CITIZEN COMMENTS Roger Case, 922 Manzanal St, asked what could be done to submit changes to the City of East Wenatchee's Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Case said he had attended the City of East Wenatchee Planning Commission meeting on October 26 and some of his concerns could not be answered because of Planning Commission guidelines. Mayor Collings suggested Mr. Case contact the City offices for assistance. Jennifer Olsen, Douglas County Parks Department, reported on the City's ISTEA grant application for the Riverfront Trail project. The City's award amount would be three hundred fifty thousand dollars. Other entities receiving monies included Douglas County for its portion of the trail, LINK for bike racks, and the City of Chelan for its Twenty -Five Mile Creek project. Selling points for the East Wenatchee project were the community's support, it's potential to encourage other trail projects, and a twenty-five percent match of funds from the City rather than the usual twenty percent. Ms. Olsen said the next steps in the grant application process would be to contact and sign an agreement with the Department of Transportation regarding the requirements for administering the grant. She said Secretary of Transportation Duane Berenson was expected to formally approve the grant before the end of the month. - 1 - -z- •TTRJ1 aNTq/UeTJlsapad aq-4 0l UT ail aTgissod a aq osTe pTnoa azagl '1SaJalUT Al?unmmoo gbnoua glint Pies wmeH 'JH IzodJTV uzog6ued gl?M ui-9T1 01 'ATTn;adoq pup 'lodap ulezl a spieMo1 ob osTe pTnoM 6utpun; aq-4 pTes mmeH 'JH 'TTaM se sauTIsnq zaglo Jo; AITTTOe; a apTAozd of padoq XHIZ P?es mmeH •JH •sXOoT aXTq pup swoozlsaz OTTgnd apnToui pTnoM pup pTJOM aagaleuaM aqy moz; ssozae pup slaazls lsaTa pup asnOTed uaamgaq laazls UOTSSTH Uo paleooT aq pTnoo Jaluao aqy •sasnq zo; zaluao Ja;sueJl IaaJls-;;o up ;o uOTlonzisuoo sPaPmOl ob TlTm 6utpun; aqy •loaCozd TepowtlTnm a Jo; buTpun; Tezapa; PeATaoaz peg XHIZ pees aH 'ldaouoo TepomJalul aq1 6UTpzebaJ UOTIPIUasead t, apem 'Jabeuew ITsueJl XHIZ 'mmeH uaX NOISYZN3ssHd •TeAOJdde Jo; TTounoo 01 P911?mgns aze '69'6ZD'69S 3o lunoms aql UT '9S££T 746nozgl 0I££i szagmnu zagonOA luawAt,d 'Z66T 'Z zagwaAON 'alep STgl ;o sy *TTounoo of aTgeTTene apem uaaq seq gozgM 6uiisTj e uo papzooaz uaaq ant,q 4060'4z'zb MJd Aq paJinbea se pat;TlJaO swtpTO luamaszngwiaJ asuadxa asogl pup '0s0'VZ,Zt Mod Aq paJTnbea 1 se zaoi;;o buTITpne aq1 Aq P92;TIJaO pup palTpne szagonOA 'Z66T 49Z sagola0 'uotssag Tetoads sTT?g 30 uoileJapisuoo •z 'Z66T '6T Jagoloo 'uoTSsas JLITn6ad - salnUtN ;o UOTIpJaptsuoo •T '0-S 'PaTJJUD UOT1Ow aqy •PeISTT elaM swalT 6ulmOTTo; aql se pup paluasazd se JepuaTeo luasuoo aql anozddp of MOXTH JagwamTTOunoo Aq puooas 'AopZ JagwamlTounoo Aq appm SLIM Uotlow y 3UOTl0V TTounoo HVONsgVD INESHOo •JOleutpJ000 1oaCozd s,Alto aql se 1oaCozd TTezy IUOJ;JaATH aql uo XJoM Jag anUtluoo 01 UOSTO •sH aZTaoglne of snsuasuoo Aq p99z6e TTounoo •JoleuzpJ000 1Oa1OJd s,AITO ag1 aq of paaJ6e UasTO 'SH 'AI?o aq1 3O ;Tegaq uo auop TTaM qoC LI zO; uasTO •sH papuawwoo TTounoo aq-4 put, s6uTTToo JOASH •aosuazag Azplazoas Aq Tenozdde Tewzo; JO; 6UTITeM sT AITO aq-4 'luasead 1V 'loaload TTeJI 9141 3o sluawaSJopUa aATjeTSTbaT Xaas 01 awtl aq1 aq osTe pTnoM STgl •UOTgngTjquoo 6utpun; pasimozd 91T 6Utpze6aJ palaeluoa aq uoTi?Teoo doo7 aql alaTdmoo aql palsabbns Pup IUeIJOdwT SLIM IuamaATOAUT AI?unwwoo pappe aqS •aJtnbaJ pTnoM lueJb aql gazeasaJ Teuozltppe agl aTPueq of JoleuiPJooa e luzodde TTounoo palsabbns aqS abets sigl le sloadsp luelJodwt azaM luawa6puew pup UotleUTPJOOO IOaCOJd pees uasTo •s{T Mr. Hamm said LINK's first year ridership estimates were three hundred fifty thousand passengers.

This would include a system of "in -cell arraignment" which the county would own and maintain. Council agreed by consensus to the amount of one hundred thousand dollars for court services for 1993 only. Mayor Collings explained the situation with Douglas County regarding communications services. Eighteen thousand dollars was budgeted for communications in 1992. The requested amount for 1993 was forty-four thousand eight hundred dollars. Chief Flinner said an alternative would be to contract with the City of Wenatchee for communication services. The City of Wenatchee had agreed to the eighteen thousand dollar figure with a three-year contract and three percent annual increase. Mr. Flinner said there would be an initial expense for General Telephone to install a dedicated 911 line to ring into the City of Wenatchee rather than Douglas County. Also, for the grid work required to put East Wenatchee addresses on Wenatchee's computer system. Mr. Flinner added future plans called for a central dispatching system, including fire dispatch, for the entire Wenatchee Valley. Council agreed by consensus to pursue contracting with the City of Wenatchee for communication services. EXECUTIVE SESSION - Negotiations Convened - 8:00 P.M.
