[0:43] to hit.
[0:43] Mayor Mackenzie Perry-
[0:48] Provost Morganed-
[0:51] lifecycle and
[1:02] thank you everyone for being here tonight.
[1:04] Council members.
[1:05] We have an agenda before us.
[1:07] Is there any amendments or a motion to adopt?
[1:11] I'll move to adopt.
[1:13] I'll second.
[1:13] Okay, we have a motion to second.
[1:15] All those in favor, please say aye.
[1:17] Aye.
[1:18] Any opposed?
[1:19] Not hearing any.
[1:19] We'll move forward with the agenda.
[1:22] And we have public forum, is anybody signed up?
[1:25] No, okay.
[1:26] Thank you.
[1:28] All right, why is this going to go quick here?
[1:30] All right, consent agenda.
[1:32] We have multiple items on there.
[1:34] Is there a motion and a second to get things started?
[1:36] and then we can have discussion on individual items, if we're interested in it.
[1:41] Second.
[1:41] All right, we have motion in a second, and any discussion?
[1:45] Yes, I want to thank Peter Hogan for volunteering to come to the utility board.
[1:52] Also, I want to congratulate Isaiah Weinerich as a new video recorder,
[1:56] which I know he's going to do a great job.
[2:00] And I guess we're hiring Josh Smith back as a part-time police officer, so thank you.
[2:06] Anybody else not hearing any we have a motion in a second to adopt the consent agenda all those in favor please say aye
[2:14] any opposed not hearing any that passes all right a new business we have a public hearing for ambulance charges
[2:25] for Wabusha County Resolution 26-030 and certification of nuisance violation Wabusha County Resolution 26-031 and fire charges Wabusha County Resolution 26-0302 and fire charges Goodview County Resolution 26-0303 and delinquent utilities Wabusha County Resolution 26-0304 and Jerome, do you have an opening for that one?
[2:55] What's that do we have anything before we open the public hearing no, I don't
[2:59] Maybe I can just give a little background and then obviously if there's questions as we go through the hearing process we can do that
[3:06] We do this annually
[3:09] This time of year. It's basically don't inquin charges like
[3:13] Bear clean just ran through
[3:16] We send out notices repetitive notices. I know I had a few questions on that we send out notices
[3:21] So these aren't anything new, and then we send out a final notice basically saying if you
[3:28] don't take care of this by August 15th, we're going to be assessing it at the hearing
[3:34] with the date and the time of the hearing tonight.
[3:36] So there's usually ample notice on these things we just don't do one notice and that's that.
[3:42] So in some of these, as you'll know in the RCA that's written up here, I've sent out multiple
[3:48] will notice is but some took care of it and obviously some dent which is before you
[3:53] here. The thing to note is we're not assessing an individual person, we're assessing the
[3:59] property of which they live in. We assess the property idea of where they reside. So yeah,
[4:07] the information's there and this includes ambulance fire, utilities and then nuisance as
[4:12] as well. So, we're not required to have a hearing, but we have done that to standard practice
[4:19] in the past. So, perfect. All right. So, we will look for a motion in a second to open
[4:25] the public hearing. Can I just ask a question quick? Jerome, were these people all informed
[4:31] that they could come to a public hearing? Yeah, in the notice it's basically said, when
[4:35] we sent them out on the first part of July, they were sent to notice it says, we're here
[4:39] by, we have this going to charge, here's what it is, you have to take care of it, if
[4:45] you don't take care of it, we're going to assess it.
[4:47] You have the right to come to the council meeting to voice your concerns during that process
[4:52] of, thank you, if they didn't want to reach out to staff and work with staff on that.
[4:56] In some instances, I know a couple of them on the ambulance side worked all payment arrangements.
[5:00] and that's fine, too. So we do work, try and work with people before it gets to the state at which it's at right now. Very good. Very good. Thank you. Any other comments? Do we have a motion in a second to open the public hearing? So moved. I'll second it. Okay. We have a motion in a second. And all those in favor to open the public hearing. Please say aye. Okay. We are in public hearing. Do we have anyone that would like to speak to this matter? Any
[5:28] moment, if there is anybody that would like to speak to this matter, please step forward.
