• Item 7-Discussion of Signalization at Xylite and County Road J: We have been informed that this is being considered and there may be a cost sharing request. Mike will review the options that exist here. Item 8-Information regarding Spring Lake Road/County Road I and assessment policies and hearing for March 9: Staff has attempted to do two things over the past couple of weeks and would like to know if the Council needs more prior to the March 9 public hearing. First, questions were asked and comments made of this project and policies which Mike and Steve Campbell have attempted to respond to. Second, the Council may well want to consider determining a preference for policy and project changes if it wants staff to determine options for a different direction than current policies references. There has been a lot of information and comments made to date on this, but it has been very difficult to determine what should be done from here on. I have commented to Barbara Haake that this is on the agenda, but staff would like to have some time to discuss with Council these issues in preparation for the March 9 public hearing. I would ask the Council to consider the amount of time being spent on this without declaring a direction other than policy. As staff we will attempt to review the likely process to go through if some other alternatives are to be considered. Item 9 - Housing Replacement Program Amendment: Rick Jopke will review this with the Council. • Item 10 - Silverview Estates TIF Request: This was reviewed at the EDC meeting this past Thursday. Rick can go over this with Council on Monday. Item 11 -Highway 10 Design Theme: Since he will be there, Rick can also update the Council on the meetings on the design theme that have been held. Item 12 - Building N: I am still determining whether to bring this Monday night or not. I will be calling Tim Nelson on Monday. He has come back with some minor changes to the previous agreement the Council has approved. He needs to change the name of his corporation, which is minor, and wishes to extend the substantial completion date to the end of the year 2000, another change that does not affect the City negatively. He does want however to add some charges into the TIF eligible exhibits which I will not agree to as recommending to the Council. I want to talk with him Monday on this, and if he doesn't agree, I will pull it from the agenda with the understanding that the Council has not agreed to this provision in the past and does not need to be bothered with this again. Item 13 - Review of Council Retreat: Salverda has finished up the report and we can review it Monday evening. Item 14 - Call Council into session in order to set a public hearing: We can explain this on • Monday. Donatelles is being sold and the license will be asked to be transferred. It has been another busy week and I am likely forgetting things. I put some things in my This Is It. Have a good weekend and see you on Monday.
