[1:05] » So moved.

[1:17] » Mayor Coleman. Yes. Let the record shows

Recognition of visitors and hearing of
[1:26] petitions. I don't see anybody who
submitted anything. So, we'll move on to
[1:30] old business. Um public hearing and
request for Council Action Resolution
[1:34] number 17 for 2026.
I'm going to pass this off to City
[1:38] Manager Ogden.
>> Yeah, Madam Mayor, uh you have uh before
[1:43] you an RCA um regarding the uh
city-owned property at 3101 Zelkova
[1:49] Street, um which we have been calling
Corey Park.
[1:53] As Council will recall, on the 14th of
July. There was consensus to move
[1:59] forward with the formal naming process
of Quarry Park as the proposed name.
[2:05] Um, under the city's policy for naming
public publicly owned facilities, that
[2:10] process requires a 30-day public notice
period. Uh, the notice of the proposed
[2:15] time uh, and tonight's public hearing
was published in the New Era on July
[2:19] 29th. Uh, staff has not received any
public comments uh, to date. So, tonight
[2:24] gives council the opportunity to uh,
hear any public testimony regarding the
[2:28] proposed name uh, and then make a formal
decision. So, if council approves
[2:34] resolution uh, number 17 for 2026
the property would be officially named
[2:40] uh, Quarry Park.
As far as financial impacts, there's
[2:43] really no immediate financial impact.
Um, in the future, there could be, you
[2:48] know, signage and things like that that
would need probably need to be in the
[2:51] park. Um, but
uh, it's also uh,
[2:55] noteworthy that uh, formal adoption of
the name also would not prevent future
[3:01] sponsor- sponsorship opportunities or
even future renaming if council chose to
[3:06] do so.
So, following the public hearing,
[3:10] um, staff's recommendation would be to
approve this resolution.
[3:14] » Okay. I will open the public hearing up
at 6:33 p.m.
[3:20] We've heard the staff presentation
regarding this uh, regarding 3101
[3:24] Zolkobi Street to be named Quarry Park.
I will invite testimony from those in
[3:30] favor.
[3:32] Seeing that there's no one present, I
don't hear any.
[3:36] Um, I will invite testimony of those
opposed.
[3:40] Anybody online?
Okay.
[3:43] I will invite testimony for those who
are neutral.
[3:47] And hearing none, I'll move on. We You
deliberate this item if there's any
[3:52] counselor who'd like to discuss it.
[3:56] Nope.
I will now close the public meeting at
[4:00] 7:34.
Um I can now entertain a motion to
[4:05] approve resolution number 17 if you so
desire.
[4:10] » So moved.
>> Second.
[4:12] » I have a motion and a second to approve
resolution number 17 for 2026.
[4:17] Any discussion?
[4:21] Hearing none, Cecily call roll.
>> Councilor Haigh-Ky.
[4:23] » Yes.
>> Council President Thorstad.
[4:25] » Yes.
>> Mayor Coleman.
[4:26] » Yes.
>> Councilor Bronson.
[4:28] » Yes.
>> Let the record show that there are four
[4:30] eyes and no nays to approve resolution
17 to name 3101 Azalea Court Street
[4:37] Corey Park.
Next on the business, uh request for
[4:40] council action approving a contract for
city prosecution services.
[4:46] » Madam Mayor and council, you have before
you an RCA for um approving a personal
[4:51] services agreement with Miller,
Castleton and Flynn for city prosecutor
[4:57] services. So as you're all aware, on
July 14th, after a work session, staff
[5:03] issued separate uh solicitations for the
city attorney related services including
[5:10] an R
uh RFP for uh specifically for the city
[5:15] prosecution services. Uh so we received
two responses and Miller, Castleton and
[5:20] Flynn was the highest scoring firm.
Uh this agreement provides for Catherine
[5:26] Pratt to serve as the city prosecutor
with a flat fee of $4,500 a month for
[5:32] prosecution services.
Uh the scope includes municipal court
[5:36] criminal cases, uh court appearances and
trials, coordination with the PD and
[5:42] municipal court, victim and witness
communication, discovery, case
[5:47] management, and then other related
administrative responsibilities.
[5:51] Uh the agreement runs through August
30th of 2028 with the opportunity for up
[5:57] to three additional one-year extensions.
Um and the full scope of services is in
[6:02] your packet uh and staff recommends
uh approval of the agreement with
[6:08] uh this particular firm to uh do our
prosecuting.
[6:14] » Thank you. Thank you also for seeking
out those um RFPs and we do have one
[6:19] before us with a contract attached. Um
counselors, do you have any thoughts,