[5:32] And
[5:36] final call, if there's anyone that would like to speak at the public hearing, please step forward.
[5:41] Not
[5:44] hearing anyone.
[5:45] We will accept a motion in a second to close the public hearing.
[5:51] So, I'm going to get that.
[5:57] Okay.
[5:58] All those in favor to close the public hearing, please say aye.
[6:01] Aye.
[6:02] Okay.
[6:02] Very good.
[6:03] Now, any discussion on the resolutions before we start doing motions here?
[6:08] Yeah,
[6:12] different procedural purposes we have just because we're sending notices to multiple counties for multiple different things
[6:17] That's why there's multiple resolutions.
[6:19] Absolutely, yeah, and so on.
[6:20] Yeah, we're clearly aware of why and do it all in one because there are two different counties and there are different types of charges and they
[6:25] Can apply differently to statutes, so not a problem.
[6:28] Do is there any questions to 26-030 and that was Wabusha County for ambulance charges?
[6:36] If not, do we have a motion in a second to approve?
[6:39] So moved.
[6:40] Second.
[6:40] Okay, we have a motion in a second. All those in favor? Please say aye.
[6:45] Aye. Any opposed? Not hearing any? 26, 0, 3, 0 passes.
[6:51] And any questions or discussion on 26, 0, 3, 1?
[6:56] Motion to approve.
[6:58] Aye, second.
[6:59] I have a motion in a second. All those in favor? Please say aye.
[7:02] Aye. Any opposed?
[7:04] Not hearing any of that passes. 26, 0, 3, 1.
[7:08] and 2,6,0,3,2. Do we have a motion in a second or any discussion?
[7:15] A motion. Second.
[7:17] Any motion in a second? All those in favor, please say aye.
[7:21] Aye.
[7:22] Any opposed? Not here and any, that passes.
[7:26] On to 2,6,0,3,3.
[7:29] Fire charges for Goodview County. Do we have a motion in a second?
[7:32] It's all moved.
[7:33] Second.
[7:33] Okay. Any discussion? If not, all those in favor, please say aye.
[7:39] Aye.
[7:40] Any opposed? Not hearing any. That one passes.
[7:45] And 26034 for delinquent utility, Wabashak County.
[7:49] Do we have motion a second?
[7:50] So moved.
[7:51] Second.
[7:52] And any discussion? Not hearing any, all those in favor, please say aye.
[7:57] Aye.
[7:58] Any opposed? Not hearing any. That passes as well.
[8:02] I'm just checking the staff we caught all of them, I believe.
[8:06] On
[8:14] to 5B, request to approve Resolution 26029 for de-certification of TIFF District 13.
[8:24] So you're, sir?
[8:25] Yes.
[8:28] I know I took this item to poor authority as well since it affects their stuff.
[8:36] Basically, it's an old TIFF district that was created back in 2004.
[8:42] It's a redevelopment district.
[8:44] Redevelopment districts have a 26 year payback period.
[8:49] Obviously, this district's been open since that point.
[8:53] Redevelopment hasn't occurred in that area at this point where the district is at
[8:59] if redevelopment were to occur at some point along the way.
[9:03] most likely this district would get decertified like we're doing tonight and a new project would
[9:09] come forward. A new tip district could be created and we move forward with a project because it
[9:15] wouldn't be economically feasible with where we're at with the life that's left in this district
[9:19] that's due to expire in 2033 I believe to keep it open and just wouldn't be financially viable.
[9:27] All it's doing is just an administrative burden because we got to do an annual tip report. It serves
[9:32] There's no purpose.
[9:34] There was entries done on books that were needed to be done to keep the district active at
[9:41] the time.
[9:43] Basically, when we're decertifying it, we're closing those, basically closing out the books
[9:47] and getting clean in it up.
