COMMUNITY FORUM. <br /> 15 Mayor Cavanaugh explained that the Community Forum is new to the Council and provides the <br /> �16 opportunity for residents to address the Council about items not included on the regular agenda. <br /> 17 In this respect, Richard Miller, 2717 30th Avenue, approached the Council and stated he wished <br /> 18 to address the issue of the Harding Street project. <br /> 19 Mr. Miller stated that he would like to ask the Council to consider scaling down the project or <br /> 20 considering a compromise. This request is due, in large part, to his understanding of the uncer- <br /> 21 tainty that the project would be able to provide the residents with the aesthetic results that were <br /> 22 expected. Mr. Miller also stated that, on the other hand, he had been informed that the City and <br /> 23 WSB have argued that the aesthetics would be made satisfactory to the residents. Mr. Miller <br /> 24 suggested that if the project was scaled back, that the residents could continue to retain quality of <br /> 25 life and property values. In other words, Mr. Miller felt that if the landscape architect was not <br /> 26 able to provide satisfactory results for the residents, then the sacrifice was too large for the resi- <br /> 27 dents. <br /> 28 Cavanaugh thanked Mr. Miller for his suggestions and input. He mentioned that Todd Hubmer <br /> 29 from WSB & Associates was in attendance and would be addressing the Harding project later in <br /> 30 the meeting. <br /> 31 VI CONSENT AGENDA. <br /> 32 Cavanaugh explained that the Council had two meetings held in December 1999.
