The special meeting was called to order by Mayor Fran Miron at 7:30PM.
PRESENT: Arcand, Barnes, Goiffon, Leroux, Miron
City Administrator, Robert Museus
The purpose of this meeting was to discuss plans for extension of the Bald Eagle Industrial
Park. At the Mayor's request, the City Administrator presented a brief description of the
proposed plan, including goals and objectives, and the three options from which an
analysis had been performed.
Judd Jackson, an owner of one of the properties being considered for expansion in the
Industrial Park, informed the Council that their attorney had been out of town, and that
they would be responding to the City's proposal for the development of their property in
the near future. He expressed concern regarding the timing of the development of his
property, as proposed assessments for the project could substantially reduce the price they
would receive for their property.
Jim Kellison, member of the Planning Commission, recommended that the City establish a
separate Economic Development Authority to manage development of the Park. The
Council indicated their interest in looking into establishment of a separate EDA. The City
Administrator stated that he would provide the Council examples of EDA for their review.
Leroux made motion, Barnes, directing staff to place the purchase of the Roy Molitor
property, plus the City Engineer's proposal for engineering services for the plans and
specs of Fenway Boulevard, on the agenda for the next Council meeting.
All aye. Motion Carried.
Miron made motion, Barnes seconded, that the City receive competitive quotes for
preparation of the Environmental Assessment Worksheet plan for the project.
All aye. Motion Carried.
Goiffon made motion, Leroux seconded, to adjourn at 8:40PM.
All aye. Motion Carried.
