Council Member Sweeney noted the resident was a sked to look into funding from <br /> the MS Society for grants and equipment. He stated the City is assuming the <br /> responsibility for accessibility when it should be the responsibility of the resident. <br /> Council Member Vickers asked that the time and materials be tracked so an <br /> invoice could be forwarded to the resident for payment. Council Member <br /> Sweeney concurred. <br /> Council Member Nelson stated she was in favor of the project and felt it was the <br /> City's obligation to make the City handicap accessible. Mr. Hoeft noted the City <br /> has no legal obligation to complete this accessibility due to the fact the city street <br /> is to code and that the driveway grade is difficult at this site. <br /> Motion by Council Member Vickers, seconded by Council Member Travis to <br /> approve the use of the grinding equipment, for public works to grind down <br /> the street, an asphalt section be patched and that the time and materials be <br /> invoiced to the resident. All in favor. Motion carried. (Sweeney and Nelson <br /> opposed). <br /> IX. NEW BUSINESS <br /> City Finance Advisor Review <br /> Mr. March explained the financial advising company that contracts with the City <br /> is not as responsive to the City of Centerville as they used to be. He indicated <br /> there has been several recent issues with a lack of returned phone calls for bond <br /> work. Mr. March asked if the Council would like to take applications for <br /> additional bond companies before the Hunter's Crossing Development was <br /> issued. <br /> Mayor Wilharber asked if Ehlers has been addressed with the concerns and future <br /> position of the City. Mr. March stated he thought he would address the Council <br /> before this issue moved forward. He noted he would have no problem addressing <br /> them with his concerns as they would be justified. Mr. March added that an <br /> additional financial advisor would help to keep the financing honest for the City. <br /> Council Member Nelson stated she would like to see the City have another firm if <br /> full service is not being received from Ehlers by Staff. Council Member Sweeney <br /> concurred. <br /> Mayor Wilharber asked if the City of Circle Pines had been addressed as they use <br /> Juran and Moody. Mr. March stated he has not addressed them to date because he <br /> was uncertain of the Council's wishes. <br /> Motion by Council Member Sweeney, seconded by Council Member Nelson <br /> to advise Staff to gain pricing from Juran and Moody as a financial advisor <br /> for the City of Centerville. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously. <br /> Mound Trail Discussion , <br /> 4 <br />
