WORKSHOP MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />OCTOBER 13, 2021 <br />Director noted that the repair costs were split between city hall and the history center. The City <br />Administrator noted that the history center has no source of funding other than donations. Keis <br />noted that he expects the city would pay for those repairs. <br />Fischer stated that at some point the Council will need to address how to pay for the things, like <br />Pioneer Park, that the Council has deemed are priorities. <br />The Finance Director explained the projected facility improvements needed at the fire station <br />over the next three years totaling over $1 million. She reviewed the possible sources of revenue <br />for funding improvements in the next few years. <br />The City Administrator explained that there are potential opportunities for tax base growth <br />through redevelopment and reduction in fiscal disparity contribution if population grows. <br />The Finance Director explained that there will also be a deficit in the General Capital <br />Improvement Fund. A way to address this deficit in the short-term, is to move the fire station <br />facility improvements to the Fire Equipment Capital Fund. <br />There was Council consensus to put all of the fire expenses, facility, equipment and trucks, <br />together into the Fire Equipment Fund in order for more fiscal transparency and to better show <br />how much it costs to run the fire department. <br />There beiny, no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 7:27 p.m. <br />Jolyi T.
