17 distributed to the council a draft public information piece that explains the proposed
18 storm water utility and announces a public education meeting. At the public hearing,the
19 consultant on the project, Short Elliott Hendrickson Inc. (SEH), will give a presentation
20 and answer questions.

22 A council member suggested that the presentation should be taped and replayed on the
23 public cable channel. Some suggestions were made by the council to improve the public
24 information piece to show how the use of this utility is a more equitable approach to
25 paying for storm water services. It was recommended that the city inform the school
26 district that this may happen to give them time to prepare in their budget.
