ANNOTATIONS OLD BUSINESS 1. Sensus Automatic Meter Reading - In your packet is the proposal for the phonread automated meter reading system. I recommend authorizing the purchase of the phonread system. We can analyze retrofitting current homes with the phonread system at a later date. This service could also be provided by US Filter. An option I am leaning towards would be to retrofit homes by our own staff as time permits and conduct a sump pump inspection at the same time. 2. 20th Avenue Watermain Interconnection and Trunk Sanitary Sewer, Assessments and Cost Estimates - In your packet is the revised study that Council previously authorized. Mr. Nyberg will be prepared to give a detailed analysis of his report. We will have to set a date for a public hearing and authorize plans and specifications for this project as soon as possible if it is going to occur this year. 3. Staff Survey - Mayor Wilharber will have the staff survey completed and in your mailbox at City Hall by Monday before the meeting. We can discuss the survey at the meeting. 4. Refuse Contract - The proposals from the refuse haulers are due by 4:00 on July 22. We will review the proposals on the day of the meeting and call references. We will have a summary of the proposals available to discuss at the Council meeting. NEW BUSINESS 1. In your packet is a detailed report from Officer Gleason in regards to the traffic control study that was conducted on the corner of 73rd and Old Mill Road. We can discuss this report at the meeting. I made sure that the person that drafted the petition on this matter was notified of the meeting. 2. In your packet is Resolution #97 -13 which authorizes the establishment of Tax Increment Financing District # 1 -5. This district would be established to assist Odyssey Lures in the construction of their new building. I recommend adopting this resolution so we can begin to establish this district and help one of our existing businesses grow. 3. Ehlers will be providing language for Resolution #97 -14 which authorizes the purchase of the Barett property using funds generated from tax increment financing district 1 -3. I • recommend adopting this resolution.
