City of Centerville <br />Council Work Session, City Council & Closed Exec. Meeting Minutes <br />August 25, 2021 <br />Mayor Love stated that he felt that there would be tangible gains from the new position, that the <br />Annual Retreat would be helpful for additional discussion regarding directions moving forward <br />for City Administrator/Engineer and engineering. <br />Additional discussion ensued regarding excess funds, COVID funding, City Hall expenditures <br />within 2020 and 2021, GASB requirements and auditorÓs findings regarding uses of funds. <br /> <br />Council Member Lakso had concerns regarding the Capital Improvement Fund/replacement of <br />equipment and the potential for deficit in the future, Administrator Statz stated that the EDA would <br />be presenting their budget shortly, and the need for human services for Centerville residents. <br /> <br />Mayor Love asked about building permit revenue. Administrator Statz stated that despite the <br />development of Block 7 and additional parcels, it was an educated guess being conservative. <br />3. Downtown Planning <br />Administrator Statz explained that the item placed for Work Session discussion was very broad <br />and Council had a downtown property owner in the audience that was facing failing well issues. <br />He stated that the property was originally purchased with the understanding that it eventually <br />would be purchased for redevelopment as it was within the Downtown area. He also stated that <br />the Beard Group redevelopment fell through with the recession and explained that the City desired <br />to assist property owners/developers with extensions for water connections if plans were submitted <br />accordingly. <br /> <br />Discussion ensued regarding the current connection requirements, current escrow policies for <br />connection and if redevelopment where to occur, why invest in existing property. <br /> <br />Mr. Kevin Marois, representing property owner Mr. Jon Marois, 1740 Main Street, stated that his <br />brother has owned the property since 2004, is renting the property and felt that investing in water <br />connection would never been needed as redevelopment was pending. He stated that now the well <br />is failing and costs to connect are financially difficult. He stated he was before Council to learn <br />about redevelopment, planning and whether something could be done on his brotherÓs behalf. <br /> <br />Discussion ensued regarding current regulations, development plan with an escrow agreement, <br />possibility of code amendment, and being fair to all residents in the same situation. <br /> <br /> 4. Junior Council Member <br /> <br />Mayor Love stated that involving youth and the school system in City policies, government, etc. <br />is exciting and interesting as the impact and knowledge at our level they probably could not obtain <br />at their age at the County, State or Federal level. He stated that he is excited about the position <br />and that the position would not be a voting member. <br /> <br />Discussion ensued regarding pay of $50/meeting, not exceeding the length of meetings due to the <br />Junior Council MemberÓs presence, streamlining the meeting, limiting age, residency requirements <br />and class credit. <br /> <br />Page 4 of 9 <br /> <br />
