In fact, I think it's going to end up 155 00:12:45,090 --> 00:12:52,310 being less to outsource them and frankly we feel like right now with some of the 156 00:12:52,310 --> 00:12:56,890 changes we've already implemented, we outsource the restrooms and that seems to 157 00:12:56,890 --> 00:13:06,950 going well and it's been a positive step as far as keeping those clean and would like to 158 00:13:06,950 --> 00:13:17,390 continue with that change by amending the budget to include a larger or an increase in service 159 00:13:17,390 --> 00:13:27,530 by the contractor. The other changes are related to funding some 160 00:13:27,530 --> 00:13:33,230 park improvements. On your agenda's night, there's the opportunity to consider awarding 161 00:13:33,230 --> 00:13:41,130 some improvements for Polterpond. The original budget anticipated budgeting, only a portion 162 00:13:41,130 --> 00:13:48,390 of those improvements. Under the council's direction we actually bidded the entire park improvements 163 00:13:48,390 --> 00:13:57,870 minor minus the playground and maybe a few other amenities but more or less the park will be 164 00:13:57,870 --> 00:14:06,430 completed and the landscaping and parking lot would be essentially completed to its final envisioned 165 00:14:06,430 --> 00:14:12,090 and level of improvement and so that is one change. 166 00:14:12,210 --> 00:14:20,070 We also forthcoming will be a bid for Windsor Park to finish that and some of the preliminary 167 00:14:20,070 --> 00:14:28,610 costs that we've estimated now exceeds the amount of budget that was previously allocated 168 00:14:28,610 --> 00:14:29,930 with the original budget. 169 00:14:30,170 --> 00:14:35,090 So there's an amendment that would add some additional resources there so that we can 170 00:14:35,090 --> 00:14:39,170 and consider essentially funding all the entire improvements. 171 00:14:39,510 --> 00:14:43,170 Now, the actual amount won't be known until we go through the bidding process. 172 00:14:43,470 --> 00:14:53,790 So this is just putting us in a position to be able to essentially award what we might be the final cost there. 173 00:14:54,550 --> 00:14:59,830 I would tell you that what is being proposed here and the way that we're funding. 174 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:09,360 These amendments for the park improvements is one, we are using the, we refer to them as the 175 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:16,240 ARPA funds, but they're really a previous transfer from the general fund upwards of, I think 176 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:24,060 it's $1.7 million, and we put that in the capital projects fund on the balance sheet 177 00:15:24,060 --> 00:15:49,500 with the restriction that the City Council would need to designate a special project to expend those funds on and this would be that project and we've talked about it before. There isn't a departure, but there was a disconnect between what we intended to do and what was actually shown in the budget document being the spreadsheet itself, so that would adjust and correct that issue. 178 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:58,480 And then the other funding source would be funding all the impact fees in the fund balance. 179 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:03,740 I do not anticipate that we would expend them all, but it just allocates all of them. 180 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,840 They are restricted for specific expenses. 181 00:16:07,340 --> 00:16:13,140 So, you know, with these being, with these parks being the most significant. 182 00:16:13,740 --> 00:16:19,480 And so, I don't think there's an opportunity even though with the appropriation that they would be expended for. 183 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,980 for anything other than what's anticipated and envisioned here. 184 00:16:23,940 --> 00:16:29,680 The last budget amendment is addressing a shortfall 185 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:34,460 in the budget relative to purchasing a bucket truck. 186 00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,380 And we've talked about the bucket truck in the past. 187 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:42,980 And John is here to again revisit any questions 188 00:16:42,980 --> 00:16:45,720 that you might have relative to the need for operations. 189 00:16:45,720 --> 00:17:05,600 But we do believe that it's a fundamental piece of equipment that is needed for the city not only in public works, but I think there's some value in parks as well to potentially use that and it just allows the city a safe platform to work on on any project at height. 190 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:19,960 And we you might recall we as an alternative we explored the concept of renting the bucket truck and to the degree that we've been without a bucket truck since those conversations. 191 00:17:20,700 --> 00:17:33,280 John has reached out and tried to actually rent the bucket truck on a few projects that were, you know, that were at height greater than they felt comfortable using ladders. 192 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:39,540 the problem is that there's not a lot of bucket trucks available. 193 00:17:40,220 --> 00:17:44,100 I think they reserve them for longer periods of time for rentals. 194 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:49,600 And John can go into more depth if there's questions about that option as an alternative. 195 00:17:49,960 --> 00:18:02,080 But I think in short I would just say that it's not as accessible as we would hope to be able to access just for ongoing needs of the city. 196 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:08,320 And so for that reason, we would, again, propose consideration in funding the bucket truck. 197 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:15,380 And that's 60,000 that would be needed in addition to what's been appropriated. 198 00:18:18,020 --> 00:18:25,900 And those expenses would be met from revenue that is appropriated from just our cash reserves. 199 00:18:35,430 --> 00:18:40,330 If Mr. Childs or Treasurer has anything to add, you don't necessarily need to add anything 200 00:18:40,330 --> 00:18:44,510 unless you feel like there's something to correct or clarify or thank 201 00:18:56,030 --> 00:18:56,230 you. 202 00:18:59,770 --> 00:19:00,050 Thank you. 203 00:19:00,250 --> 00:19:00,490 Council. 204 00:19:00,790 --> 00:19:01,390 You have some questions? 205 00:19:02,790 --> 00:19:07,250 I just noticed that we added the kitchenettes to our maintenance schedule and I think that's 206 00:19:07,250 --> 00:19:07,730 a great idea. 207 00:19:07,970 --> 00:19:09,510 Thank you for doing that. 208 00:19:13,410 --> 00:19:14,150 Can I make a motion? 209 00:19:15,710 --> 00:19:16,190 Sure. 210 00:19:16,610 --> 00:19:18,110 I'll make a motion to interpublic hearing. 211 00:19:21,890 --> 00:19:24,870 We have a motion and a second for public hearing. 212 00:19:25,730 --> 00:19:26,950 All in favor, say aye. 213 00:19:27,190 --> 00:19:27,510 Aye. 214 00:19:27,870 --> 00:19:28,390 Any opposed? 