Regular City Council Meeting <br /> Monday, September 24, 2012 <br /> Page 14 <br /> allocated for the parks portion of the bond issue had been designated for path- <br /> ways to improve connections in the community, including the long-needed area <br /> along County Road B-2. <br /> Regarding difference in response times for one (1) versus three (3) fire stations, <br /> Mayor Roe advised that information on those response times had been provided <br /> at the beginning of the fire station project through the Facility Study Group. <br /> As a member of that Study Group, Councilmember Johnson concurred that the <br /> City originally had three (3) fire stations, but that it was during a time when the <br /> City was served by a volunteer fire staff; with volunteer time to respond to inci- <br /> dents double the current response time of only one (1) station, which had been <br /> successfully proven with operation of Station #3 as the sole station serving the <br /> entire community over the last few times and response time cut well in half. <br /> Mayor Roe noted that the faster response service was facilitated by on-site shift <br /> staffing versus volunteer response time from their individual homes; as well as <br /> the Fire Department researching the best routes to incidents throughout the <br /> community to avoid congested areas or higher traffic volumes. While no one <br /> appeared to be available from the Fire Department tonight, Mayor Roe advised <br /> that they could provide information to the public after the meeting. <br /> Recess <br /> Mayor Roe resumed responding to those questions brought forward by the pub- <br /> lic during tonight's public comment on the bond issue. <br /> In response to the perception of an additional 15% increase to taxpayers, Mayor <br /> Roe clarified that the City's 2013 Preliminary Levy adopted earlier this month, <br /> provided for a 15.8% levy increase over 2012, with the final round of bond debt <br /> service not coming through until 2014; but certainly not representing an addi- <br /> tional 15%on top of the previous 15%. <br /> Mayor Roe clarified the City's Port Authority, noting that Roseville did not <br /> have a Port Authority, but had been granted the ability to use Port Authority <br /> powers, delineated by State Statute, for the specific purpose of redevelopment <br /> or economic development and only under those certain established powers <br /> adopted in the 1980's. Mayor Roe noted that this was significantly different <br /> than the Port Authority granted New York City, which was under an entirely <br /> different set of rules. <br /> Mayor Roe asked individual Councilmembers to respond to allegations that they <br /> would be benefiting from any park improvements; and to specify their location <br /> to parks in their immediate vicinity. <br />
