City Council Regular Meeting - 02/27/06 Minutes - Page 29 comprehensive review of the City's parking be undertaken at this time; pending upcoming goal-setting, and if evidenced that this was a priority consensus, then staff time and resources be dedicated at the Council's direction. Councilmember Pust opined that this item, as well as the earlier item on the Traffic Safety Committee, appeared to be inter- related; and suggested future action be considered after the PWET provided their recommendations on the Traffic Safety Committee, and possibly be discussed as part of a goal-setting Issue. Councilmember Kough opined that this was a long-term planning issue. Public Comment Daniel Shiely, 720 West County Road B Mr. Shiely spoke in opposition to the City sending staff to Texas to look at the compost equipment; spoke in support of a "break even" analysis for waste disposal to determine city involvement in that business; and noted that, as he'd proposed to the PWET, substantial savings could be realized by the City if no parking were allowed on City streets in the winter. Mr. Shiely encouraged added diligence in reducing costs and increasing revenue to perpetuate the community. John Kysylyczyn, 3083 N Victoria Street Mr. Kysylyczyn questioned why the City Council had not referred this to the Planning Commission or the PWET, rather than wasting valuable Council time discussing the issue. Daniel Shiely, 720 West County Road B Mr. Shiely, in reference to his previous comments, advised Councilmembers that he had detailed minutes and reams of information available from his personal study of the issues, and offered them to the City for their use. Mr. Shiely also opined that the City's Code Enforcement Officer, Rick Talbot, was the finest public administrator he'd ever encountered.