215 00:19:29,350 --> 00:19:29,870 Okay. 216 00:19:30,070 --> 00:19:31,790 We are now in our public hearing. 217 00:19:32,930 --> 00:19:36,110 If anyone would like to come forward, you're welcome to come forward. 218 00:19:36,410 --> 00:19:36,790 Okay. 219 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:42,720 Seeing none. 220 00:19:43,940 --> 00:19:47,600 We'll make them have a motion to move out of our public hearing. 221 00:19:49,620 --> 00:19:50,140 Summoned. 222 00:19:50,360 --> 00:19:50,880 Second. 223 00:19:51,300 --> 00:19:52,960 We have a motion in a second. 224 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:54,440 All in favor, say aye. 225 00:19:54,780 --> 00:19:55,040 Aye. 226 00:19:55,040 --> 00:20:03,180 any opposed? Okay, we are now out of our public hearing back to item 10, action on resolution 227 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:13,800 30-2026, opening the current 2026-27, 2027 budget for certain amendments, moving forward 228 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:19,240 from the items that were discussed. So, is there any other questions or concerns that 229 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:20,320 to the council out? 230 00:20:22,460 --> 00:20:24,540 With the new cost on that bucket truck, 231 00:20:24,540 --> 00:20:26,460 have we looked at used trucks at all? 232 00:20:38,990 --> 00:20:42,590 Marin Council, as far as looking at used ones, 233 00:20:43,630 --> 00:20:45,250 the one that we're actually looking at right now 234 00:20:45,250 --> 00:20:48,170 is a 25 or 24, I mean. 235 00:20:49,650 --> 00:20:52,410 It's one that they have done that's ready to go. 236 00:20:53,630 --> 00:20:57,390 It, we actually haven't holding it just until after tonight 237 00:20:57,390 --> 00:20:58,530 until we know what's gonna happen. 238 00:21:00,030 --> 00:21:08,190 otherwise the cost would be different going forward, but it's a new vehicle. It's not. Yeah. 239 00:21:09,850 --> 00:21:14,910 It's just one of those things when we put together the budget and stuff I had received a whole 240 00:21:14,910 --> 00:21:22,310 bunch of bits and they were all complete units. So I had a number of them to go through. 241 00:21:28,070 --> 00:21:28,510 And when 242 00:21:28,510 --> 00:21:31,150 Well, then after we had got them numbers, 243 00:21:31,710 --> 00:21:33,730 we had received an email saying 244 00:21:33,730 --> 00:21:35,750 that we needed to get a truck for them. 245 00:21:36,450 --> 00:21:39,090 So then, Dwayne got a truck price. 246 00:21:39,510 --> 00:21:41,510 And so I had the truck price in one stack, 247 00:21:42,090 --> 00:21:44,250 the bucket trucks in the other stack. 248 00:21:44,530 --> 00:21:46,410 And when we had a whole bunch of other trucks 249 00:21:46,410 --> 00:21:47,330 that we were planning on getting, 250 00:21:47,530 --> 00:21:48,650 replacing some bobtails, 251 00:21:48,650 --> 00:21:50,950 just getting prices on a lot of stuff. 252 00:21:51,490 --> 00:21:53,630 We decided we weren't gonna be asking for new vehicles. 253 00:21:54,290 --> 00:21:56,370 That stack kinda got pushed aside. 254 00:21:56,370 --> 00:22:04,590 So that's how it was a miss on my part, I guess, but it was a miss that when we went through and looked at him 255 00:22:04,590 --> 00:22:09,150 I just this was the bucket truck the picture it's a whole truck. I mean, you don't just show you the bed 256 00:22:09,150 --> 00:22:12,550 So it's sitting in the truck and and that came in just like all the other ones 257 00:22:12,550 --> 00:22:19,530 But so we went with that lower bid. Well, there was a lower bid by a ways because it was missing something and that was 258 00:22:22,050 --> 00:22:27,450 Yeah, that's how that happened that won't happen that way, but again, but that's how that ended up that way 259 00:22:27,450 --> 00:22:29,270 Yeah, we couldn't eat that part of it. 260 00:22:30,050 --> 00:22:34,470 So then we had, as I went back to all the others, I was, you know, we looked at them and 261 00:22:34,470 --> 00:22:34,930 made sure. 262 00:22:35,190 --> 00:22:38,410 But all the others that I had looked at, the first ones that came through from commercial 263 00:22:38,410 --> 00:22:43,390 fleet and all of them were all one unit, it was done, you know what I mean. 264 00:22:44,050 --> 00:22:49,630 But Reddings wasn't, it was a partial, then they expected us to go purchase our own truck 265 00:22:50,570 --> 00:22:51,730 and do it, so. 266 00:22:51,730 --> 00:22:57,450 So it's just about competitive with the other trucks, the other ones you got. 267 00:22:59,350 --> 00:23:04,430 And then I just had a whole bunch of other trucks, so when that came in later on, it didn't get put in with that. 268 00:23:04,530 --> 00:23:07,750 It was two or three weeks later when that came in. 269 00:23:08,150 --> 00:23:12,810 So we got put with the trucks because we had several other vehicles that we were looking at, 270 00:23:12,950 --> 00:23:19,010 at least getting prices and stuff or options if we need to replace one of the bobtails or a dump truck or whatever. 271 00:23:19,010 --> 00:23:24,010 And then when we decided we weren't gonna get a vehicle this year, we wasn't 272 00:23:24,010 --> 00:23:29,210 take that out of the budget. I didn't take that one out of the stack. So I bet you 273 00:23:29,210 --> 00:23:34,750 had a headache after that. But I think the question you had asked was the 274 00:23:34,750 --> 00:23:38,690 competitive price, you know, knowing now that it didn't have a truck with it, is that 275 00:23:38,690 --> 00:23:42,890 still fall within the competitive price from the company that we were looking at. Yeah, 276 00:23:43,070 --> 00:23:48,630 it is. Yeah, even if we would have had to, so we're gonna use commercial fleet 277 00:23:48,630 --> 00:23:55,090 because they have one done and it's and they actually so they would that way going 278 00:23:55,090 --> 00:23:58,550 with two separate it's not I didn't want to go with a separate two different 279 00:23:58,550 --> 00:24:02,690 places because I want it to be warranty and everything under one place so if it's 280 00:24:02,690 --> 00:24:07,430 something to do with the hydraulics on the truck or the bucket or electrical on the 281 00:24:07,430 --> 00:24:12,370 vehicle it can go to one place and be taking care of so that made a lot more 282 00:24:12,370 --> 00:24:19,170 sense to do it that way. And the prices were close. I mean, if we added the truck on, I almost 283 00:24:19,170 --> 00:24:23,630 think the Reddington would have been a little more than commercial fleet. I think it was 284 00:24:23,630 --> 00:24:29,470 three or four thousand of its close, but it was a little bit more. So I just wondered, 285 00:24:29,830 --> 00:24:34,950 too, if there was a possibility of a lease of a vehicle, you know, for that as well, where we're 286 00:24:34,950 --> 00:24:40,150 starting to get more leases in and more with lease, where we could replace it, you know, and still 287 00:24:40,150 --> 00:24:44,370 utilize the bucket unit on the back. Was that never reviewed? 