Approve/Deny 2015 Liquor License Renewals <br /> Etten moved, McGehee seconded, approval of the renewal of requested liquor li- <br /> censes for 2015, as listed and detailed in the RCA dated November 11, 2014. <br /> Roll Call <br /> Ayes: Willmus, Etten, McGehee, Laliberte, and Roe. <br /> Nays: None. <br /> 12. Budget Items <br /> a. Review and Accept the 2015 — 2034 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and <br /> Funding Strategies <br /> Finance Director Miller provided the proposed 2015-2034 CIP and Funding Strat- <br /> egies based on current assumptions, as detailed in the RCA and attachments dated <br /> November 10, 2014, and presentation materials. <br /> Councilmember Willmus sought additional debt service payment information <br /> over the next twenty years that may be available for repurposing. <br /> Mr. Miller identified additional debt levies that may be available during that time, <br /> including funds from the Park Improvement Program and street levies coming <br /> available in 2016 and 2019; reducing the $55 gap to approximately $40 million <br /> during that twenty year period that could be repurposed. However, Mr. Miller <br /> noted staff's attempt to provide the City Council with financial challenges moving <br /> forward based on current assumptions. <br /> Considering those current assumptions, Councilmember Willmus questioned if <br /> the primary assumption "a" (continue programs at current service levels) accu- <br /> rately reflected the most recent community survey; and suggested at some point <br /> the City Council needed to look at that and review survey trending, with a poten- <br /> tial reconsideration of priorities. Also, Councilmember Willmus opined that, if <br /> debt service was not repurposed (e.g. $160,000 for 2015), and the City chose not <br /> to reinvest in those items identified for allocation, a levy reduction should be con- <br /> sidered; and sought a percentage or dollar amount accordingly from staff <br />