[9:50] I put some financial statements in there, mainly on the poor authority side, just so we knew what
[9:54] was occurring there would be very similar on the general fund side as well.
[10:00] It's a non-cash transaction because the cash has been spent years ago, back when the district was created. So, I see no reason to keep this thing open. We would be certified as of 1231-26. In there is obviously, I'm going to send a copy of the resolution to the state, along with the de-certification form once the county auditor assigned off on it. That gets sent to the state. The district is de-certified. We'll have one last tiff report.
[10:29] to do for 2026 at that point and then it will be closed so when we took it to
[10:37] poor authority at their August meeting they had no concerns with moving it
[10:40] forward as well so with that I guess I'll answer any questions. I think you
[10:46] said it well Jerome but just to make it clear for the public we're not spending the
[10:50] money tonight that's been spent years ago and we're essentially just writing off
[10:55] the old receivable obligations.
[10:58] Correct, clearing the books.
[10:59] Correct.
[10:59] There was entries done by the prior finance director
[11:02] because in order to keep that district created,
[11:05] we had to show an obligation on the books.
[11:07] And it never was recorded in prior years
[11:09] like it should have been.
[11:11] So the prior finance director did it the right way
[11:13] and put that on the books,
[11:15] went at the point in which we're desertifying,
[11:17] we got to clear the books in order to do that.
[11:19] And that obligation to your point was,
[11:21] That was created many many years ago when this district was actually created back in 2004 2005
[11:28] So very good. Do you have a motion a second?
[11:33] So moved
[11:35] I'll second it. Okay. We have a motion a second any discussion and just deposit we have an internet issues or is everybody just mine?
[11:41] Okay. Yeah, I've heard where where is this district?
[11:46] Because I thought it was something different, but it's not. No, yeah, it's right out just
[11:51] to grab a lot right along the highway here.
[11:53] So it's right across this.
[11:55] Right behind the old public safety bill.
[11:56] Okay.
[11:57] And actually currently at the time there's about,
[12:00] I think there's five parcels within that district.
[12:03] Only two because of how,
[12:05] what's happened since the district that's being created.
[12:08] Two of those parcels are only in the TIF district now anyways.
[12:12] So we don't even have a redevelopment occur.
[12:14] It would be for the whole five parcels most likely.
[12:17] So there's only two in it because Tiff Laughing allows you to keep two in it because of what occurred and all things happen there.
[12:28] So there's multiple reasons why not to keep the district open anymore.
[12:32] I don't have a problem with that. I just want something different than whether that's why I asked.
[12:42] We have motion on a second.
[12:44] Any other discussion?
[12:48] Not hearing any?
[12:49] All those in favor?
[12:50] Please say aye.
[12:51] Aye.
[12:52] Any opposed?
[12:53] Not hearing any of that passes.
[12:56] All right.
[12:57] Moving on to 5C.
[12:59] Adoption of Resolution 26027.
[13:02] Approving proposed 2027 general fund revenue and expenditure budgets.
[13:06] It's a busy night for you, it's like a may yet procedural thing.
[13:15] We have to obviously approve a preliminary budget levy for 2027, you need to do that
[13:21] prior to September 30th.
[13:23] If you recall it's not to exceed levy that we have to set in September, historically we've
[13:29] kind of set the mark and then as we work through over the next two to three months with some
[13:33] changes that usually occur, typically do, we'll come around to hopefully a final number
[13:38] that will be hopefully less than this but we'll work through that and we'll work through
[13:41] those changes and explain those. Whether we do it at just a regular workshop or we come
[13:45] in December with that information. These are the numbers you saw back in July when we presented
[13:53] first draft. We took capital plan back in April May, layered that in along with the operating
[13:58] budgets presented that all in July. So this was the numbers in July with the exception of one thing.
[14:05] We received our health insurance renewal subsequently after the July workshop and that's health insurance renewal was not very
[14:14] fable and not to what we would have thought would be occurring. The preliminary budget had 10% in there. This insurance renewals
[14:21] had 16% currently. We're working through requesting proposals to see if we're in the market, perhaps if maybe we need to change carriers.