288 00:24:45,630 --> 00:24:51,670 No, never looked into that. I don't know if there is any kind of, if it would do something 289 00:24:51,670 --> 00:24:57,630 with the lease by putting that type of equipment on it, you know, on that kind of a chassis, 290 00:24:57,810 --> 00:25:02,090 I don't know if that would void any warranty or anything on the lease. I don't know what that 291 00:25:02,090 --> 00:25:07,050 would do. And we have to have lights ran and wigwags and different things like that because it's 292 00:25:07,050 --> 00:25:14,070 in the roads. Yeah, I don't know what you know, I just never looked at maybe leasing a chassis 293 00:25:14,070 --> 00:25:21,430 to put that type of a body on. Yeah, when I see the bucket truck, the back end has all the lighting 294 00:25:21,430 --> 00:25:25,810 and everything you need for it, right? It just needs to be wired to the chassis. Yeah, they put 295 00:25:27,170 --> 00:25:31,210 yeah, there's a lot of lights around the bed, but they do put frontal ones and either in the wind 296 00:25:31,210 --> 00:25:36,990 children down in the grill or something too but. And that's included in the price right all of the 297 00:25:36,990 --> 00:25:42,690 what they need to do to include it in the one hundred ninety five thousand is that right. I mean 298 00:25:42,690 --> 00:25:50,570 hugging it all up to the to the other part. Yeah that that at that price the one ninety five 299 00:25:51,130 --> 00:25:54,850 yeah that's everything's done in fact I don't even think it's I think the truck that we're 300 00:25:54,850 --> 00:26:04,850 having them hold a little less than that quite a bit less, but I just never thought you'd sell it in two pieces. That's why well, I 301 00:26:06,130 --> 00:26:14,070 shouldn't know. I mean, there's we do bob tells and dump trucks that way. I mean, that's normal, but it's the way they had all come in. 302 00:26:14,470 --> 00:26:21,970 They didn't they were all one unit except for the one. So it's just and when I found out I had our attack. 303 00:26:26,630 --> 00:26:31,870 So I just jumped on Google real quick and the first dealership came up with 16 of them ranging 304 00:26:31,870 --> 00:26:38,910 anywhere from 50,000 all the way up to 119,000. 119,000 were brand new. 2023 zero miles. 305 00:26:39,230 --> 00:26:43,990 I mean, I'm just wondering if we looked at other options instead of going to $195,000 new one. 306 00:26:45,410 --> 00:26:48,910 You need it and I'm all for that because there's lots of options. 307 00:26:48,910 --> 00:26:53,290 So we're looking at, what was you look dispollin' up about that bucket truck or just the chassis? 308 00:26:53,630 --> 00:26:55,670 It's complete units, complete trucks. 309 00:26:56,610 --> 00:26:58,490 What the buckets and everything on them? 310 00:26:58,790 --> 00:26:58,890 Yes. 311 00:27:00,510 --> 00:27:04,090 I'm just saying there's options out there that aren't bullet bread do, 312 00:27:04,310 --> 00:27:06,430 but I don't think this is a daily use vehicle. 313 00:27:06,650 --> 00:27:08,750 And I'm just wondering if we looked at some options. 314 00:27:09,890 --> 00:27:11,070 Yeah, that's a good price. 315 00:27:11,630 --> 00:27:14,870 That would fall in the money we have. 316 00:27:15,190 --> 00:27:18,270 So let me go to this next one right here. 317 00:27:18,270 --> 00:27:23,250 So this one right here's a 2023 brand new 550 and 147 318 00:27:24,570 --> 00:27:28,610 There's just a few options out there. You know, we couldn't hold it. We just know that route too 319 00:27:28,610 --> 00:27:33,050 When we just went to the other the next bidders and stuff that we had so I didn't 320 00:27:33,890 --> 00:27:37,010 And contact them and say we still honor this because the bids were 321 00:27:37,510 --> 00:27:38,370 quite a way to go 322 00:27:38,370 --> 00:27:39,150 You know 323 00:27:39,670 --> 00:27:40,290 Over there 324 00:27:40,290 --> 00:27:43,950 They get some really months or whatever it was passed and he says well 325 00:27:44,770 --> 00:27:48,010 We have this 25 I think it's 24. He says but we know that 326 00:27:48,770 --> 00:27:51,790 But after that it's going to be, it could be a lot more, 327 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:56,800 maybe we should look into those 328 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,220 a little bit more, make sure. 329 00:27:58,700 --> 00:28:01,660 Even if it's on the other side of the country and we, you know, spend five grand to ship 330 00:28:01,660 --> 00:28:04,740 it over here, I mean, we still could be saving 50, 60 grand. 331 00:28:04,900 --> 00:28:05,960 We can look into that first. 332 00:28:06,360 --> 00:28:08,940 Yeah, if you don't mind, I would encourage that. 333 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:09,300 Yeah. 334 00:28:09,700 --> 00:28:11,780 We can look, shop it around, see what we can find. 335 00:28:12,100 --> 00:28:17,360 I mean, I don't go into the 1988 or anything like that, but why not, for me, that you're 336 00:28:17,360 --> 00:28:18,680 Any rest? 337 00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:19,820 Frank on the front. 338 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:20,760 That's right. 339 00:28:22,260 --> 00:28:23,720 Anyway, yeah, we can do that. 340 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:25,100 We're looking at that. 341 00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:27,000 Okay. 342 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:27,740 Anything else? 343 00:28:28,100 --> 00:28:29,120 Any other questions for? 344 00:28:31,810 --> 00:28:33,390 So, Sean, how do we do that? 345 00:28:33,590 --> 00:28:35,650 Taking that part out of demanding the budget? 346 00:28:36,390 --> 00:28:36,750 I would. 347 00:28:38,010 --> 00:28:39,690 You know, depends on your comfort level. 348 00:28:39,850 --> 00:28:42,170 I guess from an administrative perspective, 349 00:28:42,170 --> 00:28:44,170 it would be great if you would just amend the budget 350 00:28:44,170 --> 00:28:48,590 as proposed with the requirement that, you know, 351 00:28:48,590 --> 00:29:03,250 are directive that we, you know, whatever that would be. However, you want to phrase the directive and then we could essentially have the flexibility and we could report back before we purchased if you would feel comfortable in that regard. 352 00:29:03,730 --> 00:29:13,870 And so then you can know, you know, what we were able to determine and and and make sure that your request was was, you know, satisfied. 353 00:29:13,870 --> 00:29:19,510 I think on a sizable amount of savings, yeah, that's definitely what we're looking for. 354 00:29:19,770 --> 00:29:25,070 We want to try and save because we have a lot of expenses that will apply towards a budget. 355 00:29:25,290 --> 00:29:28,610 We want to make sure that we're utilizing the funds to the maximum. 