[6:23] questions that you'd like to discuss?
[6:28] Hearing none, I will entertain a motion
to approve
[6:31] the contract.
[6:34] » So moved as recommended.
[6:38] » Second it.
>> So I have a motion and a second to
[6:41] approve the contract for city
prosecution services.
[6:44] Any discussion?
[6:47] Hearing none, Cecily, please call for a
vote.
[6:49] » Council President Thorstad?
>> Yes.
[6:51] » Mayor Coleman?
>> Yes.
[6:52] » Councilor Aronson?
>> Yes.
[6:54] » Councilor Heggie?
>> Yes.
[6:56] » Let the record show that we have four
eyes and no nays to approve the contract
[7:00] for city prosecution services.
Next item on the agenda, request for
[7:03] council actual action approving the
equipment and services contracts for the
[7:07] water treatment plant generators
project.
[7:10] » Yeah, Madam Mayor and council, um
this one's pretty exciting as
[7:15] uh you're aware the uh water treatment
plant generators are one of the council
[7:20] goals for the 26-27 year.
Under the viable and sustainable service
[7:26] essential services, um and so um
and you're all aware we've been working
[7:31] to secure uh these generators uh
to get connected down there. Uh so we
[7:38] did um as you're also aware get a uh
grant for these generators. There is a
[7:43] local city match, which has already been
budgeted for.
[7:46] Uh so, basically, the work for council
tonight is just a um
[7:51] um
take a look at and uh we have two
[7:54] agreements, basically. We have an
agreement with uh TAG, uh which would
[7:58] provide the generators and automatic
transfer switches along with the
[8:02] controls, electrical work, and so on um
for installation of these generators uh
[8:08] in the amount of $818,124.
And then the second agreement would be
[8:13] with Landis Consulting for the
engineering and professional services
[8:18] associated with the project. So, it
would include electrical design,
[8:22] uh some limited construction support,
uh and and other things that go along
[8:27] with that. So, in that uh Landis
agreement is a time and materials not to
[8:31] exceed $128,718.
[8:37] So, together, uh the two agreements uh
total $946,842.
[8:43] Um and these both of these contracts
would move the city forward with the
[8:47] design,
procurement, and installation required
[8:51] for the work needed to to get these
generators connected and up and running.
[8:56] So, and staff obviously recommends the
approval of both agreements.
[9:01] » Any questions from councilors regarding
this?
[9:04] » I yes, I have a question. What's the
estimated time of completion when those
[9:10] generators will be working and able to
uh
[9:13] » So, yeah, we're still a ways out. I
don't remember the exact time. Do you
[9:18] remember, Susan?
>> It's about 9 months for the purchase of
[9:20] the generators, and then probably
another month to 3 months for
[9:23] construction. So, about a year out,
then. Yeah. Correct. But, we just
[9:26] received a 2-year extension from the
feds. So, we have no concerns with the
[9:30] timeline.
[9:33] » Any other questions from councilors?
[9:39] I will entertain a motion to approve the
equipment and services contracts for the
[9:43] water treatment plant generators
project.
[9:45] » So moved as recommended.
[9:49] » I'll second that.
>> I will I have a motion and a second to
[9:53] approve this contract. Any discussion?
Hearing none, Cecily, please call for a
[9:59] vote.
>> Mayor Coleman?
[10:00] » Yes.
>> Councilor Bronson?
[10:01] » Yes.
>> Councilor Heggie?
[10:03] » Yes.
>> Council President Thurston?
[10:04] » Yes.
>> Let the record show that we have four
[10:06] eyes and no nays to approve the contract
for the water treatment plant generators
[10:10] project. And I want to say thank you to
staff for getting that going and coming
[10:14] in under budget is good as well. So,
thank you.
[10:16] » And thank you. And I want to say thank
you to Cecily for working so hard with
[10:21] with the government for the grant. It's
been um it's been a journey and um it's
[10:26] been a bit complicated at times and
she's put in a lot of hours and work for
[10:30] that. So, thank you.
>> Thank you, Cecily. Government grants are
[10:32] not fun. So, thank you for enduring
that.
[10:35] All right. Next item on the agenda is
reports of committees. Any councilors
[10:39] have something to report from the
committees that they are liaison to?
[10:42] » Uh Madam Mayor, may I?
>> Yes, please.
[10:44] » Um the parks

Um and we right now have three.
[11:12] » Okay.

[11:15] no children, but we at least need three
children and five adults.
