MEMORANDUM
to:
Mayor Russell
City Council
Department Heads
from:
Steve Thacker, City Manager
subject:
City Manager’s Summary of November 8, 2006 Council Meeting
date:
November 3, 2006
D. Commendations and Awards - Blaine Lutz, Finance Director/Assistant City Manager will be recognized for 15 years as a City employee.
F.1. Legacy Parkway Presentation - John Thomas, Director of the Legacy Parkway Project, has requested some time to give the City Council another update on the Legacy Parkway, which will begin construction shortly. Construction bids will be opened in three phases beginning November 7. Mr. Thomas is making similar presentations to the other city councils in the South Davis area. I have enclosed a letter from Mayor Russell to UDOT regarding the property transactions that relate to the Legacy Parkway.
F.2. Proposed County tax increase for flood control - Tom Smith, Davis County Public Works Director, has requested some time to explain the need for the property tax increase proposed by Davis County Commissioners, to be used for flood control projects. He has been making this presentation to other city councils throughout Davis County.
F.3. Main Street Corridor Planning Project - Mayor Russell has stated that one of his priorities is to update the General Plan pertaining to the Main Street corridor. The City has been awarded an $8,000 grant for this project. Cory Snyder, Community Development Director, estimates the cost will be in the vicinity of $30,000 to $40,000, however. Therefore the City Council needs to not only review and approve the scope of work in the enclosed RFP, but also authorize sufficient funding for this project.
F.4. Staff report re: HEP proposed pipeline - The City Council held a second public hearing on the proposed Holly Energy Partners crude oil pipeline on October 17. At that time it was announced there would be one more public hearing in connection with the franchise agreement, which was still being negotiated. City Council and the public have seen the original draft by the City Attorney. However, a later version is not yet available and therefore, the November 8 meeting agenda does not show a public hearing. It does show, however, a staff report and update regarding actions taken by City officials and the HEP team since the October 17 Council meeting. The franchise agreement may be ready for Council consideration and a public hearing on November 21.
F.5. Museum Business (includes a public hearing) - In an earlier meeting, the City Council discussed the creation of an advisory board for the Whitaker Museum. At that time, the Council directed staff to bring back an ordinance creating a Museum Board and schedule a public hearing. The agenda shows two other Museum related items: the proposed use of land behind the Museum for community gardens; and a request to use the Whitaker Museum Fund Balance ($1,257) for repairs and/or acquisition of artifacts for the Museum.
F.6. Report from Information Technology Steering Committee - The ITSC has been working now for a couple of years to upgrade the City’s use of technology in its facilities and in the provision of services. Councilman Paul Cutler is a member of that Committee. He recently requested that the Council receive a report of the Committee’s accomplishments to date and current projects. See the enclosed written summary of these projects.
F.7. Recodification of Titles 1 ~ 4 of Municipal Code - A few months ago, I reported to the Council that staff had embarked on an ambitious year-long project to update the Municipal Code to bring it into harmony with State law and to address weaknesses that have occurred as a result of piece-meal amendments over the years. The first four titles are now ready for Council consideration. These titles deal with general provisions, government organization, administration and the Justice Court, respectively.
F.8. Summary Action Calendar
a.& b. Special District Budgets - Two special districts, the South Davis Sewer District and the Utah Transit Authority, have submitted their budgets for review and comment by the cities within their service areas.
c. Drainage Facilities Agreement - This agreement provides for the City to participate in the construction of drainage facilities that will address a drainage problem on the north side of Chase Lane. The work involves the installation of a storm drain lateral and catch basin that will receive drainage from a property at 138 West Chase Lane.
F.9. Minutes Review and Acceptance - The minutes to be approved are enclosed.
F.10. Mayor’s Report - The Mayor will report on recent action of the Wasatch Integrated Waste Management District, which has approved another rate reduction.
F.11. City Manager’s Report - I will report on several matters, including an update of park improvements, a recent meeting with youth football program representatives regarding the use of City fields, the upcoming Festival of Lights, and rescheduling of a joint work session regarding infill development.
F.12. Miscellaneous Business - At this time I know of no specific matters to identify under this heading.
F.13. Closed Meeting, if necessary - At this time I do not know of a need for a closed meeting. The agenda, however, shows that possibility, just in case.