356 00:29:28,930 --> 00:29:34,670 So I appreciate Councilman Schwaplik in that up real quick, but I figured either Elise 357 00:29:34,670 --> 00:29:40,590 are working with this because it was it was missed in the budget and we want to make sure 358 00:29:40,590 --> 00:29:46,510 that they get what they need but we also want to make sure that we're spending you know a fair amount 359 00:29:47,230 --> 00:29:53,090 that is not over and above what we could maybe get it or something else and I agree you can't 360 00:29:53,090 --> 00:29:59,890 ship those usually pretty easily across country and I think most of the vehicle I recently got that to do 361 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:16,320 So I think that's one of the situations that we can definitely do. So I think that would be maybe the next move. It's just looking to that a little bit more to make sure. Is there any other items on the budget changes that the council would like to have a discussion before we close this out? 362 00:30:26,910 --> 00:30:36,490 On Windsor Park on there. Is there? Can I ask a question to you, Mr. Randall? You mind coming up? I just want to check on that. 363 00:30:41,340 --> 00:30:43,740 I wanted to just ask if you don't mind. 364 00:30:43,740 --> 00:30:51,920 We were going to do a lot of the general things on when they were parked, maybe help save some money there, but we still in process of doing that. 365 00:30:52,320 --> 00:31:01,040 So we're bidding the project as a whole, just based on numbers that we received from a contractor that kind of gave us an estimate of what it could be done for. 366 00:31:02,620 --> 00:31:11,900 We don't know what, as Sean mentioned, we won't know exactly what that will be until we get bids back, but right now we're sending the whole project to bid to see what that looks at. 367 00:31:11,900 --> 00:31:13,780 based on what we received back from there. 368 00:31:13,900 --> 00:31:16,280 I think that's when we would have discussion on 369 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:18,600 what it would look like if we need to modify 370 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,100 how we go to construction. 371 00:31:20,860 --> 00:31:22,060 So when we're looking at, you know, 372 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:25,560 we're looking at like $750,000 for that park. 373 00:31:25,820 --> 00:31:28,360 That's a lot of money, you know, to try and put it together. 374 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:30,240 So I guess I'm trying to understand 375 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:33,760 if we're amending the budget to that level. 376 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:37,800 Well, we're appropriating that amount of money. 377 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:44,720 So to answer your question specifically, yes, we're appropriating that amount of money. 378 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:46,220 It is in one line item. 379 00:31:46,420 --> 00:31:53,360 It's in, I think the expense slide item is Mark's capital projects, you know, impact fees. 380 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:57,100 And so it is specific to impact fee related projects. 381 00:31:57,460 --> 00:32:03,840 And really, we wouldn't spend that money, obviously unnecessarily, we're going to go through 382 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:10,480 competitive bid process and the prices will be what and ultimately you'll 383 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:15,140 award it but I'd anticipate it'd be the lowest of all the bids which right 384 00:32:15,140 --> 00:32:20,420 now we're estimating we had to estimate based on I think we're coming in at 385 00:32:20,420 --> 00:32:33,180 2.4 or 2.1 I don't remember the exact number but it hovers right about 2.4 and I 386 00:32:33,180 --> 00:32:37,760 You might recall the funding sources there is a half a million dollars from Rant Grant 387 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:45,100 which is terrific and then the other one was the special projects, about 1.7 million and 388 00:32:45,100 --> 00:32:51,240 so this just gives us a big margin of error and so I guess you could always reduce that if 389 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:56,320 you don't feel comfortable with it but I felt comfortable with it knowing that it's restricted 390 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,200 for specifically for impact fees. 391 00:33:00,060 --> 00:33:05,120 Yeah, I'm trying to just make sure, because if we go out to competitive bid, then we're 392 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:09,020 going to make an award, which means that they would get that project correct. 393 00:33:09,620 --> 00:33:16,040 You can refuse the bids, is that an option then, is that what you're looking at as a possible 394 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:16,600 option? 395 00:33:16,860 --> 00:33:19,840 Yeah, well, it would be up to the Council to decide if they wanted to utilize all those 396 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:20,080 funds. 397 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:23,680 My understanding is we have the ramp grant for 500 and then it would have been the traditional 398 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:27,640 ARPA funds that were shifted over to be able to execute on that. 399 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:31,840 as we've talked about Windsor for the last few years, this just gives us a real life approach 400 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:36,600 as far as what a contractor is going to say it's going to cost to do the park. If it's something 401 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:40,860 that the council doesn't want, they can reject all bids, we can re-bid with the idea that we look 402 00:33:40,860 --> 00:33:44,480 to be the general ourselves and then try to find a way to piece that together. 403 00:33:45,420 --> 00:33:49,120 I just wanted to bounce back a little bit as we have that discussion, right? 404 00:33:49,620 --> 00:33:49,720 Sure. 405 00:33:49,860 --> 00:33:52,400 And so, and I was trying to think if it would be, you know, 406 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:57,300 haven't they just try and save some funding if it made sense? We don't want to 407 00:33:57,300 --> 00:34:03,600 delay the project out longer. I have real-time experience without 408 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:07,460 understanding. When I decided I wanted to do a project and it ends up taking 409 00:34:07,460 --> 00:34:10,380 a little longer versus having a contract to come in and whip it out in a 410 00:34:10,380 --> 00:34:15,120 couple of days. It takes longer but I wanted to make sure we're just utilizing the funding. 411 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:20,180 With the understanding of what the budget might have been with the 2.2 that's 412 00:34:20,180 --> 00:34:22,100 when we thought we should try to get an estimate. 413 00:34:22,300 --> 00:34:24,920 So we asked a contractor from Salt Lake City 414 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:25,820 that's done a little bit of work. 415 00:34:25,820 --> 00:34:27,680 He actually did Salt Point for Woodside. 