Regular City Council Meeting Monday,April 15, 2019 Page 11 same with rental registration, and are looking at proposing a reduction in the cur- rent rental registration fee and similar to this, would like it to be very small and to simply cover the cost of the software system that is being used. Mayor Roe offered an opportunity for public comment, with no one coming for- ward. Mr. Englund asked, in regard to the existing Rental Registration Ordinance, whether Council has any input as to adding an inspection component to the exist- ing ordinance or if Council would prefer to leave the ordinance as is. The Council preferred to leave the ordinance as is. d. Discussion Regarding the Environmental Review Worksheet Process Estab- lished via Resolution 11198 in 2014 Community Development Director Janice Gundlach briefly highlighted this item as detailed in the RCA and related attachments dated April 15, 2019. Councilmember Laliberte complimented Ms. Gundlach's presentation and packet of information. Mayor Roe stated he was surprised these were being submitted to State Agencies for review because it was his understanding at the time, in his mind, that the City was trying to achieve an accounting of environmental issues on these sites that the City was able to have in one place, an inventory of whatever the issues might be on a particular site. He did not think it was going out to other agencies for their review and comment. He wanted to speak to the original process, being a part of it, the idea of having something like this still available and updated is something he might want to see continue as the City goes through the remaining redevelop- ment in the Twin Lakes area. But, in his mind, an adequate way to try to address it is a summary narrative of what the environmental issues known on the site are and making sure it covers all of the issues that are covered in an ERW and not something that is sent out to other entities for approval. He stated he would not want to lose something like that but would be open to entertaining the idea of pulling back from the intensity of what this worksheet is. Mr. Trudgeon stated many of the uses in Twin Lakes are permitted now. If there is any assistance from the City requested, then that would be an opportunity for a check-in with the Council and perhaps an opportunity to share some of that narra- tive. Otherwise, it might be that the City is the passthrough for any environmental cleanup grant. The City Council would not be looking at the development site plan itself; the City would be looking at cleaning up the property. He asked if the Council still wanted to see any development that happens or to know the full envi- ronmental issues that are happening behind the scenes.
