temporary city hall office modular and the subsequent processes,
with the City Clerk keeping Council informed regarding status.
CITIZEN COMMENTS
Councilmember McKee said the Solid Waste Advisory Committee had
requested a meeting be called with the Douglas County
Commissioners to have clarification of the budget and the
monetary allocations. He said a meeting was to be called within
two weeks.
In conjunction with Councilmember McKee's report, Cathy Brawley,
representing The Aware Program, an organization promoting
recycling in the community, spoke to the Council about the
program. Ms. Brawley asked Council's support and defined the
different things that can be done in recycling. In response to a
question from Mayor McGraw about recycling, Ms. Brawley said the
city could have it's own composting procedure, for example, and
sell it as mulch.
Peter Ringsrud, representing the Douglas County Public Works
Department, asked council to consider allocating funds in next
year's budget toward completion of the trail system. He said a
Shoreline Design Committee had been formed; and an Interagency
grant application had been submitted for about $300,000 of the
funds. Mr. Ringsrud said the estimated cost of the project was
$771,000, with funding from the Coalition of $150,000, Douglas
County Public Works would be $100,000 and $75,00 from the
Department of Natural Resources.
Mr. Ringsrud said the project would include retaining walls,
parking facilities and would be wide enough for bicycles as well
as walkers. He said eventually the plan was to extend the trail
to the County park. When Mr. Ringsrud said the county had not
considered continuing the trail to the city park at the end of
Grant Road at this time, Mayor McGraw asked the county to
consider this. He said plans and an application had been
submitted to IAC and they would be available to the county.
Chamber of Commerce Director Patti Herres gave a report on the
Classy Chassis Parade, noting she would have the costs compiled
soon. She added the parade was a huge success and things had
gone very well.
COUNCIL REPORTS AND UPDATES
' Councilmember Cassel reported on the status of a contractual
part-time planner with Douglas County. He said he had met with
Jerry Litt, Douglas County Planner, and felt this was a good
move, because of the Growth Management Act and the Regional
Planning Cooperative.