416 00:34:28,220 --> 00:34:31,620 We asked for an estimate of maybe what that would look like. 417 00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,760 So we sent him the scope and he said it back with numbers 418 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:36,180 and it was about 2.4. 419 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,940 And so with that in mind, we thought with that budget, 420 00:34:39,500 --> 00:34:41,980 maybe we would see what it would actually come in with contractors. 421 00:34:42,260 --> 00:34:44,740 So, different area that doesn't work up here a lot. 422 00:34:44,860 --> 00:34:46,080 If we had some local contractors, 423 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,180 we were quite intrigued to see if maybe we could hit 424 00:34:48,180 --> 00:34:52,760 the budget amount with the estimate shown, and I agreed that maybe we look at trying to 425 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:57,080 hit that 2.4 with the idea that maybe we do. We don't know what will come in at. We 426 00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:00,740 don't know who will bid on it, and we don't know what their timeframes or, you know, some 427 00:35:00,740 --> 00:35:03,660 people will bid for different purposes. They could come in really high just because they're 428 00:35:03,660 --> 00:35:07,640 very busy, but they still want to bid on the project to see. So we really don't know what 429 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:10,840 will come in at. It couldn't answer that. It could come in higher than that, and then 430 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:14,340 we'd be looking at rejecting and saying, okay, how do we want to attack this differently? 431 00:35:14,340 --> 00:35:19,840 Okay. Yeah, I don't know about the rest of the council. I know that, you know, it's your 432 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:24,620 choices as council, but I'd like to just walk through that a little bit closer as we 433 00:35:24,620 --> 00:35:30,240 get to that point to see where we're at because I think it is a lot of money as we want to 434 00:35:30,240 --> 00:35:37,080 try and utilize it. So if that in mind, are we looking at delaying that process of going 435 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:43,140 to bid and I don't think we need to delay it. I think I just need to understand where it lands 436 00:35:43,140 --> 00:35:48,500 so that we can figure out, is it make more sense for the city to get involved with it more 437 00:35:49,100 --> 00:35:52,060 as a general, or do we just get it fixed up? 438 00:35:52,420 --> 00:35:57,120 We have talked about that idea that we may very well end up doing that depending on what 439 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:57,660 it comes in. 440 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:02,960 Initially with the bid from the designer, it was, if you remember, it was in the multiple 441 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:03,500 millions. 442 00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:08,860 It's significant like four times more millions than with on the table right now, so we would 443 00:36:08,860 --> 00:36:11,980 just like to see maybe what it comes in at and see what the actual 444 00:36:11,980 --> 00:36:16,400 goal versus what the design estimates were and then make the best decision we can. 445 00:36:16,720 --> 00:36:19,640 So generally in ourselves, it's definitely been something we've talked about and 446 00:36:19,640 --> 00:36:23,000 potentially be prepared to do. Okay, I appreciate it. Thanks for 447 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:25,840 you bet. No, I just wanted to ask the question, make sure we were there. 448 00:36:26,180 --> 00:36:27,740 Yeah, plus I didn't want John to feel bad. 449 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:35,260 Well, but will you keep his abreast of that a little bit? 450 00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:36,280 Yeah, absolutely. 451 00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:36,440 Absolutely. 452 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:37,840 Obviously, when we get to that point. 453 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:38,160 Yep. 454 00:36:38,540 --> 00:36:42,200 And I think that would be for Council to review that a little bit more. 455 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:42,560 Yes. 456 00:36:43,060 --> 00:36:43,160 Okay. 457 00:36:43,540 --> 00:36:47,060 I would say, Mr. Mayor, I'm trying to find the date, but I do believe that it's slated 458 00:36:47,060 --> 00:36:50,560 for October 1st meeting in October. 459 00:36:51,180 --> 00:36:51,400 Yeah. 460 00:36:51,660 --> 00:36:56,420 September 9th, I think, is when we were launching for or putting out for bid. 461 00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,040 And I do believe it was the first Council meeting in October. 462 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,820 I don't remember the date, but I believe it was the first Council meeting in October. 463 00:37:26,970 --> 00:37:40,850 I'll make a motion to approve resolution 30-2026 opening the current 2026-2027 budget for certain amendments with the contingency. 464 00:37:40,850 --> 00:37:46,650 Is that the right word of John looking at other options for the bucket truck? 465 00:37:48,150 --> 00:37:48,630 Second. 466 00:37:49,250 --> 00:37:49,730 Okay. 467 00:37:49,970 --> 00:37:50,890 We have a motion in a second. 468 00:37:51,550 --> 00:37:52,510 Any further discussion? 469 00:37:54,170 --> 00:37:54,650 Okay. 470 00:37:55,250 --> 00:37:56,590 We'll do a real call on this one. 471 00:37:56,730 --> 00:37:57,430 Council Member Dixon. 472 00:37:57,690 --> 00:37:57,810 Aye. 473 00:37:57,950 --> 00:37:58,690 Council Member Schwap. 474 00:37:58,850 --> 00:37:59,010 Aye. 475 00:37:59,210 --> 00:37:59,890 And Council Member Call. 476 00:38:00,130 --> 00:38:00,290 Aye. 477 00:38:00,610 --> 00:38:01,510 Motion carries on that. 478 00:38:01,890 --> 00:38:03,770 The Sean, you got your movement. 479 00:38:03,990 --> 00:38:04,310 Move forward. 480 00:38:04,630 --> 00:38:04,950 Thank you. 481 00:38:05,090 --> 00:38:05,270 All right. 482 00:38:06,130 --> 00:38:07,550 Item 11 on here. 483 00:38:07,650 --> 00:38:10,190 Action on Resolution 31-2026. 484 00:38:10,190 --> 00:38:19,810 The six amending the memorandum of understanding with Nielsen Holmes on applying the order of contingency for the Polterpond project. 485 00:38:20,570 --> 00:38:26,830 And on this one, it was recommended by city manager to possibly table this for. 486 00:38:27,410 --> 00:38:30,130 I mean, quite prepared.

