Regular City Council Meeting Monday,November 25, 2013 Page 37 pen and to provide buildings where people were interested in accessing. While expressing his appreciation of the general direction, Councilmember Etten spoke in support of an entry system through remote or timer for bathroom access at a minimum, with others optional for being prepped for a future control method; to allow a starting point to allow maximum control of the buildings with minimal staff time. If that was a given, Councilmember Etten opined that more groups would be interested in using the buildings versus the existing bunkers; and they would provide a more welcoming community space that could be open to the pub- lic. Councilmember Laliberte opined that there was money to be found for other things by not installing exotic heating systems, since she was not sure residents were expecting that level of comfort; and suggested that it could be a trade-off. With technology at its current level and only increasing in the future, Coun- cilmember Laliberte opined that the City needed to be prepared now to provide those amenities for community groups, rather than in the future; and expressed her strong support for immediately installation of those technologies (e.g. wi-fi).

Councilmember Willmus expressed his interest in completing tonight's agenda rather than defer- ring items to the next meeting.

Nays: None. Mayor Roe stated that he was comfortable with the proposed exterior materials; however, he noted that he was interested in more detail about their life-cycle costs. Mayor Roe noted that the proposed materials were not out of character with residential homes in Roseville. Mayor Roe advised that he would like to ini- tially get wi-fi in the larger shelters at a minimum; but was amenable to the doors being prepped for future remote or control potential, opining that the City could
