Member Lenz moved, Member Thurnau seconded, cancellation of the December 27, 2016 PWETC meeting; with staff directed to provide required administrative notice as per statutory requirements. Ayes: 7 Nays: 0 Motion carried. Metro Transit Update Member Seigler requested that a future agenda item include an update from Metro Transit with an update on bus ridership in general and specifically A-Line ridership (number of passengers, buses and how many riders per bus) if possible overall and between certain segments and directionally. Mr. Culver advised that staff would ask Metro transit representatives to provide as many metrics as possible to the PWETC. Chair Cihacek also asked that Metro Transit be prepared to address bus stop locations and disparities (e.g. nothing north of County Road C-2 and other northern suburbs that were also comparatively underserved), and other businesses campuses not served well on the north side, creating more traffic congestion for Roseville. Member Lenz noted the lack of east/west connections. Chair Cihacek asked that Metro Transit provide staff with a list of topics ahead of time to allow the PWETC to be prepared with questions before their presentation. Stormwater Management The PWETC asked for information on current and future parking lots with background information and BMP's for current and proposed materials, features and amenities. At the request of Chair Cihacek, staff duly noted the need to review whether or not the Surface Water Plan was scheduled for the January or February of 2017 meeting and report to the PWETC accordingly. Sanitary Sewer Service Relining At the request of Chair Cihacek, Mr. Culver advised that staff would be returning to the City Council early in 2017 with further research from different communities related to relining costs, potential programs, seeking direction from them as to whether or not to pursue the project. Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District Status Chair Cihacek asked that staff provide an update (annually) on the status of the city's TIF districts and those being decertified. Chair Cihacek suggested a summary report, perhaps from a representative of the Finance Department to respond to questions of the PWETC versus simply a written report as part of the monthly communication information. Discussion ensued regarding when to schedule certain topics based on timing and needs, especially with several outstanding issues coming before the PWETC in Page 6 of 7