And that'll be possibly prepared for next time maybe. 497 00:39:01,690 --> 00:39:02,430 Oh, good. 498 00:39:02,430 --> 00:39:30,930 Hopefully. It's not me that I'm waiting on. Okay. All right. I just thought I'd throw that in. All right, item 12 on here. Action on resolution 32-2026 awarding the bid for improvements to the pond located in the Polter family open space preserve. And we have Mr. Randall on that or is that pretty. You know, I could speak to it and we could certainly. 499 00:39:33,290 --> 00:39:41,470 and add to it, but essentially City Council at an earlier council meeting, as we discussed, 500 00:39:41,870 --> 00:39:49,510 Polterpond, requested that we bid all phases of the project, and we did do that. 501 00:39:49,730 --> 00:39:56,910 We bidded in schedules, and due to the way that it was bidded, we had multiple contractors 502 00:39:56,910 --> 00:40:09,770 bid on the different schedules and what that yielded was essentially one 503 00:40:09,770 --> 00:40:16,110 contractor to do. I think it was A and A and C and then the lowest bid for 504 00:40:16,110 --> 00:40:20,110 schedule B was a different contractor. So there are going to need to be some 505 00:40:20,110 --> 00:40:25,690 coordination efforts between the two contractors but we do think it's a 506 00:40:25,690 --> 00:40:32,830 project that, you know, can still be coordinated and completed at the lowest possible rate. 507 00:40:33,970 --> 00:40:41,170 Anyways, I was pretty excited to see the bids come in and essentially to make, you know, 508 00:40:41,270 --> 00:40:48,910 significant progress on the completion of the park. And by awarding this bid with all pre-schedules, 509 00:40:48,910 --> 00:41:00,290 and would accomplish more or less completing the park with the option to continue to evaluate the need for playground or the desire for playground in future years. 510 00:41:01,390 --> 00:41:06,630 Yeah, because of the different bids on here, it's going to be a coordination effort for sure. 511 00:41:07,970 --> 00:41:16,350 Trees and everything, other things that are being taken care of so is that part of something you guys will be managing and working with these groups? 512 00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:30,000 We anticipate kind of a pre-construction meeting where we try to get both construction groups 513 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:34,540 there so we can kind of understand and work and some of that was talked about with all 514 00:41:34,540 --> 00:41:39,420 the contractors that bid in our pre-bid meeting that we had on site kind of understanding 515 00:41:39,420 --> 00:41:43,400 that depending on how this goes, you could win two different portions of the landscaping 516 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:49,580 specifically where the biggest concern will be and so we'll have a pre-construction meeting 517 00:41:49,580 --> 00:41:54,620 to kind of go over that, and then it'll be something where we'll be monitoring it aggressively 518 00:41:54,620 --> 00:41:58,840 as we go hitting timelines. That'll be one of the other challenges that we have is trying to 519 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:03,120 coordinate all the different contractors, or the two different contractors, I guess I should say, 520 00:42:03,420 --> 00:42:08,980 with the weather. That plays an integral part at Polter just because the material that's there, 521 00:42:09,240 --> 00:42:14,640 and it's going into fall, so depending on how wet the spring is and whatnot. So that'll be something 522 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,040 that will have to be worked through, 523 00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,060 we'll hope for favorable conditions to be able to, 524 00:42:18,420 --> 00:42:20,160 well, same my favorable, we need water. 525 00:42:20,940 --> 00:42:23,160 So we'll just have to manage that the best that we can. 526 00:42:23,460 --> 00:42:25,860 So, but we're prepared to understand that as we've gone to bed, 527 00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:27,300 we knew that this was a potential. 528 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:29,560 So we've been kind of banking on the possibility 529 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:30,320 that it could happen. 530 00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:32,460 What was the start date again? 531 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:34,220 Well, that's it again, the start date. 532 00:42:38,430 --> 00:42:41,710 Well, I know, I don't know if we have an official start date 533 00:42:41,710 --> 00:42:42,630 with them. 534 00:42:42,790 --> 00:42:44,330 I know that they've reached out to Garner. 535 00:42:44,330 --> 00:42:48,990 I do know that they would like to start as soon as possible. So we'll be with them in the morning 536 00:42:49,530 --> 00:42:54,590 To talk to them to kind of get some timelines, but I do know that they would like to start phase one as soon as possible 537 00:42:55,310 --> 00:43:04,190 The completion date though that might be more completion date is June June 30th. That's what I understood to June 30th 538 00:43:04,730 --> 00:43:05,650 What was that again? 539 00:43:07,210 --> 00:43:11,370 With on record is that on the record like that? Yeah, it's called the 29th 540 00:43:13,430 --> 00:43:17,850 All right. Any questions for the council, Mr. Randall? 541 00:43:27,290 --> 00:43:29,710 Nothing? Okay. I think we're done. Thank you. 542 00:43:31,310 --> 00:43:36,910 All right. Ready for a motion. If there's no other comments. 543 00:43:38,770 --> 00:43:46,110 I would move to adopt resolution 32-2026 awarding the bid improvements to the pond located in the 544 00:43:46,110 --> 00:43:51,650 The Polter Pond Family Open Space Preserve, Schedule A would be awarded to Marathon Maintenance 545 00:43:51,650 --> 00:43:59,710 for $424,907.35. Schedule B would be awarded to strong excavating and construction, 546 00:44:00,670 --> 00:44:11,590 for $235,513.39. Schedule C would be awarded to Marathon Maintenance for $114,688.30. 547 00:44:12,930 --> 00:44:16,750 second. Okay, we have a motion and second. Any further discussion on this resolution? 548 00:44:18,070 --> 00:44:20,430 Okay, we'll do a roll call on this one. Council Member Schwap. 549 00:44:20,670 --> 00:44:23,850 Aye. Council Member Call. Aye. Council Member Dixon. Aye. 550 00:44:24,190 --> 00:44:30,870 Okay, motion carries on that. So looking forward to that. It started on that. Item 13, action on 551 00:44:30,870 --> 00:44:36,830 resolution 33-2026. First amendment to the local transportation funding agreement regarding 552 00:44:36,830 --> 00:44:43,850 including the 5100 West, 4000 South Intersection Project between the city and Weaver County. 553 00:44:46,340 --> 00:44:53,160 Mr. Marin Council, the city staff requested from WACOG that we can solidate the traffic 554 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:59,800 like portion into the general project of construction. 555 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:29,940 5,100 South and the 3,300 South, 5,100 West, 3,300 South Project. And they requested that or they accepted that request. And it doesn't change the scope of work or the cost themselves. It just makes it easier to maintain and to, well, to essentially administer those funds because both of the projects are being constructed simultaneously. And for that, 556 00:45:29,940 --> 00:45:33,540 that reason it is hopeful for it to be considered one project. 557 00:45:34,040 --> 00:45:35,520 They are making great strides. 