[14:32] years. So we're working through that process. Once we have that information I would anticipate
[14:38] if there's some savings there, we'll obviously do that. If there's not savings there, we'll
[14:43] be working through what do we do with our current plan, or do we need to make changes to our
[14:49] plan, maybe higher deductibles, etc. I don't know that until we have maybe some comparable
[14:54] plans to to see if we're in the market or not. So when I I changed.
[15:16] So that added some numbers, you know, I wrote, notated it here in the RCA.
[15:29] We were at about
[15:29] what July workshop and what we talked about as a budget and kind of agreed to what you are
[15:34] approving this evening.
[15:38] I guess I'll answer any questions. There's kind of two parts to this
[15:41] thing. There's one just approving revenue expense budgets and then the next RCA or next resolution
[15:46] is approving in the actual preliminary levy. And like I said, this is not too exceed. We'll come back
[15:52] in December with maybe perhaps some different numbers. So
[15:58] any questions from the council?
[16:04] Just a
[16:04] So, General, how big a hassle is it for staff and then all the employees to switch to a new plan?
[16:12] Well, that's going to be the tricky part to be quite honest with you because, you know,
[16:17] at some point, there's, when you talk about percentages, is it worth the hassle of 2-3 percent
[16:24] maybe to save something?
[16:26] I don't know that until we get the proposals back and see where we're at.
[16:30] We haven't had to go to market.
[16:32] This is quite frankly a surprise to us as staff, because all the data we were seeing and receiving and where our trends were, weren't dictating where we ended up.
[16:44] It doesn't really match what we've seen from our provider past.
[16:49] It seems a little out there, so that's what triggered the review.
[16:54] One of the things that I just want to throw in here, one of the things that led us to this plan is that you can save money by taking a provider specific plan through this group.
[17:06] So, Mayo only, or Fairview only, those types of things. The problem is that where we're at geographically, we've got a combination.
[17:16] and we've got folks who are using Olmstead,
[17:18] we've got folks who are using Mayo or, you know,
[17:20] going down to Wavishaw.
[17:22] And so there's just a lot of options,
[17:25] not a lot of options, but there are more options here
[17:27] than just Mayo.
[17:28] And that does not work well for employees
[17:32] to tighten it down to a single provider.
[17:36] Sorry.
[17:37] No, that's exactly.
[17:39] So that's the balancing act we're at right now.
[17:43] Like I said, we got proposals out to try
[17:44] and see if that is, maybe where we're priced at is,
[17:48] what the market is for our group.
[17:50] We won't know that until we get the information back.
[17:53] And like I said, we haven't had to do this before,
[17:56] for probably about three years now.
[17:58] Yeah, it's been good.
[18:00] So.
[18:00] But that number is final to stay with the current provider.
[18:03] Yes.
[18:04] Okay.
[18:05] So if we find that there is a savings,
[18:08] we have discussion internally amongst us as staff
[18:11] and maybe employees as well,
[18:13] That says if we switch we can go to this right now. We're on Medica. Maybe we can go to health partners
[18:18] We were with health partners, but back in the past we saved five six percent. Let's just say in
[18:25] Everybody's comfortable with that. We'll proceed down that way and we'll just this levy down
[18:30] Indy subway, okay
[18:31] But if we stay where we're at and we're gonna stick where we're at because that is the market where we're at
[18:36] I feel it's only fair to least for this this levy for
[18:41] September to have that higher amount in there. The other thing that will be a factor too, we have, there was a couple vacant positions at the time we were doing budget, those are now settled out, so there may be some health insurance changes that you know budgeted family, they may be a single or et cetera, and there's open enrollment that will be occurring here over the next two months too, so there could be some transition people changing between there too, so I don't think we're locked in here by any means, but I think it's only fair with where we're at to at least plan
[19:10] and for some in case it does end up being that.
[19:14] I appreciate the staff suffer.
