CITY COUNCIL AGENDA, Tuesday, December 16. With COMMENTS...

Comments and questions ny Dave McCall:

Questions on the Dec 16th City Council agenda:

Item 8F1: on the form submitted, my middle initial is W.(please correct)
Why on the airport property (project area 2), inventory sheet, is the "property developed" and "property vacant" portions, left blank?
Same question for project area #3?
Please explain bond in project area #2?
How much is still available? What is this bond money to be used for? How is the bond being repaid?
Same for project area #1 bond?
Project area #1, admin costs for 2008, how did we spend 400K on admin costs? What does this include?

Budget Summary:
Exhibit B; dated Nov 2008. Is this only for Nov?
July thru Nov?
Is it possible to receive monthly cash sheets in our packets?

Other questions:

1) For example, on the Chevron and 76 gas stations, are we going to allow additional sign space for advertising? I want the stations to be able to advertise for free and reduced items at the pump. I want the L.E.D. lighting option to be allowed. I want our stations to look and feel like brand new service stations. Including all of the latest hi-tech gadgets.
What will that take to accomplish?
Do I need to make this a Council item?
If needed, consider this my request for an agenda item.

2) Sidewalks, on the other end of Michael drive (off of Cosky Dr) the sidewalks are buckled. Has anything been done to find funding to repair the sidewalks? What can be done? Are there possible future grants available to make repairs?
