MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />OCTOBER 30, 1990 <br />Dick Boss pointed out the rental hall across the street <br />from the Fire Station suggesting that the City would <br />not want to go into competition with that hall, and <br />also pointing out the inadequate parking at the Fire <br />Station. <br />Fahey suggested that the Fire Department review the <br />matter and give the Council a recommendation by the <br />second meeting in November as to use of the basement <br />facilities by the Fire Department as well as the Fire <br />Department's scheduling of these facilities. Fahey <br />suggested that at its next meeting, the Council pass a <br />resolution declaring the intention of the City to <br />retain the building based on the input received from <br />City organizations regarding their interest in using <br />the building. <br />Blesener instructed Public Works to submit a letter <br />outlining their possible uses of the building. <br />Dick Boss pointed out the possibility of using the fire <br />station by a Health One unit. <br />Blesener suggested that after the Fire Department has <br />come back with their recommendation, a small committee <br />be put together to look at defining uses. <br />Fahey agreed that after the Fire Department has made <br />their recommendation, the City should go back to the <br />various organizations for a more defined plan. <br />Council also discussed the need for additional parking <br />at the Fire Station suggesting that the City should <br />look into the possibilities for additional parking, <br />such as relocation of the pleasure rink. <br />COST SAVINGS Fahey reviewed the City Administrator's report dated <br />MEASURES October 26, 1990 regarding cost-savings measures <br />outlining those measures which have already been put in <br />place by City staff. Fahey went on to review the <br />suggestions of the Administrator outlining additional <br />areas that need further evaluation, which may result in <br />cost-savings to the City. <br />Council noted that designation of the City's official <br />newspaper will come up for consideration in January, <br />and it was the consensus of the Council that serious <br />consideration should be given to competitive bids from <br />newspapers which deliver to all residences within the <br />City. <br />Page 5 <br />
