City Council Notes-May 15, 2012


A part of the OACCT's Public Policy efforts for 2012 is for volunteers from the Public Policy committee attend both City and County meetings and report back on items that are of interest/concern to business.

1.4.1-3 Council accepted Daniel McIntosh’s resignation from the Airport Commission, approved Tom Harrison as new Airport Commissioner, and the mayor administered the oath of office to Tom Harrison

1.6 Council approved payment of city expenditures in the amount of $605,835.88

2 Consent Agenda; Council approved all items.

3.2.1 Bill Effertz, County Assessor, reviewed a list of properties, explained the difficulty of making some assessments, and advised that anyone with questions or seeking to appeal may do so at the June 14 County Board of Equalization meeting. Council approved the report.

3.2.3 Wells Fargo Bank requested a handicap parking stall be located in front of its business on East Broadway. The city will relocate a handicap parking stall along East Park Square, which is not in front of any businesses and will be used more if moved, to the Wells Fargo location. The new handicap stall will eliminate a 30-minute stall in front of the bank, and the previous handicap stall will become a 2-hour stall. The cost of changing the signage is minimal. Council approved this move.

3.4.1 Council approved moving the 4th Ward polling site from the fairgrounds to St. John’s Lutheran Church while the county fair is in session, so the 2012 Primary Election will not be disrupted. Council approved this move.
