Interim Administrator Ulrich stated in his awareness this was correct, with the exception of <br />ongoing work that is outstanding on a couple of issues. <br />Council Member Stigney stated in response to a resident's inquiry, he had spoken with Finance <br />Director Kessel that date. He stated this was a proposal to authorize transfers in the amount of <br />$94,614 to bring the City up to date for Airport Litigation and Legislation. He stated he had <br />inquired regarding the costs related to the Airport Litigation and Legislation during the last two <br />years, being aware that this has been ongoing for several years, and Finance Director Kessel <br />informed him that for 1999, and thus far in 2000, this amount was in excess of $131,000. He <br />pointed out that the amount presented in the staff report does not represent total expenses related <br />to the Airport Litigation, and he was uncertain how many years the City has been involved in this <br />issue <br />Mayor Coughlin stated the Airport Litigation began 1986, and the issue actually came forward in <br />1946, when the airport was built. <br />Council Member Stigney stated he simply desired to clarify that this amount did not by any <br />means, represent the total costs. <br />Mayor Coughlin stated for the record, "Thank God it's done, and that Representative Haake and <br />Senator Novak have finally resolved this issue so that the City does not have to face these attacks <br />on their quality of life in the future." <br />Ayes - 4 <br />• <br />11.