558 00:45:36,140 --> 00:45:41,840 I think John potentially has some images that he can continue to send, but more or less 559 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:46,160 the majority of the improvements along the 5100 West corridor are complete. 560 00:45:47,140 --> 00:45:54,300 And we're still working on the acquisition portion around the traffic signal at that intersection 561 00:45:54,300 --> 00:46:03,880 of 4,500 West but the projects moving along and getting completed and again this would 562 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:08,060 be help administratively to manage the projects as one project. 563 00:46:10,500 --> 00:46:13,160 Thank you. Questions from 564 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:13,500 the council? 565 00:46:20,810 --> 00:46:26,130 No, I would just like to note that in the actual resolution under section 2 item 566 00:46:26,130 --> 00:46:34,790 one there's just a typo says 4400 south and it should say 4,000 south and also on the page that says 567 00:46:34,790 --> 00:46:38,650 attachment A should be changed to say 4,000 south. Those 568 00:46:43,670 --> 00:46:46,450 notations, we'll get those changed on 569 00:46:46,450 --> 00:46:46,830 there before. 570 00:46:49,240 --> 00:46:53,380 Otherwise I don't have any questions. Okay. Anything else or anyone? 571 00:46:55,490 --> 00:46:56,230 If not I'm ready for 572 00:46:56,230 --> 00:46:56,550 motion. 573 00:47:01,190 --> 00:47:09,010 Make a motion to adopt resolution 33-2026. The first amendment to the local transportation 574 00:47:09,010 --> 00:47:15,270 funding agreement regarding the 5100 West 4000 South intersection between the city and 575 00:47:15,270 --> 00:47:22,530 Weaver County noting to update those addresses in the resolution. Second. Okay, we have a motion 576 00:47:22,530 --> 00:47:28,590 in a second. Any further discussion from the council on this resolution? No, we'll do a roll call 577 00:47:28,590 --> 00:47:30,130 on this one. Councilmember call. Hi. 578 00:47:30,490 --> 00:47:31,750 Councilmember Dixon. Hi. 579 00:47:31,910 --> 00:47:32,890 Councilmember Schwab. Hi. 580 00:47:33,150 --> 00:47:34,890 Okay. Motion carries on that. Thank you. 581 00:47:35,450 --> 00:47:38,790 Item 14. Action on Resolution 34-2026. 582 00:47:39,430 --> 00:47:43,750 Second amendment to the local transportation funding agreement regarding the 5100 West 583 00:47:43,750 --> 00:47:48,330 and 3300 South Project between the city and Weber County. 584 00:47:54,150 --> 00:47:58,790 I was going to say, Mr. Mayor, this is related directly to what we just discussed. 585 00:47:58,790 --> 00:48:05,590 and so the way that Brooke configured the amendments and Brooke is the administrator of the Wake-Hog 586 00:48:05,590 --> 00:48:11,670 funds, she configured it this way. So same explanation applies. 587 00:48:14,330 --> 00:48:15,590 Questions from the council? 588 00:48:19,630 --> 00:48:22,190 That's right. Perfect. 589 00:48:24,670 --> 00:48:30,000 I'll make a motion to approve Resolution 34-2026. The second amendment to 590 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:37,120 local transportation funding agreement regarding the 5,100 West 3300 South project between the city and 591 00:48:37,120 --> 00:48:37,780 Weber County. 592 00:48:41,170 --> 00:48:46,190 Second. Okay, we have motion a second. Any further discussion from the council on 593 00:48:46,190 --> 00:48:46,870 this resolution? 594 00:48:49,020 --> 00:48:52,660 ACNN then we'll do a roll call on this one. Councilmember Dickson. I. 595 00:48:52,860 --> 00:48:58,430 Councilmember Schwab. Hi. Councilmember Call. Hi. A motion carries. Thank you. Item 15 action on 596 00:48:58,430 --> 00:49:04,290 resolution 35-2026, the termination of lease agreement between Jennifer L. 597 00:49:04,550 --> 00:49:09,050 French, living trust, and James A. French, living trust, and the city of West 598 00:49:09,050 --> 00:49:15,170 Haven. Mr. Nelson, did you want to take that one? Yeah, I can provide an 599 00:49:15,170 --> 00:49:17,010 introduction and some background information. 600 00:49:19,670 --> 00:49:21,870 So West Haven entered into a lease 601 00:49:21,870 --> 00:49:30,070 agreement with the French family on September 4th of 2023 for a dedicated section of right 602 00:49:30,070 --> 00:49:38,430 of way that ran adjacent to their property. The agreements terms were from 2023 to 2013 to 2023, 603 00:49:38,430 --> 00:49:43,930 and then on a month-to-month basis after that, for at least payment of $1 per year. 604 00:49:45,890 --> 00:49:50,350 A few years ago, I think it's important to note that a few years ago, the city had asked the 605 00:49:50,350 --> 00:49:55,150 the property owner to vacate partial of that right away property, which they did comply 606 00:49:55,150 --> 00:50:00,270 with at that time, and now are occupying about half of the current dedication that's adjacent 607 00:50:00,270 --> 00:50:01,110 to their property. 608 00:50:03,670 --> 00:50:09,770 So the thing that's triggering, so at this, the city has written up a resolution, 609 00:50:12,070 --> 00:50:12,770 to authorize 610 00:50:12,770 --> 00:50:17,750 the city manager to terminate this lease agreement according to the terms within it within 611 00:50:17,750 --> 00:50:24,770 the agreement. The catalyst for this request is the development that is located just north of 612 00:50:25,410 --> 00:50:32,870 their property and that this right-of-way stubs into is looking to amend their current subdivision 613 00:50:32,870 --> 00:50:39,410 plot. Right now it's the I don't really know how to pronounce the name of this subdivision. 614 00:50:39,410 --> 00:50:48,330 It's Kirchavali V. Subdivision currently connects into the Rosewood road with a private 615 00:50:48,330 --> 00:50:54,910 roadway. That was and the subdivision was approved back in 2021. The developer and the 616 00:50:54,910 --> 00:51:06,370 owner of the subdivision has came in and requested to access the RTU to a private roadway to 617 00:51:06,370 --> 00:51:14,510 to do a full dedication of public roadway and to build a cul-de-sac, which complies 618 00:51:14,510 --> 00:51:17,330 more further with our standards. 