right 429 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,120 of way 430 00:19:39,120 --> 00:19:42,000 and due to just all the construction the 431 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,000 difficulty getting there 432 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:45,919 staff would like asking the commission 433 00:19:45,919 --> 00:19:48,000 if we could just waive that downtown 434 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:49,840 right-of-way permit application until 435 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,799 this construction is over for that area 436 00:19:52,799 --> 00:19:55,679 to allow this to go on 437 00:19:55,679 --> 00:19:57,360 what is that 438 00:19:57,360 --> 00:20:00,160 it's a process before i mean i know what 439 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,480 it is what is the cost 440 00:20:02,480 --> 00:20:05,840 it's just a 25 processing fee for us to 441 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:10,549 do it 25 25 442 00:20:10,559 --> 00:20:12,720 and that's just our time of reviewing it 443 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,640 make sure it is 444 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:15,919 if we have to have the street department 445 00:20:15,919 --> 00:20:18,080 take barricades just the administrative 446 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,480 time of getting all those things set up 447 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,039 is this recommended i assume staff 448 00:20:23,039 --> 00:20:25,600 recommends we do this yeah we feel it's 449 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:26,480 you know 450 00:20:26,480

just 453 00:20:33,919 --> 00:20:36,080 feel it's worth waving this for this 454 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,400 time during the construction 455 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,440 the the cross traffic is basically cut 456 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,159 off at that particular point during the 457 00:20:44,159 --> 00:20:46,400 construction process so there wouldn't 458 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:48,480 really be any through traffic there no 459 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,400 they're gonna have to come in from the 460 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:52,320 south correct 461 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,240 yes

second all in favor say aye aye aye aye 478 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,600 motion carries consider extending the 479 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,760 city hall bid date 480 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:35,039 to march 15 2022. who's speaking to this 481 00:21:35,039 --> 00:21:38,320 uh mayor mccowan gordon contacted us and 482 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,159 asked if we could ask the commission to 483 00:21:40,159 --> 00:21:43,600 extend to march 15 2022. the reasoning 484 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:47,039 behind this is the trade partners 485 00:21:47,039 --> 00:21:49,120 have a lot of great questions a lot of 486 00:21:49,120 --> 00:21:50,480 questions that are having to go back to 487 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:51,600 trainer 488 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,679 and they're trying to really drill down 489 00:21:53,679 --> 00:21:56,400 and provide the best price without being 490 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,679 able to get clarifications on this 491 00:21:59,679 --> 00:22:02,880 the uh construction
