MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />FEBRUARY 12, 2020 <br />structures are threatened, but water is backing up into yards instead of <br />draining like it is supposed to. <br />Keis stated that he feels this should be considered more since it was not <br />budgeted, and look at what the other options are. McGraw stated he was <br />concerned about the information received tonight from the City Attorney. <br />The City Administrator stated he had asked the City Attorney about <br />whether the City was setting a precedence for doing work on private <br />residential property. Fischer stated that he has walked through the area <br />and agrees that something needs to be done, but he feels it should be <br />looked at further before making a decision. Torkelson is concerned about <br />postponing this work. <br />Keis introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: <br />RESOL UTION NO. 2020-2-22 —APPROVE TABLING THE <br />MORRISON DITCH CLEANING PROJECT IN ORDER TO DISCUSS <br />AT FUTURE WORKSHOP <br />The foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Montour. <br />Ayes (4). <br />Nays (1). Torkelson. Resolution declared adopted. <br />WEBSITE The Parks & Rec/Community Services Manager explained that the city <br />IMPROVEMENT website has over 1100 pages and over 400 PDF documents. He stated that <br />PROPOSAL a great deal of staff time is needed to manually check each page to make <br />sure it is free of errors and adheres to accessibility best practices, <br />especially since content is continually being edited or added. He reported <br />that staff has been talking with a local company, Siteimprove, which <br />provides a service/platform that incorporates multiple website <br />enhancement tools into one easy to use dashboard that also provides <br />weekly reports to staff. The reports will include misspellings, broken <br />links, readability, accessibility issues, errors, missing alt text, Search <br />Engine Optimization (SEO) checks, and more. <br />The Parks & Rec/Community Services Manager stated that staff is not <br />aware of another all-inclusive premium product that will provide all of <br />these services. Many other area cities are using Siteimprove and offered a <br />lot of positive feedback on their experience with Siteimprove and how it <br />has helped their organization. He noted that staff was able to negotiate a <br />discounted price which will not change from year-to-year. Staff will <br />evaluate the value of the software to see if the agreement should continue <br />after this year, and would then be included in the 2021 budget. <br />0 <br />
