March 9, 2000 To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Chuck Whiting, City Administrator Re: March 13, 2000 City Council Meeting Here’s what we have on the agenda for Monday night: 10. A - Public Hearing (7:05 p.m.) and Consideration of Resolution 5419, a Resolution Approving an Interim Use Permit for Six Billboards at the Bridges Golf Course – City Attorney: This public hearing starts at 7:05. The staff memo should review this fairly well. Questions about “interim use” should be referred to the City Attorney. 10B. - Public Hearing (7:10 p.m.) and Consideration of Resolution 5420 Adopting the City’s Business Subsidy Policy under Minnesota Statutes, Sections 116J.993 through 116J.995. Aaron Parrish: Aaron reviewed this item with the Council at the work session and will be present again to respond to any questions. Once again, this is a public hearing item first, and consideration of the resolution second. 10C. - Approval of Agreement for Services with the Brimeyer Group for City Administrator Search Process – Chuck Whiting, City Administrator: The Brimeyer proposal arrived this week and is included in your packet. The cost for his services and the time line are listed. A motion and second authorizes the work to begin. 10D. – Resolution 5422 Appointing Public Works Director Mike Ulrich Interim City Administrator Starting March 28, 2000 – Chuck Whiting, City Administrator: This resolution is based on the resolution passed in 1995 for Paul Harrington to act as interim City Administrator, a copy of which is included in your packet. 10E. - First Reading (Introduction) of Ordinance 655, an Ordinance Approving a Rezoning of Bridges Golf Course Parcels from CRP (Conservancy, Recreation and Preservation) and I-1 (Industrial) to PF (Public Facilities.) – Jim Ericson, Planner: The Council is aware of this item. The course does not seem zoned appropriately for its use and should be changed. Staff had thought that this had been done some time ago, but apparently we were mistaken. The proposed zoning will not only fit better with the golf course as a land use, but also for placing billboards. EDA 5E. - Approval of Agreement Terms with Springsted Public Finance Advisors for Conducting a Highway 10 Community Discussion for the City: We discussed this approach on Monday night. Springsted would facilitate and evaluate public discussion and past City study on the Highway 10 corridor. In my discussions with them, they estimate cost to the City for their services to be $5-6,000. I have a verbal agreement with them that it would not exceed $5,000 without Council
