Councilmember Willmus opined that, if you pulled out the interview rating as identified by Councilmember Etten in his previous comments, this vendor still prevailed. Councilmember Willmus questioned if the package was rebid, if any- thing would be gained in getting the parties back to the table. Mayor Roe stated that he saw no cause for rebidding the package at this point. Councilmember McGehee opined that, even though she thought the package was well-thought out than that, if all that was being done is pulling Buckthorn, having access to ground without snow cover became very significant. Mayor Roe noted that, if this was a low bid issue, Stantec remained the low bid; with the only other issue that brought up by City Attorney Gaughan. Roll Call Ayes: Willmus; Etten; and Roe.

City Manager Future Agenda Review City Manager Trudgeon reviewed upcoming agenda items. At the request of Councilmember Willmus, Mr. Trudgeon relocated the PUD Ordinance discussion as a more free-flowing discussion rather than an action item. At the request of Councilmember McGehee, Mr. Trudgeon advised that the Budget dis- cussion on May 22 would include information on the proposed full-time Fire Department personnel issue. Mr. Trudgeon further noted that this would provide and identify each department's individual needs and discussion. Mr. Trudgeon advised that this was not definitive of what may or may not be included in the City Manager-recommended budget to be presented in July,but provide each department to outline their strategies and chal- lenges. Councilmember Laliberte noted the scheduled presentation at the May 27, 2014 PWETC meeting of solar issues; and asked if the presentation could be moved to a City Council meeting.
