<br />effort, which was approved in the 2006 budget. Now, decisions need to be <br />made on the best ways to spend the money. <br /> <br />Chair Wilke suggested that a subcommittee be set up, including members <br />from the Parks Commission, to make some recommendations. They will <br />meet as many times as necessary to come to some decisions and then <br />report back to the Public Works Commission. Schwartz said staff would <br />begin collecting data. <br /> <br />Chair Wilke volunteered himself. Schwartz said he would contact <br />Members Fischer and Neprash to see if they were interested, but Member <br />Willenbring said he would serve if neither of them did. <br /> <br />Member Neprash arrived at the meeting and volunteered to sit on the <br />Pedestrian Safety Committee. <br /> <br />9. Council/Commission Joint Meeting <br /> <br />Schwartz said the City Council had set goals for 2006. One of them is to <br />improve communication and establish better relationships with all city <br />commissions. The Public Works Commission is scheduled for the regular <br />July 17 council meeting. All Public Works Commission members are <br />asked to attend. Commission members should submit in advance to the <br />City Manager any topics they want to discuss at the meeting. <br /> <br />Member Neprash said that the Commission has a new charge as far as <br />environmental issues, and it's never been addressed to his satisfaction <br />what the Council expects of the Commission in that respect. He suggested <br />that as a possible topic. <br /> <br />Member Willenbring suggested that when there is a major issue that may <br />need to be discussed by more than one Commission that everyone get <br />together for one meeting. Schwartz said there can be time constraints with <br />different processes, which makes it more difficult to schedule a joint <br />meeting. <br /> <br />Chair Wilke said he's seen issues being tackled by other commissions that <br />should have come to Public Works and that someone needs to be watching <br />to see that these issues get channeled to the right commission. <br /> <br />10.
