Comments or Questions for the Mayor and Council:
Philip Tarran: 1) has the council considered a runaway truck lane? 2) There needs to be a Pleasant View sign on 2700 N at 600 W and 1000 W pointing the direction of Pleasant View. 3) There is a dump yard of limbs, leaves, sod, etc. along the Barn Golf Course. I was told that it was biodegradable. I have talked with Paul, Scott, and Nevin that they would look into it, and nothing has been done yet. Paul Ellsworth: I have ordered a sign, and it will be put up as soon as it comes. CM Call: we will address the runaway truck lane.
David Alan appeared before the council to discuss the railroad crossings in the EDA. CM Humphreys: I told Alan about the closing of the railroad for access. I told them to come to the meeting so that it could be explained to them. We want to provide another access to the property owners. David Alan: Paula Craven, Eric Maughan, and I were not notified. Nevin Limburg: it is not the cities desire to close the crossings. There is a railroad mandate from the federal government. If we want to have a public access at Stone’s road, then we have to close two private for one public access. We are trying to use fire protection to keep the accesses open. Dave Alan: I have talked to Craig Call the Osbudsman on a taking of my access. Someone needs to provide me with another access with no charge to me. We will pursue this at any means. Nevin Limburg: We need to pursue options. We need to set up a meeting and work together. A meeting was set up for either May 15th or May 22nd. CM Clifford: we need a policy that if people are impacted, they should be notified by certified mail.
Business:
1. Appoint Mayor Pro Tem.
Motion was made by CM Clifford to accept Mayor Wheelwright’s recommendation of the appointment of CM Call as Mayor Pro Tem. 2nd by CM Ferguson. Voting was unanimous in favor.
2. Consider adopting a Resolution Establishing a Policy for Holding Electronic Public Meetings of the City Council. (Presenter: Nevin Limburg)
Motion was made by CM Humphreys to adopt the Resolution Establishing a Policy for Holding Electronic Public Meetings of the City Council as amended. 2nd by CM Clifford. Roll Call Vote: Voting Aye: CM Ferguson, CM Clifford, CM Call, and CM Humphreys. Motion passed.
3. Discussion and Vote:
Resolution of the Pleasant View City Council Approving and Adopting the Participation Agreement by and among Pleasant View City, Pleasant View City Redevelopment Agency, and U.S. Foodservice, Inc. and Authorizing the Execution Thereof.
Nevin Limburg: I submitted the grant document by express mail early this morning. The final purchasing agreement from the RDA has been submitted to the council. The city council’s part of the agreement needs approval. Ron Kusina updated the council regarding Utah Power extending the lines to Superbowl, and Elvis will sign a letter stating that they will cover the cost. OIDC has signed a letter on the financing of Phase 1 in the amount of $2.4 million. This was not a unanimous document. We need the money in the spring of 2008. CM Humphrey: the OIDC loan is counting on the grant. I would hate to approve anything until we get the grant. Can we hold up for 30 days? Nevin Limburg: it is 99% sure. Ron Kusina: what is the liability if we don’t make it? Nevin Limburg: we start over. Ron Kusina: what is the down side? CM Humphreys: we are subject to cost per the agreement. I would like to see the state backs-up. Ron Kusina: I don’t see that. The state has already put in $2.5 million. CM Clifford: where are we with the contract with Elvis? Ron Kusina: that is contingent on funding. The grant application has been approved. Without the grant, we are in dire straits. CM Humphreys: we may be 99% guaranteed. CM Call: I feel comfortable going forward, but we need a backup plan if it falls through. CM Clifford: we would probably need short-term funding. CM Call: maybe the company would loan the funds. Nevin Limburg: the invitation letter means the grant is funded. We have been through the document twice; there is no hole in it. Paul Ellsworth: there will be no report on the delineation until May 15 which may effect it.
Motion was made by CM Clifford to adopt the Resolution of the Pleasant View City Council Approving and Adopting the Participation Agreement by and among Pleasant View City, Pleasant View City Redevelopment Agency, and U.S. Foodservice, Inc. and Authorizing the Execution Thereof. 2nd by CM Ferguson.
