MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />MARCH 26, 2003 <br />Council discussed the recommendation to review alternative law <br />enforcement options, and agreed that proposals should be sought from <br />nearby cities that have their own police departments. <br />Council discussed the recommendation that the City create a storm water <br />utility. The Administrator pointed out that charges can be varied <br />depending on the class of property. Blesener suggested a flat, per <br />property, charge. Council directed the City Administrator to research this <br />option and bring back a recommendation. <br />Council discussed the special activities line item in the Fire Department <br />contract. It was suggested that discussions occur with the Fire Department <br />relative to this expense as part of the 2004 contract negotiations, as the <br />Fire Department may have alternative revenue sources that could be used <br />to underwrite this expense. Fahey suggested that rather than target one <br />line item, the Council review the bottom line with the ;Department. Fahey <br />pointed out that the Fire Department has historically had modest increases <br />in their budget. <br />It was the consensus of the Council that discussions occur with the City <br />Attorney relative to his costs to determine if there is a made to make a <br />reduction in legal expenses. <br />Montour again noted that it is important that property owners are aware of <br />the impact that the proposed State budget will have on Little Canada, and <br />the efforts of the City to address this issue. <br />There being no further business, the workshop meeting was adjourned at <br />7:28 p.m. <br />n <br />Mich el I.
