MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />APRIL 10, 1996 <br />to improve life safety in one of the two buildings. <br />Scalze stated she had a problem with that, and felt <br />that if a sprinkler system is installed, it should be <br />installed in both buildings. <br />LaValle suggrsted if the City is creative and generates <br />some extra dollars, then that money should be used to <br />the benefit of all the citizens of Little Canada, and <br />should not go back into a private building. <br />Fahey felt if the Council votes down the use of the <br />money for sprinkling one of the buildings, it will lose <br />an opportunity to upqrade life safety in the City at no <br />expense to the taxpayers. Fahey stated he would love <br />to be able to do this in both buildings, and would hope <br />the other one could be sprinkled in the future. <br />Morelan pointed out that it came through loud and clear <br />in the Community Survey that people were willing to pay <br />additional taxes to improve life safety issues. While <br />this is only 90 units, Morelan felt it had to begin <br />somewhere. <br />LaValle pointed out that the Survey responses were <br />referring to police protection. <br />Mr. Morelan introduced the following resolution and <br />moved its adoption: <br />RESOLUTION NO. 96-4-85 - APPROVING THE RECOMMENDATION <br />AS PRESENTED TO REQUIRE TI-IE INSTALLATION OF A SPRINKLER <br />SYSTEM IN ONE OF THE PROVINCES BUILDINGS WITH THE CITY <br />CONTRIBUTING THE COST OVER $43,000 WITH FUNDS TO COME <br />FROM THE CITY~S LOAN ORIGINATION FEE FROM THE PROVINCES <br />FUNDING, AND INDICATING THAT THE CITY WILL NOT SIGN A <br />CLAUSE INDEMNIFYING DOMINIUM DUE TO THE FACT THAT ONLY <br />ONE BUILDING IS SPRINKLED <br />The foreqoing resolution was duly seconded by Fahey. <br />Ayes (2) Morelan, Fahey. <br />Nays (3) Scalze, LaValle, Pedersen. Resolution denied. <br />Scalze felt that the City should require an upgrade of <br />the fire alarm system at The Provinces as well as <br />installation of magnetic closures on the doors. <br />Pedersen asked if the cost of these improvements did <br />not reach $43,000, what would happen to the remainder <br />of the money whioh Dominium Group committed. <br />The City Administrator replied that Dominium committed <br />10 <br />
