PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE CITIZEN COMMENTS Dick Olton, East Wenatchee resident, said he has heard a lot of things about fluoride and said he is in favor of fluoridation in city water. However, he said he is against people not having the choice of having fluoride in their drinking water when other forms of fluoride are available. Douglas County Auditor Thad Duvall said the filing period for the 1999 election process will be the last week in July. He added the odd year elections may be done by mail and asked Council to consider a mail -in ballot for the primary election. PRESENTATIONS Douglas County Port District Boardmember Bob Corkrum gave an update of the Industrial Park at Pangbom. Mr. Corkrum said the Industrial Park has all utilities except sewer. Mr. Corkrum said Coca- Cola will be a tenant of the Industrial Park using eight acres of property adjacent to the Executive Flight building. Mr. Corkrum said the runways have been repaved with new lighting and signs. He added the Forest Service base is looking at moving to the Waterville airport. Chelan Douglas Regional Oral Health Maintenance representative Pam Pass gave a presentation and showed a video in favor of fluoridating the water to help prevent tooth decay and gum disease. Ms. Pass added fluoridation in community water is the single most effective public health measure to protect the American population against dental disease. Council Action: A motion was made by Councilmember Stanton, second by Councilmember Mikow to publicly endorse adding fluoride to the community water. The motion carried, 5-0. (Hendricks abstained) DEPARTMENT REPORTS City Administrator Staven said the first recycling report showed some recycled items do not bring the anticipated revenues because the price is determined by the market, and the items have become a traded commodity. Mr. Staven said staff recommendation is to wait and see what effect Waste Management's purchase of the Ellensburg company has on the local economy. He added the contract with Waste Management would need to be modified if Council decides to make any changes. -Z- aepuajuD luasuoD aq1 woaj umeapylim uaaq stq sll!gjo uo?lwzp?suoa ay1 p?ts ,tag? ioAUw HvGN1H7VJ.LN3SNOJ '0-9 `Pauata uo?1ow aqy •auansse 01 ssaupalgapu? ou Swaq aaagl 'ssaupalgapu? ,S1?0 luauno ay1 jo uo?ldwnsse annbaa 1ou pinom ,tl?0 aql (£) `•Z1-176'oIQ uo?lnlosa7l Su?uoz uo?lexauue-aid ,C1?D aql ql?m aaut?ldwoa u?
