CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION <br />DRAFT <br /> 5 <br />Mayor Rafferty remarked that the council may benefit from a tour of treatment facilities 173 <br />in the future. 174 <br /> 175 <br />Council Member Stoesz suggested that if the City builds a water tower, the project should 176 <br />be visually documented perhaps by drone (at no cost to the city) to memorialize the 177 <br />project. Mayor Rafferty said he thinks that’s a great idea. The council discussed 178 <br />possibilities – time lapsed, occasional photos, WSB’s regular documenting process, etc. 179 <br />The council concurred that Council Member Stoesz should explore possibilities. 180 <br />Council Member Stoesz suggested that the residents be offered the opportunity to photo 181 <br />the building before it is down. 182 <br />6. WoodsEdge (Civic Center) Monument Sign – Community Development 183 <br />Director Grochala noted the YMCA’s interest in posting a sign or participating with the 184 <br />City financially on one. Staff’s been involved in a process looking at possibilities. Mr. 185 <br />Grochala reviewed the options included in the written report. They have located a good 186 <br />spot that provides optimal visibility. The report includes concepts that staff could refine 187 <br />further. The cost is estimated at about $50,000 to $60,000. 188 <br /> 189 <br />Council Member Lyden remarked that his preference would be for the final option. 190 <br /> 191 <br />Council Member Stoesz asked about Shoreview’s signs (larger and one sided). Mr. 192 <br />Grochala explained what he believes are the negatives of that type of sign. 193 <br /> 194 <br />Mayor Rafferty suggested that this may not be the time to make a decision on the sign. 195 <br />The council will discuss the matter again in the future. 196 <br />7.
