1 <br />1 <br />COUNCIL MEETING FEBRUARY 22, 1993 <br />Administrative Department, Mayor Reinert; Public Works <br />Department, Sally Kuether; Police Department, Andy Neal and <br />Economic Development Department, John Bergeson. Council Member <br />Neal seconded the motion. <br />Council Member Bergeson asked if engineering firms are part of <br />the City Council appointment process. Mr. Schumacher explained <br />that they were. The City Council appoints consulting engineering <br />firms by entering into a contract with a 30 day cancellation <br />clause. Council Member Bergeson asked that Mr. Schneider prepare <br />a report on the engineering firms and bring his recommendations <br />to the City Council for consideration. <br />Mayor Reinert explained that he and Mr. Schneider met with the <br />president of Short -Elliott -Hendrickson, Inc. (SEH) recently. SEH <br />is refining their system of charges to developers. Mr: Schneider <br />will have a report for the City Council on this matter shortly. <br />Council Member Bergeson said he felt that it may be more <br />appropriate to look at this matter after the current construction <br />season to see how the new procedure is working. <br />CONSIDERATION OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY ADVISORY BOARD <br />RESOLUTION NO. 01 - 93 <br />Mr. Wessel, Economic Development Representative recommended that <br />the City Council approve Economic Development Authority Advisory <br />Board Resolution No. 01 - 93. This resolution recognizes the <br />importance of the devlopment of the Lake Drive/Highway 49 <br />intersection and allows Opus Corporation an exclusive 90 day <br />development option. Mr. Dick Quist from Opus Corporation and Mr. <br />Terry Lappin were in the audience. Mr. Lappin read a draft of a <br />letter to the City Council thanking them for the opportunity to <br />work with the City in the development of the intersection. He <br />noted that he would be working with Mr. Quist and Opus <br />Corporation to complete plans for the development. <br />Council Member Bergeson expressed his appreciation to Mr. Lappin <br />and noted that this is a TIF district and it is important to move <br />ahead with the development to take advantage of the limited <br />number of years left in this district. <br />Council Member Kuether moved to approve the Economic Development <br />Authority Advisory Board Resolution No. 01 - 93. Council Member <br />Elliott seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. <br />PAGE 7 <br />4 <br />
