CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION August 6, 2018 <br />APPROVED <br />45 included. Staff indicated that it is a goal to get that cleaned up and they feel the <br />46 developer may ultimately be involved. <br />47 <br />48 Council Member Rafferty asked for an explanation of the "main" road. Ms. Lindahl <br />49 noted that the main road will certainly be public; a private drive is being considered <br />50 within. Council Member Rafferty asked about the club house element and Ms. Lindahl <br />51 noted that it is a planned amenity for the residents but there are not specific plans at this <br />52 point. A representative of the developer outlined the concept they envision as a place for <br />53 mainly used for meetings. <br />54 <br />55 Mayor Reinert asked, with no real negatives being expressed by the council, how would <br />56 this proceed. Mr. Grochala explained the steps that would come next, including a traffic <br />57 study. <br />58 <br />59 Mayor Reinert remarked that the concept of buffering the adjacent neighborhood will be <br />60 an important element. <br />61 <br />62 A resident requested that part of the traffic study should be consideration of the density of <br />63 the entire area. And the buffer is important. It would be more density than was <br />64 originally planned on the west side and they want to understand how that could impact <br />65 the other side. Mayor Reinert said he is sensitive to the matter of density and he thinks <br />66 that may be more specifically dealt with in the upcoming comp plan update. <br />67 <br />68 An area resident asked how many emergency calls could be anticipated with this type of <br />69 development. Public Safety Director Swenson noted that the city currently has <br />70 experience with calls from an assisted living facility but that wouldn't be the same as this <br />71 proposed facility, which includes 24-hour nursing. Mayor Reinert asked if it's always <br />72 necessary to have the lights and sirens for the calls and Chief Swenson said if the police <br />73 are responding to an emergency they must have their lights/sirens going. <br />74 <br />75 Mayor Reinert asked about timing to break ground. A representative of the developer <br />76 suggested a year from now would be about the quickest turn around. <br />77 <br />78 Council Member Manthey commented that his major concern would be getting the <br />79 roadway access from the last piece down in the corner. <br />80 <br />81 Mayor Reinert remarked that this is a developer who has had one facility for 100 years <br />82 and is now deciding to build; he has confidence that they are a good builder. <br />83 Z. Review Social Media Policy —Administrator Karlson recalled that he had <br />84 presented a possible policy to the council and one that is being used by other cities. The <br />85 council asked that he get comments on the policy. He did get feedback from Council <br />86 Member Stoesz and has incorporated some of those ideas. <br />87 <br />88 In summary, the changes relate to definitions, establishing a communications team for <br />�a <br />
