisuoo of liounoo a)lti pinom uosIJJuH 3aig3 `JanaMoH •,Cliouduo sigl ui aAaas of ssauBuIII!M u paluoipui suq uosuJuH.3aig0 •uoiloury sigl ui Iou oI ouoawos oliq of soiiio lsow ui iCJuwolsno si li pius Kourl JoX'6'W aagoluuaM Isug 3o ,�i0 aql ui sosuodsag Xoua21awg llu Joj sisuq aqI su (SNIII) walsAs luawoOuuuw ivap►oul luuoilux aqI 2uildopu puu uoiluziuuiUo luawoSuuuW Xoua2Jawg uu Suigsilquisa uoilnlosol d ZO-II-SO Nol Ln,los3H 'wd £O:L Iu guiauaq oilgnd aqI posolo ,Court JofvW `luowwoo oilgnd ou Our -MOH 'wd ZO:L lu Buimaq oilgnd aqI pouado ,Court Jo,Crw -saxul flaadoad ui asualou► %I agl Buqul Iou papuaww000i suq aaliiwwoZ) I32png aqI pius Covj JoKL'N •ja'2png aagoluuaM Isug 90OZ posodoJd aqI ui saxul, 4ndoad Ouipau&all 2uuuaH oilgnd `d 10-II-SO 9NI2IV2[H 3I'I8fld •papioA STM Z9£9i Jagwnu IuunuM 'SZ'V00`St,$3o lunowu lulol aql ui `06£91 gSnoagl Sb£9I siagwnu luuJJum anoJddu soop liounoD `SOOZ `8 aagwanoN `alup sigl JO sd 'liounoD of alquliunu apuw uaaq suq lugs Builsil u uo poplooai uaaq anuq `060'17Z'Zb MD2i /�q paainbol su paggloo swiulo Iuawosangwioi osuodxo osogl puu `080'tbZ'Zb M02I Xq paJinbaa su JaoWo Suilipnu aqI Xq pagpno puu polipnu saagonon sllig3o uoiluaapisuoD •Z SOOZ `SZ Jagoloo `uoissaS JulnSQ-d -- sainuiw 3o uoiivaapisuoo • I -0-L `poiJauo uoilow oql, •sIoupuaH JagwawliounoD Kq pu000s `IIiMaQ JagwowliounoD Xq palumwd su Jupualuo Iuasuoo ayi Mold& of apuw suns uoilow d :uoilaV iiauno3 2IVQN31IVO INaSNOO •Ouilaaw oql puouu pinonn aq pius II►MaQ aagwowpounoD •uaJd aagoluuaM Jaluoig aqI ui osn aalunn oininj Joj gouoiddu luuoi0oi u ssnos►p of soilunoD sul2noQ puu uulago jo sluiogjo poloala JoJ si uoilulinui aqi pappu PH -wd OO:b of 00: i woJ3 y16 JagwanOM uo lluH 44D aagoluuaM Iu aalliwwoo Sui=IS 3oinosa21 JaluM luuoiS3-d aqi Suipualiu ui polsaaalui sa3gwawliouno3 Xuu aaann 3iagl31 pwisu puu umol 3o Ino oq ll!m aq pius XouZ JoXvW •uo SUDIJOM si ailalaud-swung upui"I aAiluluasaado-d alulS goigm uoilulsi2ol ul a'Buugo u annboi oslu pinom sigl pappu PH •IoiJlsip duixul NIP laud aq pinom ftli0 aql su aagoluuaM Ing apnloui pinom goigm IoiJisiQ soililioud oilgnd u 3o f4i1igissod aqI passnosip ,Cagl pius PH •aagoluuaM Jo3 uuaau asodandillnw posodoad u jo JolouJluoo puu Jadolanap aql puu `nuaang saolisiA puu uotluaAUOD XalluA aagoluuaM 43lnl0 n2o2I `.JoloaaiQ liounoD slJodS C311RA aagoluuaM `punIS UH upui'I qj!m law aq pits Xou-I JoSuW •paJiq si Xowoilu asnoq-ui uu Iilun aoulluM XgdanW uapSo of ptud oq pinom aluJ XlJnoq uu pius PH •I32pnq fJuuiwilaad aqI ui Xouaollu asnoq-ui uu papnloui suq puu saotAJas luBal passnosip suq aalliwwOD aql pappu PH •laaw of sanuiluoo aalliwwoD o2png aql pius �ou"I Jo CuW .LHod2lH SIHOAVW 900Z `8 2I38W9AON S91flNIW 'IIONf10O ddH3,LVN9M ISVd 40 AID CITY OF EAST WENATCHEE COUNCIL MINUTES NOVEMBER 8, 2005 Chief Harrison spoke briefly regarding the functions of the Emergency Management Organization adding it is now state mandated for cities to establish emergency management policy.
