MEMORANDUM

to: Mayor Russell
City Council
Department Heads
Planning Commission
from: Steve Thacker, City Manager
subject: City Manager’s Summary of December 7, 2010 Council Meeting
date: December 3, 2010
5:45 Work Session – The City Council will meet with the Parks and Recreation Committee and the Trails Committee members in a joint work session at 5:45 p.m. All participants are encouraged to come at 5:30 to enjoy dinner together, which will continue while business is discussed in the work session. The purpose of the work session is to allow each committee to report on what they have been doing and what they plan to do in the future. These reports will be a good foundation for a discussion the Mayor will then lead, which will focus on the question “What is the future role of these committees?” This question is timely because of the current reduced agenda for the Parks and Recreation Committee. Is there still a need for this committee, or should its duties be modified in some way? Do we still need two committees?
As background materials, I have enclosed City Code provisions about these two committees—their organization, duties, etc. The Trails Committee Chair, Denise Cox, has submitted the enclosed list of their committee’s accomplishments in 2010 and their goals for 2011. Gary Goff, Vice Chair of the Parks and Recreation Committee, will make the report of their committee’s activities at the meeting.
7:00 Regular City Council Meeting
E.1. Minutes Review and Acceptance – The minutes to be approved are enclosed.
E.2. Summary Action Calendar
a. Interlocal Agreement re: stormwater activities – Davis County and its cities are jointly funding and implementing a number of activities relating to stormwater management. These activities help each local government fulfill its obligations under the stormwater general permit issued to each city by the State of Utah. The enclosed agreement to be approved by the City Council pertains to these joint activities. This is a renewal of a similar cooperative agreement that has been in effect for the past several years.
b. Bid Award - Police Department Vehicle – The current City budget includes funding for replacement of the K-9 vehicle. The Police Department would like to replace the current
truck with a Ford Expedition SUV, which will provide climate control for the dog during hot summers and cold winters. The additional cost for this type of vehicle will be offset by the trade-in value of the current vehicle.
c. Approve telecom franchise agreement – Electric Lightwave LLC has applied for a new franchise agreement with Centerville City. This new agreement would be for a five-year period with the option to renew for another five years.
d. Termination of warranty period for Wal-Mart Commercial Subdivision – Wal-Mart is ready for termination of its warranty period.
E.3. Water system study report and Water Fund finances – This topic would normally be handled in a work session; however, since the regular Council meeting agenda is so brief, it has been added to this agenda. Staff will present the results of the comprehensive water system study conducted earlier this year by the City Engineer. That report recommends several water system improvements that will require bonding and a water rate increase. Staff will begin a discussion with the Council regarding Water Fund finances. Staff recommend acceptance of a professional services proposal from Lewis Young Robertson and Burningham (LYRB) to prepare a Culinary Water Capital Facilities Finance Plan and conduct a User Rate Sufficiency Analysis. These services will be an important foundation for the Council’s decisions about bonding and water rate increases. The proposal from LYRB is enclosed for the Council’s review. This plan and analysis would be paid for by the Water Fund and cost an estimated $15,000 (plus a 10 percent contingency). Also enclosed is a comparison of current water rates and water impact fees for Davis County cities.
E.4. Mayor’s Report – I assume the Mayor will report on a few topics.
E.5. City Manager’s Report – I will update the Council about an I-15 culvert project, the Main/Parrish intersection project and the scheduling of a work session with State legislators representing Centerville.
E.6. Miscellaneous Business – At this time I do not know of any other subjects to identify under this heading.
E.7. Closed Meeting, if necessary – At this time, I do not know of a need for a closed meeting; however, the agenda allows for that possibility.
E.8. Action Following Closed Meeting – Mayor Russell may recommend one or more appointments.
