Mr. March noted this action did not guarantee anything other than that the MUSA swap is <br />contingent upon the final development plan. <br /> <br />Mr. Wilharber commented that if the roads in the Eagle Pass development were made <br />public versus private the City would be setting precedence and could expect that other <br />developments with private roads would come in asking for the same consideration. He <br />then suggested that residents have been paying into Swift Construction for road <br />maintenance and the City may need to ask for a portion of those funds for street <br />maintenance. He further stated he thinks the plan is a good plan but that the road issue is <br />of major concern and should be carefully discussed and considered. <br /> <br />VI. DISCUSSION ITEMS <br /> <br />Mr. March handed out surveys from the Communications Ad Hoc Committee and asked <br />that they be filled out and turned in. <br /> <br />Mr. Wilharber questioned what the closing date for the Planning and Zoning Commission <br />opening was. He then noted he would go home and consider applying for the opening. <br /> <br />Mr. Wilharber commented that the gentlemen who had asked that the City regulate <br />construction materials and exact plantings for the developments, does not realize that the <br />City does not have a committee to be in charge of those types of issues. This would <br />require additional staff, which in turn would mean higher taxes. <br /> <br />Commissioner McLean noted he had heard through the grapevine that Associations liked <br />having private roads. At this meeting he had heard an entirely different story. <br /> <br />Commissioner Kilian commented that the parking spaces in the development may need to <br />be made public if the street were made public. <br /> <br />Chairperson Hanson requested Mr. March have public works check into the culvert area <br />on Center Street near Ivy Court as it is pushed up approximately two (2) feet. He feels it <br />is a hazard for children playing in the area. <br /> <br />Mr. March noted there are some other areas where the City has put asphalt on both sides <br />to make it more of a ramp rather than a speed bump. He would ask Mr. Palzer to look at <br />it. <br /> <br />Commissioner McLean asked if public works could look at silt fencing in Eagle Pass to <br />circumvent sewer issues down the road. Mr. March indicated he would ask public works <br />to look into it. <br /> <br />Mr. March noted that Rice Creek Watershed District has not had an inspector for <br />approximately six (6) months, and anyone calling Rice Creek is having trouble getting <br />their calls returned. <br /> <br />Page 10 of 12 <br /> <br />