[19:16] This is a lot of variables to go through
[19:18] and whatever we can do to normalize that budget
[19:21] to our original target would be also appreciated
[19:24] while making sure we're taking care of our staff.
[19:26] No, it would be my fully intention to come back
[19:28] as we work through this and we know more information
[19:31] to share with council what those changes are,
[19:33] no different than I've done in the past.
[19:36] When do you expect to get the information from?
[19:38] We're right now all for proposals.
[19:41] I don't know if we'll know an answer before our October council meetings, workshops, etc.
[19:47] It would probably be in November 1 unless we had something special going between there.
[19:52] It's tricky because we're trying to pull this information on the proposals at the same time we normally do open enrollment.
[19:58] and we tell employees, here are your options.
[20:02] So, there's some move and parts here. I'd love to see it before that, if we can. Yeah, and that's the other thing. If we are going to need to be forced to make changes with either our current plan or our new plan, we're going to have to work through those two, not only perhaps with council but staff as well. Believe us, we don't want to make changes if we didn't have to either, but we're kind of in a spot now where we've got at least review options.
[20:27] So and I think you do need to shop around and try to get the best deal you can and I understand what you're saying Rob about you have to pick one but you have to do that now I had to pick my health insurance
[20:43] where I wanted to go to the doctor because that's where it's getting to be but you could choose I mean if you were a male you could choose male you know so I think we need to get the bang for the buck
[20:55] because it's going to keep rising and the employees got to work with us as well.
[21:02] So if
[21:06] we had a crystal ball, I could see what the companies are going to do in the next two years.
[21:10] That's why we're offered proposals now.
[21:12] I would anticipate us getting two to three at least at a minimum.
[21:15] So we'll have something comparable to work from now on.
[21:18] Is this something that you guys make the call or do if you get a couple different options?
[21:24] Does it come back to us to make a decision?
[21:26] or is this an internal. I can't remember because it's been a few years.
[21:32] Yeah, we haven't had to tell no. Sorry, that's your question.
[21:39] Yeah, I would anticipate if we're going to start making changes, we're going to have
[21:43] to review it internally, probably amongst employees internally and then perhaps come back
[21:48] to you.
[21:52] That's what I guess I would see. If we're not making changes, then obviously it is
[21:57] is what it is, but I have a feeling there's going to be some shorter change, I don't know
[22:03] what that is.
[22:06] Because it's a two year contract, right, or is it three, just one year to year.
[22:12] And like I said, all the data and things we've been seeing and hearing for the past six
[22:18] months didn't indicate that this was coming, so that's why I'm kind of surprised.
[22:26] So we have two motions, it sounds like with this one, 26, 0, 27 to approve the 20s, 27 general fund revenue and expenditure budgets, and then after that's when we'll actually look at the levy.
[22:39] Okay, so for the 20, 27 general fund revenue and expenditure budgets, 26, 0, 27, do we have a motion in a second?
[22:48] So moved, I'll second it.
[22:51] and we have a motion to second any more discussion?
[22:54] I would just note that those numbers are basically higher from the July one based on the health insurance.
[22:59] So that's at 8.9, correct?
[23:01] It's at the 8.5, 8.5, we don't thank you.
[23:05] Yeah, I think it was about a, don't quote me on the DOM on 17, 18,000 somewhere in that range, so.
[23:15] Very good, so we have a motion to second any other discussion?
[23:17] Not hearing any. We'll call the vote on that and all those in favor, please say aye.
[23:24] Aye.
[23:25] Any opposed?
[23:26] Not hearing any passes.
[23:29] So the second part, 5D, adopt resolution 26-028 for the property tax levy payable in 2027.
[23:39] And Jerome, do you have a presentation for this particular person?
[23:42] No, I just basically the levy side, this is actually where it comes from.
[23:45] The thing I probably didn't mention in this whole discussion so far is you know, I think I alluded to it at the July workshop, you know, with the
[23:56] preliminary
[23:59] overall valuation increase between the two taxing jurisdictions.
[24:03] Our tax rate actually with these changes is going to be relatively neutral.
