CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION March 4, 2019 APPROVED 4 4. Blue Heron Days Parade Traffic Plan – Public Safety Deputy Director Kyle 131 Leibel reviewed the written staff report outlining options for changes including changing 132 where parade would end and/or establishing a trail for property access during the parade. 133 Mayor Reinert said he likes option three but also sees the benefit of having the parade 134 follow a circuit to get things back to start. 135 136 Council Member Manthey said he supports option three and wouldn’t have a problem 137 with adding another option to get parade vehicles back. 138 139 Mayor Reinert said he’d hate to see the parade shortened by a third so would appreciate 140 some way to keep it its current length. 141 142 Public Safety staff will begin discussions with Target regarding the establishment of a 143 path. 144 5. West Shadow Lake Drive Project Request for Additional Curb – City 145 Engineer Hankee reviewed her written staff report. As part of a resident information 146 meeting, staff was asked by certain property owners to amend the street construction 147 plans to keep the golf course access open a little longer (until the golf course opens in the 148 spring) and to extend the addition of curb at the south end of the roadway. The extension 149 of curb and would add an additional $28,000 to the project cost (which would come from 150 the closed bond fund). 151 152 The possibility of other non-curbed areas being added was discussed. Staff will 153 approach all those without curbs plan. 154 155 The council concurred with the amendments but directed staff will do the outreach and 156 come forward with a full recommendation for a change order. 157 6. Recreation Complex Discussion – Public Services Director DeGardner read his 158 written staff report. He is providing additional information on cost of the recreation 159 development that was discussed (pickle ball courts, tennis courts, parking lot, trails and 160 landscaping). Staff is identifying two sources that could fill the gap in funding past the 161 budget for this year. 162 163 Council Member Rafferty discussed that the project makes sense in conjunction with 164 other work that will be done in the area (i.e. water tower) but not in the context it being 165 the beginning of an overall buildout of the park. 166 167 Mayor Reinert said he supports a project with the property. He asked about a schedule 168 and Mr. DeGardner said it would make sense in conjunction with the water project, with 169 completion most likely in 2020. Mayor Reinert indicated that there may be additional 170 opportunity and investment coming for a project in this area and so he’d like to continue 171 the discussion at next month’s work session. 172
