MEMO To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Chuck Whiting, City Administrator Re: March 17, 1997 City Council Work Session Date: March 13, 1997 Monday's work session was set up as an informational meeting with Council to get up to speed on the status of community and economic development work being done in the community. Cathy and Pam will go over this subject in as much detail as the Council wants on Monday. I have taken the liberty of adding an item with Bruce to keep you all up to date on the Bel Rae election stains. Bruce's memo reviews the mail in ballot option and I hope by Monday night to have a draft information fold out for your review prior to mailing. I may also want to reschedule the public information meeting as I realize that if people wait for that meeting in order to decide how to vote, their ballots will likely not reach City Hall by the Saturday election. With that in mind, I will suggest moving the meeting or just setting a second one the prior week. Also in your packet is the election question. I made the change to reflect the gym option and the $3.3 million cost, plus made a minor change to the Children's Home Society description after talking with them about how best to describe their business. So the process continues to whir or whirl along, depending on the moment. Just for information sake, Mary Saarion and I have looked at options in Park and Recreation and I • will be meeting with Nick Temali next week to compare notes on options that may be workable for Community Ed and the City. Also, I have been in touch with Don Salverda in preparation for the March 22 retreat session with Council and staff. Please remember this is on your schedule for S:30 am at the golf course club house. Have a good weekend and see you on Monday evening. •
