Mayor Jones:
• TIF District Threshold- Met with Sara Hudson and Robin Rude today. The ability to adjust the TIF base value is very limited. New construction is the biggest factor to increase tax dollars.
• Christmas Party- will be December 15th, 6:00pm at the Arcade. White elephant gift and ugly sweater contest.
• December 11th, lunch with Barry Usher and Sara Hudson.
• Snowy Mountain Development-Looking for another board member.
• Community Coffee Growth Policy-January 22nd, 6:00am at the Senior Center, Cody will do PR info.
Attorney Brooks:
• TIF Board Documents- Minor editing and word smithing.
• Booth Property-County Attorney filed complaint, will double check with Adam Larsen on status tomorrow.
• Rebecca Gentle-Will communicate with her as to why she thinks it’s a hardship for her. Bruce-I believe this is the 3rd company to represent. Can’t give variance on something they are leasing. Brewers own property. Don’t give a variance for anything. Mayor- sent her a variance application and she didn’t send it back. Conditional use permit is premature.
Site Permits: Bruce Hoiland- 2 permits. Handed out two sketches. Discussed lots not included in current rule for curb, gutter, and sidewalk. They want water line, who will help pay for it? Mayor will send to a committee to discuss. Looked up vehicle parking 28-367. Includes the street. Mayor-Street is not their property. Attorney agrees.
Unfinished Business;
• TIF District Board Members: Mayor Jones- Sara Hudson will look at all documents when put together. We will table until we have money in it. Fisher- Why do we want to do anything since we don’t even know if it’s going to pass in the senate? Why waste our time? Carlson- What happens to the money that’s in it if it doesn’t pass? Mayor- It will go to schools, county, city.
Report out from Council Committee Meetings:
• Library Board: Toombs- Met this afternoon, everything rolling along. In good financial shape. Next meeting, we will look at the Interlocal agreement.
• Water Authority: Liggett-. We are on or ahead of schedule.
• On street parking/camper and RV discussion: Mayor- Will work on after the holidays. Vivirito-was a copy sent to the sheriff’s office for comment? Mayor-we will wait until we have more info. We need to find out how we recover the cost for towing Carlson-Light vehicles, such as cars and trucks, don’t come out of anyone’s pocket. RV & campers are not the same case.
Clerk/Treasurer Lanter- mailed Treasurer report to council.
Vivirito-Has County come through with money for pool as promised? Lanter- No.
Director Sibley- Garbage truck broke down, it’s in the shop, waiting on parts. Carlson- I want to give props to the guys for using a dump truck and tractor to collect trash. Great job.
