<br />ADMINISTRATOR COMMENTS
<br />
<br />Mr. Fritsinger updated the Council regarding on-going discussions with the firm of Larkin,
<br />Hoffman, Daly & Lindgren, Ltd. to deal with problem strips of land in the Gateway business
<br />district which abut properties and limit access, It was noted it has been the Council's indication
<br />they would support acquisition of these strips of property. Mr. Fritsinger commented on the
<br />potential of condemnation and Larkin's indication the cost to handle this could be a little as
<br />$1,000 and upwards depending on how the City proceeds.
<br />
<br />MOTION:
<br />
<br />Hicks moved and Aplikowski seconded a motion to authorize staff to continue
<br />working with Larkin, Hoffman, Daly & Lindgren, Lmt. on land acquisition in the
<br />Gateway business district per the cost outline contained in their July 30, 1996,
<br />letter. The motion carried unanimously (4-0).
<br />
<br />Mr. Fritsinger noted the proposed community survey questions and requested Council input.
<br />
<br />Mayor Probst stated he is unsure that reducing the survey to 60 questions is adequate and
<br />suggested questions be added, up to a total of 130, He suggested some of the questions on the
<br />past survey be incorporated which will provide a benchmark on some of those issues, such as
<br />TCAPP.
<br />
<br />In response to Mr. Fritsinger, Mr. Post advised that $10,900 has been budgeted. Mr. Fritsinger
<br />noted there is adequate funding to increase the number of questions contained in the survey.
<br />
<br />Councilmember Aplikowski suggested not asking if residents want a City Hall, since planning
<br />for this item is already underway, She asked if the question regarding home ownership could be
<br />limited to assure it is not objectionable, Mr. Fritsinger suggested the question may be phrased as
<br />it is to provide some tracking ability, and he will ask Decision Resources regarding this question.