[24:09] Our tax rate will still say in that range where I have, which is right around 60% or 60.
[24:17] So I don't anticipate a major change on that either, so I just want to make note of that, even though it's being spread across the same area in a way.
[24:27] So yeah.
[24:28] And just for clarity for everybody listening at home too, this isn't a saying we want to have an eight and a half percent.
[24:34] No, it's the ceiling maximum. Do not exceed. We're setting tonight. So hopefully we'll get it back to our target goal and
[24:43] If I may ask this is a council have targeted goal just for for staff to know as we work through and look at changes. I guess that's
[24:54] Well, I think didn't we say 7.5 at the last one? Yeah, that's helpful
[25:00] We know as we work through and so. Yeah. Very good. Health insurance is a big thing, so. Well, personnel costs are in just. Very good. All right. Do you have a motion in a second for the 2027 Levy, 206028? So move. Second. Okay. We have a motion in a second. Any further discussion? Not hearing any call the vote. All those in favor, please say aye. Aye. Any opposed?
[25:31] Not hearing any, that passes, thank you, Jerome.
[25:34] Thank you, thanks, Jerome.
[25:38] We have five E, a budget transfer for Hoaxala Capital Building Project Roofing.
[25:46] Thank you, Mr. Mayor, council members.
[25:48] I'm going to apologize ahead of time.
[25:49] My voice is a little bit weak today.
[25:51] Unfortunately, I did catch a little bit of a cold with the cold weather moving in.
[25:54] So, this is a simple budget transfer request.
[25:57] Yes, we have a small capital project at Hoxla where we roofed a handful of buildings out there.
[26:04] The project is just very minimally over budget by $2,126.45.
[26:11] We have sufficient funds in our operating supplies budget at Hoxla that we can transfer and
[26:16] move into that to satisfy the final payments for that project.
[26:19] So that is the request for this item to simply authorize approval of transferring those funds.
[26:26] and specifically $2,126.45 from Hoxler operating supplies to Hoxler capital to satisfy those remaining bills.
[26:35] Very good.
[26:38] Any motion in a second?
[26:39] So moved.
[26:40] A second.
[26:41] All right, any discussion?
[26:46] Not hearing any?
[26:47] Call the vote.
[26:47] All those in favor?
[26:48] Please say aye.
[26:49] Aye.
[26:50] Any opposed?
[26:51] Not hearing any.
[26:52] That passes.
[26:53] All right.
[26:54] Five.
[26:55] I think this is yours.
[26:56] as well as approve the 2027 maintenance agreement between Wavishak County and the city of Lake City.
[27:02] Thank you, Mr. Mayor.
[27:04] This is an annual maintenance agreement that we get into with Wavishak County for two specific roadways segments.
[27:12] Wavishak County stated highway five and nine.
[27:14] This is to perform snow and ice maintenance agreements or snow and ice removal and streets weaving maintenance on those segments of roadway.
[27:22] Okay, we get compensated $2,000, $602 per mile for those segments.
[27:28] So the projections for those myelages are on there, and the city would receive ultimately $5,777 in compensation for this particular maintenance agreement.
[27:40] It's an annual agreement that we renew with them each year, so this is another routine practice.
[27:45] this. So very good. And we have a motion in a second. So moved.
[27:52] I'll second it. All right. Any discussion?
[27:57] And just to check,
[27:59] I guess, a question for me is, do we think that 5,777's adequate
[28:04] recuperate expenses for that? It worked. It typically is. I mean,
[28:08] it all depends on how much snow we get. Obviously, that's the big, big
[28:12] ticket item for that one there. Yep. Yeah.
[28:16] May not snow as
[28:17] here but fuel is okay good deal a lot of that you're up and down those streets
[28:23] anyways exactly that's a lot of what this comes from right there it makes
[28:28] more sense for us to take care of it versus leave it and ask another county to
[28:32] come up and button up a small segment so yes thank you that is a very good
[28:36] point Robert perfect yeah I have no concerns with us doing it it's just want to
[28:40] make sure we're covering ourselves to do so perfect all right we have a motion
[28:45] in a second, all those in favor, please say aye.
