ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION JULY 15, 20135 <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung <br /> stated that if he were to support the franchise fee, he wanted to see the <br />maximum amount pursued so that the benefit could be passed along to the residents. He <br />suggested the rate be higher than 3%. <br /> <br />Councilmember Werner <br /> supported the $600,000-650,000 range. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes <br /> agreed with this range. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant <br /> was in favor of the $650,000 range and did not agree with going any higher. He <br />recommended that residential properties franchise fees be lower than commercial properties for <br />electric. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes <br /> stated that she did not want to see the Council drive its commercial <br />property owners out of the City. She encouraged the Council to be sensitive to this issue. She <br />recommended the franchise fees be flat between both residential and commercial properties. She <br />questioned if the franchise fee could be put in place by year end. <br /> <br />Ms. Jurek <br /> stated that this timeline would be possible. <br /> <br />The Council was in favor of proceeding with a franchise fee. The Council suggested staff <br />continue working on the numbers and report back to the Council at a future meeting. <br /> <br />D. South Water Tower Logo and Color <br /> <br />Public Works Director Maurer <br /> stated that the south water tower was being repainted at this <br />time. He presented the colors from the north water tower that Council had at an earlier meeting <br />decided the south water tower should be painted. <br /> <br />He also presented a graphic layout of the logo and a plan view which showed the two logos <br />generally facing east and west I-694. <br /> <br />E. State of the City Topics <br /> <br />City Administrator Klaers <br />reviewed an Economic Development Commission list of State of the <br />City topics with the Council. He noted that the TCAAP redevelopment, B-2 District <br />improvements, recent development projects, and transportation improvements are recommended <br />as the main topics of discussion. <br /> <br />Councilmember Werner <br /> indicated that the EDC was in favor of providing a full report on <br />TCAAP. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant <br /> stated that in the past, each Councilmember presented a topic at the State of the <br />City meeting. <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung <br /> commented that he would not be able to attend the State of the City <br />meeting. <br /> <br />
