Regular City Council Meeting Monday, Apri121, 2008 Page 18 b. Policy,, Procedure and Ordinance Revisions necessary to implement en- hancements to Roseville's Code Enforcement Program Community Development Director Patrick Trudgeon provided and highlighted changes in the staff report dated April 21, 2008, since the previous presentation. Staff s recommendations were to fund the temporary position at an amount of $15,000 through Imagine Roseville 2025 funds, or through HRA levied funds, rather than through administrative fine fees; for the City Manager or an outside officer to serve as the hearing officer, noting the limited time to research this por- tion of the proposed ordinance (page 3, line 31); clarification that no impacts would be realized in Police and/or Fire Deparhnent administrative fees; and clari- Eying the change in the Prosecuting Attorney Contract for a pilot term. Councilmember Pust thanked staff for listening to the City Council and HRA dis- cussions and preparing these options. Pust moved, Roe seconded, acknowledging and authorizing the following Com- munity Development procedural changes: a. Shortened timeframes for correcting public nuisance violations; and b. Additional educational efforts through the use of brochures to better inform the public about typical public nuisance violations. Roll Call Ayes: Ihlan; Roe; Pust; and Klausing. Nays: None. Given the fact that the HRA had yet to consider or approve specific use of their funds, Councilmember Pust and Mayor Klausing clarified that funds should be considered from the HRA levied funds, but if that didn't come to fruition, funds be set aside from Imagine Roseville 2025 contingency funds instead. Pust moved, Klausing seconded, authorizing staff to hire a seasonal intern to as- sist with code enforcement activities and the neighborhood enhancement pro- gram; with the position to be funded: a) Fund the total amount ($15,060.00) through the budgeted dollars put into the 2008 City Budget to implement results of the Imagine Roseville 2025 process; OR b) Discuss the possibility of using funds from the HRA budget to pay for the sea- sonal intern and neighborhood enhancement program. Councilmember Ihlan opined that there would be an advantage to use the Imagine Roseville 2025 funds, rather than HRA funds, to ultimately avoid crossing lines for staffing. Roll Call Ayes: Ihlan; Roe; Pust; and Klausing. Nays: None.
