City Council Regular Meeting— 06/13/OS DRAFT Minutes - Page 19 review, opining that the City of Roseville should be preparing a similar document. Councilmember Kough spoke in support of Councilmember Ihlan's motion and subsequent comments, referencing a recent trip he's made to the City of Pittsburgh and their infrastructure issues. Mayor Klausing spoke in opposition to the motion; questioning what further information could be determined through delaying consideration of the project; the ability for the City to reassess impacts when litigation is resolved; and the further refinement through the federal courts related to the Supreme Court's determination on the use of Eminent Domain as applicable. Mayor Klausing opined that the environmental clean up and infrastructure costs would be addressed through the project agreements. City Attorney Anderson noted that the development attorneys working with the City staff would incorporate language within the agreement provisions to address court decisions and subsequent impacts; and opined that he saw no risks in moving forward; and noted that in past litigation cases stemming out of environmental review and appeals, he had yet to encounter a project where the approval process was stopped due to litigation, unless it was a court-ordered injunction.
