interoffice MEMORANDUM
to: Mayor Deamer
City Council
Department Heads
Planning Commission
from: Steve Thacker, City Manager
subject: City Manager’s Summary of April 5, 2005 Council Meeting
date: April 1, 2005
6:00 Budget Work Session - Please remember we begin early again for a continuation of our budget work session at 6:00. Dinner will be available beginning at 5:45 p.m. Bruce Cox and Richard Hunt will make their presentations. Near the end of the work session, the Mayor and Council members will be called out of the meeting, one by one, for photographs for I.D. cards.
REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING
E.1. Summary Action Calendar -
a. Bid award - This work involves resurfacing several streets identified in the staff report. These streets are in addition to other street improvements that are part of other bid awards, such as the 400 West Street Project that has already been awarded and the Chase Lane West Subdivision project that is on the April 5 agenda.
b. Street Sweeping Agreement - This matter was postponed from the last meeting. The agreement has been revised per Lisa Romney’s suggestions and comparative bids from private companies are included in the backup report. I recommend we use the County’s street-sweeping service.
E.2. Public Hearing - Huffaker Rezone - This property is located at the northwest corner of Main Street and Bamberger Way (180 South). Prior to December 2003, this parcel was split between two zones–residential and commercial. In the December 2003 city-wide rezone, this property was rezoned entirely as Residential-Medium, but staff later agreed it should have been rezoned as Commercial-Medium. The Planning Commission unanimously recommends approval of this rezone as well as a waiver of the application fee, as explained in the staff report.
E.3. Chase Lane West Plat A Subdivision Improvements - This project includes nearly $1,000,000 in public improvements, including replacement of subdrains and storm drains, street reconstruction and culinary water system improvements, as well as construction of a new secondary water system. All of these improvements are to be paid for with City funds, other than the secondary water system. That component is to be funded via assessments from property owners (i.e., a special improvement district). This matter was postponed from a month ago so that staff could address several unresolved issues pertaining to the source of secondary water from Weber Basin and financing from the Board of Water Resources. As explained in the backup report, there are still some legal impediments that staff is working through. Therefore, I again recommend postponement of the creation of the special improvement district. However, due to an expiration date on the contractor’s bid, staff recommend the Council award the rest of this work–that is, subdrain, street improvements, storm drain, culinary water improvements–without the irrigation system improvements. The contractor has agreed to allow the irrigation items to be awarded later if the Council will proceed now with the rest of the bid award so work can begin.
E.4. Public hearing re: CDBG urban trail project - The City has been awarded a $119,000 CDBG grant for phase 1 of the urban trail project. Grant regulations require the City Council to now conduct another public hearing before proceeding with a final application.
E.5. Frontage Road parkway and pond area - As explained in an earlier memo, the prospects for altering the pond area have improved, based on recent discussions with an Army Corps of Engineers representative. The enclosed staff report explains the steps to be taken to eventually replace the pond area with usable public open space.
E.6. Union Pacific Railroad drainage issues - At the Mayor’s request, I will update the Council on this matter at the meeting. There is reason to be encouraged about the ultimate outcome.
E.7. Minutes Review and Acceptance - The minutes to be approved are enclosed.
E.8. Mayor’s Report - I assume the Mayor will report on a few matters.
E.9. City Manager’s Report - I will keep my report brief.
E.10. Miscellaneous Business
a. Nomination for Utah League of Cities and Towns Legislative Policy Committee - The League has asked for our annual nomination to the Legislative Policy Committee, if we wish to have a representative on that body. If any Council members are interested, I will gladly step aside.
b. Founders Park playground equipment - The Parks and Recreation Committee has recommended that the old playground equipment from Founders Park (Cowboy, Indian, Stagecoach) be auctioned and the proceeds applied towards the new playground. I need to know if the Council concurs with this recommendation.
E.11. Closed Meeting, if necessary - The Council may be going into closed meeting earlier in connection with item no. 3. If a closed meeting is needed for some other purpose, however, the agenda allows this possibility at this point in the agenda.
9:30 RDA MEETING
C.1. Review impact of SB 184 - The Mayor has asked staff to explain to the City Council the impact of Senate Bill 184 pertaining to redevelopment agencies.
C.2. Review analysis of RDA’s financial capacity - As a foundation for item no. 3 on the RDA agenda, Blaine will be reviewing the RDA’s financial capacity with the Board. There are a number of documents enclosed for this subject, but they will need some explanation at the meeting.
C.3. Discuss potential RDA projects - This is a continuation of discussions in an earlier meeting. A closed meeting is shown on the agenda, if needed, to discuss the sale and/or lease of real property owned by the RDA.