619 00:51:18,590 --> 00:51:23,410 The main concern that the applicant has brought up is just the concerns about maintaining 620 00:51:23,410 --> 00:51:25,090 a private road between the four lots. 621 00:51:26,070 --> 00:51:31,130 So doing so, they would need access to a full right of way. 622 00:51:31,130 --> 00:51:36,430 They have provided a, the, the, the, Kurtzavelli amended 623 00:51:36,430 --> 00:51:38,750 plan. They've provided some updated construction 624 00:51:38,750 --> 00:51:43,090 drawings and they're about ready for approval, which we go 625 00:51:43,090 --> 00:51:45,790 to the planning commission. And so this time, we've brought 626 00:51:45,790 --> 00:51:49,230 forth a termination, the resolution to terminate the 627 00:51:49,230 --> 00:51:53,870 least agreement. So the developer could access that right 628 00:51:53,870 --> 00:51:58,510 of way. So there are a couple terms that I think is important 629 00:51:58,510 --> 00:52:03,950 to consider as we look at this lease agreement, these are highlighted within the staff report, 630 00:52:03,950 --> 00:52:10,510 so I won't touch on all of them. And I've talked a little bit about it already, so I won't talk 631 00:52:10,510 --> 00:52:16,350 about everyone that's listed in there. But generally speaking, as mentioned, the lease agreement was 632 00:52:16,350 --> 00:52:23,350 from 2013 to 2023, then on a month-to-month basis after that. And lease payment was for $1 per year. 633 00:52:23,350 --> 00:52:29,890 the LEC has made all the required annual payments. Under the terms of termination, there are two 634 00:52:29,890 --> 00:52:34,970 sections of the agreement that I think are important. The first one is an item seven, which reads 635 00:52:34,970 --> 00:52:41,810 LEC agrees to maintain the property in a clean and sanitary manner and not to make any alterations 636 00:52:41,810 --> 00:52:47,330 to the property of us. These are in a consent. At the termination of the LEC, the LEC agrees to leave 637 00:52:47,330 --> 00:52:53,370 the property in the same condition as or better condition than when it was received 638 00:52:53,370 --> 00:52:59,430 except for a normal wear and tear and subject to proper authorization for any improvements 639 00:52:59,430 --> 00:53:00,710 installed by the leaseee. 640 00:53:01,850 --> 00:53:08,870 So essentially, once the lease is terminated, the property owner is required to remove 641 00:53:08,870 --> 00:53:16,810 their stuff off the property and to return it to a like similar state as when it was released 642 00:53:16,810 --> 00:53:24,350 to them. Then under section one, our section 21, which is the last section within the agreement, 643 00:53:24,810 --> 00:53:29,670 it states that any other provisions in this lease to the contrary, notwithstanding the city 644 00:53:29,670 --> 00:53:34,930 shall have the unilateral right to terminate this lease with not less than 30 days notice for any 645 00:53:34,930 --> 00:53:40,130 valid government purpose, the city shall determine in their sole discretion what constitutes a valid 646 00:53:40,130 --> 00:53:41,690 governmental purpose. 647 00:53:43,770 --> 00:53:49,870 So to speak to that a little bit I've kind of indicated the why this is being 648 00:53:49,870 --> 00:53:55,670 brought now and kind of the catalyst for this. So it's in staff's opinion that providing roadways 649 00:53:55,670 --> 00:54:00,710 and access to homes for future government is a valid government purpose. Our subdivision code 650 00:54:00,710 --> 00:54:09,390 itself requires that developers stub roadways into adjacent properties to provide that access. As I'm 651 00:54:09,390 --> 00:54:20,070 seen in 156.055 subsection A, and then it also requires that that streets and alleys 652 00:54:20,070 --> 00:54:24,310 and cul-de-sac season of that streets and subdivisions shall be dedicated and this 653 00:54:24,310 --> 00:54:32,270 is under 156.056 subsection A requires that these roads within subdivisions are dedicated 654 00:54:32,270 --> 00:54:39,290 it as public streets, except for within approved P-R-U-Ds. 655 00:54:40,490 --> 00:54:46,950 And so with that being said, staff recommends that the Council can review the current, the 656 00:54:46,950 --> 00:54:55,410 review of the lease agreement and the recommendations for why we would want to terminate the lease 657 00:54:55,990 --> 00:54:58,690 and then would recommend making a motion on such. 658 00:54:58,690 --> 00:55:04,250 I will point out that the French family we have had some discussions with them, and they are in attendance tonight. 659 00:55:06,330 --> 00:55:09,670 Thank you. All right, questions from the council. 660 00:55:18,930 --> 00:55:19,330 No questions? 661 00:55:20,810 --> 00:55:29,010 Okay. Well, I was just looking at the police agreement and your signatures back then were wonderful, by the way. 662 00:55:30,370 --> 00:55:38,330 Well, both of you. Great signature. But anyway, I guess we're ready for a motion then to direct this. 663 00:55:40,030 --> 00:55:43,730 I would just like to know how you pronounce the name of your subdivision. 664 00:55:44,970 --> 00:55:48,450 Oh, sorry. Yeah, we're just the French family. Okay, sorry. 665 00:55:48,990 --> 00:55:50,950 I was moving too quickly. 666 00:55:52,010 --> 00:55:56,410 Okay, I will make a motion to a pre-resolution 35-2026. 667 00:55:56,410 --> 00:56:02,150 the termination of lease agreement between Jennifer L. French Living Trust and James A. French Living 668 00:56:02,150 --> 00:56:03,770 Trust and the City of West Haven. 669 00:56:08,100 --> 00:56:11,680 Second. Okay, we have a motion and a second. Any further discussion 670 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:12,360 from the council? 671 00:56:14,900 --> 00:56:17,340 Okay, we'll do a roll call on this one. Councilmember Dixon.

They got timed an 673 00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:28,100 an effort to get things taken care of on that property. 674 00:56:28,720 --> 00:56:31,640 So the resolution authorizes the city manager 675 00:56:31,640 --> 00:56:33,440 to mail out the official notice. 676 00:56:33,780 --> 00:56:37,500 So I'll work with Sean and the developer 677 00:56:37,500 --> 00:56:40,000 about the timing of when that termination needs to go out. 678 00:56:42,250 --> 00:56:44,300 That worked okay for everybody, okay. 679 00:56:44,920 --> 00:56:46,360 Sorry you're losing that property. 680 00:56:46,720 --> 00:56:48,360 I know you had some nice buildings on there, 681 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:52,100 but hopefully it wasn't overcharged, right? 682 00:56:52,420 --> 00:56:53,560 A dollar a year isn't too bad. 683 00:56:54,780 --> 00:57:03,400 And then I guess you got a refund coming right? They have a refund coming back. Yeah, so get ready for that. I don't know how you don't spend it, but okay. 684 00:57:03,820 --> 00:57:12,580 But thanks for being here. Sorry, we should have bumped you up a little bit. I thought you guys were the branches, but I thought man, we should have moved you up on that. But thanks for sitting through the whole thing. 685 00:57:13,420 --> 00:57:14,260 I appreciate that. 686 00:57:14,260 --> 00:57:26,560 All right. Is there any other items on here that we need to discuss prior? I mean, from our work meeting? Any items on item 16? Nope. Okay. 687 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:41,520 When we move on to item 17 then, we're proposing a closed session for item 17. The council will consider a motion to enter into a closed meeting for the purpose of strategy session to discuss the purchase exchange or lease of real property. 688 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:52,840 and to discuss the deployment of security personnel devices or systems to be held in accordance with the provisions of Utah code 52-4-2-2-5. 689 00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:56,740 And so I would need a motion for us to move to that closed session. 690 00:57:57,280 --> 00:57:58,180 So moved. 691 00:57:59,600 --> 00:57:59,960 Second. 692 00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:02,700 Okay, we have a motion a second.
