City Council 11-15-16

Agenda, Minutes, Recording

• We had 13 people stand up to speak during open communications; all concerning the Coleman property rezone request.  11 spoke against the proposal as it is, 2 spoke in favor of it.
• The annual fiscal year audit was presented by a third party auditor.  The audit went well and the city appears to be in fair shape financially and in line with state laws.
• The council approved an agreement with the K-9 handling police officer concerning his duties and compensation for working with and caring for our police K-9 officer.
• The council tabled an amendment to park pavillion rentals to give staff a chance to present more options.
• The council tabled a rezone request of the Coleman Property while the owner/developers consider a slightly different zone (I made a motion for a larger zone which was initially agreed to, but ultimately they decided to think about it before moving forward).