[28:47] All right.
[28:48] Any opposed?
[28:49] Not hearing any, that passes.
[28:51] All right.
[28:52] All
[28:56] right, 5G, a request to introduce and wave
[28:58] first reading of ordinance 654,
[29:02] an ordinance amending chapter 151 of the city code
[29:04] relating to flood plan management.
[29:07] Thank you, Chris.
[29:08] Thank you, Mr. Mayor, councilmembers.
[29:11] Yes, we recently adopted our floodplain ordinance
[29:15] that went into effect in July 21st of this year.
[29:20] That was required because the Wabusha County maps were updated.
[29:24] When we had sent in for the ordinance approval, DNR said,
[29:29] we left out the section, we said you could leave out the section, but
[29:32] you actually have this kind of floodplain.
[29:34] So we had to put the general floodplain section back into our ordinance.
[29:40] It was an oversight on both of our parts.
[29:42] We thought we didn't have any general flood plain in our little bit of flood plain we have so this just will
[29:49] Put the general flood plain section back into the ordinance and get that finalized
[30:00] All moved. Second. Any discussion?
[30:07] All right. We have motion a second to introduce and waive first reading of ordinance 654, ordinance amending chapter 151 of the city code relating to floodplain management. All those in favor, please say aye. Aye. Any opposed? Not hearing any. Thank you, Christie passes. All right. Next one or five, or yeah, five H request to introduce and waive first reading of ordinance 655.
[30:32] to amend the jewel third edition by Craig and Linda or probably what you're
[30:37] lasting my apologize for. Yes thank you this request is for an ordinance for
[30:43] a planned unit development amendment to combines lots two and three of
[30:48] block four of the jewel third edition for Craig and Linda Vonch. They would like
[30:52] to combine these lots so that they could build their dwelling on the property line
[30:57] between the two of them. This is currently a corner lot and the one next to it.
[31:03] So they're oddly shaped lots. The corner lot is larger but the one next to it is smaller.
[31:09] And so while their house may fit on the corner lot itself, it will just fit better
[31:17] where they're proposing and it will allow them to have equal space around their dwelling.
[31:22] There was a public hearing for this at the Planning Commission.
[31:26] Nobody spoke at the public hearing and we find that the request is reasonable and I recommend
[31:38] you to approve of it.
[31:41] Good.
[31:42] Do we have a motion in a second?
[31:43] It's so moved.
[31:44] Second.
[31:45] All right.
[31:46] Any discussion?
[31:50] All right.
[31:50] Not hearing any.
[31:52] All those in favour?
[31:53] Please say aye.
[31:54] Aye.
[31:55] So
[31:58] that is a waiver introducing, yeah, the first reading of the ordinance.
[32:04] So we'll have that next month, I believe, correct, for the second.
[32:07] Yep.
[32:08] Very good.
[32:09] All right.
[32:11] I think we're on to unfinished business.
[32:15] This will be a request to waive the second reading and adopt ordinance, 653, planned unit
[32:21] development amendment, PD2602, by Brian and Tracy Hinkle.
[32:26] Yes, and I have nothing further to add on this one. This is the second reading and it would just finalize the request.
[32:36] Absolutely. Very good. Do we have motion in a second?
[32:38] So moved.
[32:39] Hi, second.
[32:40] All right. Any discussion?
[32:42] Not hearing any? All those in favor? Please say aye.
[32:46] Any opposed? Not hearing any. That passes. Thank you, Christian.

[32:53] We have a number of reports in front of us for minutes,
[32:57] from various meetings. If you're the liaison, please feel free to comment as we go through.

[33:53] Are there any amendments or changes to those calendars or meeting rotation?
[34:00] Not hearing any tonight?
[34:01] Yep.
[34:01] Be sure to check the city website if those do get adjusted and if there's nothing further we'll
[34:05] call for a motion in a second to adjourn.
[34:08] I'll second.
