Staff will finalize the project with the plan to construct the improvement later this summer/fall. • Council received a presentation on May 14"' summarizing current options for using and supporting solar power. The Council directed staff to bring forward a final Subscriber Agreement for participation in one or more Community Solar Garden projects. Staff also informed the Council that we are participating the Solar Possible Collaborative Solar purchasing program. We expect to see proposal from this program by the end of the summer. Staff is continuing to solicit proposals from developers outside of that program as well. Staff's goal is to be under contract for an on campus solar array by the end of 2018. The City Council directed staff to research and gather public input on options for modified parking restrictions for the purposes of snow removal. Currently, parking is prohibited on City streets after 2" of snowfall per City Code. Police policy indicates vehicles MAY be towed, at the officer's discretion, after 12 hours of being tagged. Due to inconsistent compliance with the in place restrictions, Council is considering other options such as seasonal overnight parking restrictions, snow emergency type events, changing the accumulation threshold, or simply the ordinance as is.
