The K-9 Fund Drive is just about complete. Officer Webley is scheduled to leave for Menlo Park, California, on May 29, 1989 for (4) weeks. Attorney Chuck Zimmerman said there was a matter that falls under the Police Department matters and involves one of the City's Ordinance concerning leaving small children unattended in a vehicle. Chuck stated that his office was asked by the Mayor and Police Department to ask if the City Council wanted them to appeal the Judge's decision. After more input, it was the unanimous consensus of the Council for the attorney to pursue the issue. Bob Goodman said he had received two quotes for repairing the shop roof. One quote was in the amount of 2,402.00 and the other 3,100.00 The Council advised Bob to use his discretion and to go ahead with the project. Bob said the retaining wall at 13th and Arbor Terrace should be completed in approximately a week. Tery McKee gave a flood control update. Tery said several things are coming together on the study. The study done by Horton Dennis should be done approximately the 5th of May. Tery said he would like to recommend when the Council receives the study, that a joint meeting be set up with the County and talk about the alternatives and how to proceed. Currently there has been some action by the State and the Federal Flood Assistance Program in Douglas County. Tery said there has been some federal disaster funds that have been made available. Tery Mckee said he met the past week with the Sewer District Commissioners and Manager, Douglas County Commissioners and some people with the Department of Ecology and the State Coordinator from the Federal Agency that is supplying the funds. The purpose of the meeting was to find out what funds are available and what the criteria and any time constraints is necessary for utilizing those funds. Tery said he found out there are several hundred thousand dollars available and probably four different agencies involved. Mayor McGraw said it was his understanding that the project was a joint effort and at some point in time it would be on a ballot and the citizens of the area would vote to do this project. He said although the City and County have the authority to set up the district and build a storm center, he would hope it could be done through a ballot issue. Tery McKee said he feels that the next step should be after receiving the study from Horton Dennis, would be to sit down jointly with Douglas County and get some direction on how to proceed. Tery felt a joint meeting should be set for the following week. Mayor McGraw stated that Douglas County P.U.D. requested not to be on the agenda at this time but would probably be on the next agenda The Council was asked to review the information passed out relative to setting the Salary Range for the newly appointed clerk's position. Tery asked that the information be reviewed and if any council member has any recommendations to contact him or be prepared to discuss it at the next meeting. Fran Glessner spoke with the Council about a First right of Refusal with River City Partnership and she asked if the cost of attorney fees for preparing the document could be paid by the City and that information be included in the document and also that a time limit be set for one year. The Council agreed to the considerations and directed the Attorney to proceed with what ever is necessary. Attorney Bill Monnette, representing Peggy McArthur, asked to address the Council concerning a letter he had passed out to the Council at the beginning of the meeting. Paul Cassel said he would like a brief statement of what Mr. Monnette wanted to discuss. Mr. Monnette said he believed that there may have been an oversight in the Ordinance passed at the previous meeting regarding the position of an appointed clerk. Mr. Monnette said it appeared the effective date for the appointment was April 26th and he said his main concern is that may present some problems for both the City and City Clerk, Peggy McArthur. He said he just wanted to make the Council aware of his concerns at this time. Mayor McGraw said the Council would read and study the letter, and if Mr. Monnette wished, he could ask to be placed on the next regular agenda. Mr. Monnette said he wished to speak at the next council meeting. There being no furthur business, Tery McKee made a motion that the meeting be adjourned. Seconded by Dennis Hendricks and passed by vote of the Council. ichard McGraw, Mayor Peggy McArthur, Treasurer/Clerk 1 1 BILLS SUBMITTED FOR PAYMENT MAY 1, 1989 CURRENT EXPENSE 1. Leslie V.
