You
mayor
all
the
council
should
receive
the
binder
that
has
a
lot
of
room
in
that
and
and
that's
on
purpose,
because
this
preliminary
draft
is
a
document
that
I
want
to
just
talk
about
for
a
few
minutes
about
what
is
it?
What
do
we
hope
to
do
with
that
with
your
time
and
effort
in
the
months
ahead,
and
why
it's
critical
that,
ultimately,
our
goal
is
to
have
the
council
adopt
a
five-year
capital
improvement
plan
at
some
point
in
the
future?
E
First,
first
off,
though,
I
think
it's
important
to
keep
in
mind
that,
whether
we
call
it
a
capital
improvement
plan
or
a
community
investment
plan.
This
is
a
this
is
structured
around
a
five-year
period
based
on
a
number
of
various
master
plans.
Infrastructure
master
plans,
as
well
as
information
contained
in
our
comprehensive
plan
goals
and
other
community
expectations.
E
Capital
projects,
when
we
use
that
term,
ultimately
we'll
have
a
definition
in
here
to
make
sure
that
we're
all
using
the
same
definitions,
usually
a
capital
project,
is
pretty
large
scale
in
nature,
could
involve
facilities,
construction,
major
equipment
purchases
and
significant
maintenance
repair.
This
particular
document,
as
it
stands
right
now
and
and
I
again,
want
to
stress
these
numbers
will
be
subject
to
change,
but
right
now,
this
preliminary
draft
has
approximately
three
hundred
and
thirty-seven
million
dollars
in
projects.
Only
60
million
dollars
in
projects
have
what
we
project
is
probably
secured
funding.
E
That
is,
we
think
that
either
through
fees,
service
charges
there's
enough
money
to
cover
those
there's
around
277
million
in
projects
where
funding
is
not
secured
or
it
just
doesn't
exist
at
the
present
time
for
one
way
or
another.
Many
of
these
projects
are
mandated,
such
as
our
combines,
who
are
over
flow
separation.
E
Continuation
with
Lopes
Colton,
addressing
the
Eastside
infiltration
or
ini
problems
is,
is
an
ongoing,
critical
concern.
We
have
many
unfunded
capital
projects
that
are
very
critical
versus
others
that
maybe
you're
going
to
be
identified
as
very
important
for
the
city
now
or
in
the
future.
As
you
go
through
and
just
look
at
the
summary
of
these
projects,
you
might
get
the
impression
that
it's
a
daunting
list,
it's
a
formidable
list
and
how
in
the
world
are
we
going
to
achieve
these
I
will
say
this
that
we're
no
different
than
probably
the
federal
government.
E
The
state
government
had
most
municipalities
counties
throughout
the
nation.
I
rarely
have
I
ever
in
my
career,
seen
any
governmental
entity
that
feels
like
they're
totally
up
to
date.
You
know
on
maintaining
all
and
keeping
all
their
capital
improvements
in
a
very
much
up
to
date.
You
know
meeting
current
deadlines,
inevitably,
there's
always
going
to
be
some
backlog.
I
think
it
might
be
helpful,
though,
that
just
mention
a
few
reasons
why
our
particular
list
might
be
a
little
greater
than
maybe
some
other
cities
of
our
size.
I.
E
Think
part
of
that,
and
and
some
of
these
may
resonate
with
you
as
we
do
have
some
in
pasture
city
funding
very
much-
was
focus
to
new
residential
growth,
as
identified
by
the
so-called
Carson
by
support.
Also
in
the
past,
we
have
not
had
infrastructure
master
plans
and
a
capital
improvement
program
that
at
least
would
be
have
the
the
visibility
to
not
only
the
council,
the
staff
and
the
public
at
large
I
think.
E
Unfortunately,
many
of
the
backlog
of
infrastructure
has
gone
beyond
the
expiration,
the
useful
life
and
consequently,
much
of
our
investment
has
the
gun
into
emergency
repairs
where
staff
is
estimated.
Sometimes
those
can
cost
forty
fifty
percent
more
than
what
it
would
cost
if
we
were
on
a
very
proactive,
ongoing
capital
replacement
and
repair
schedule.
E
Also,
only
in
a
few
cases
do
we
have
dedicated
revenue
streams
and
sometimes
we
don't
have
any
dedicated
revenue
streams
for
other
facilities
which
can
complicate
the
budgeting
process
on
a
year-to-year
basis.
In
many
cases
we
do
have
fees
and
service
charges,
but
they
maybe
have
only
been
updated,
sporadically
and
in
some
cases,
not
enough
to
keep
up
with
cost
inflation.
Also
and
I
think
this
is
what
I've
heard
from
many
of
the
staff
so
much
for
their
limit.
E
Resources
have
been
focused
on
deferred
maintenance
and
operations,
and
not
really
having
the
time
to
devote
to
capital
planning,
which
is
unfortunate,
and
one
other
thought
I
would
throw
out.
There
is
I
think
there's
also
because
we
have
a
lack
of
development
impact
fees
that
could
be
used
to
fund
capital
improvements
as
required
and
accommodate
new
growth,
because
we
really
haven't
had
those
kind
of
fees
oftentimes.
E
Some
of
that
new
growth
falls
back
on
the
general
user
into
the
ratepayers,
but
for
whatever
reason,
what
we
are
trying
to
achieve
is
to
have
a
CIP
that,
ultimately
upon
approval,
will
provide
for
a
balanced
strategy
for
not
only
what
capital
improvements
will
be
funded,
how
they
are
going
to
be
funded.
What
is
the
priority,
and
how
have
we
established
some
of
these
competing
demands
for
limited
resources,
both
from
what
will
satisfy
current
residents
and
businesses,
needs
hopes
and
expense
expectations
against
those
of
future
residents
and
businesses
that
will
come
in
the
future.
E
I
do
want
to
point
something
doubt
very
much
at
this
point
in
time,
and
that
is,
as
you
look
at
these
cost
estimates.
Some
of
those
are
very,
very
high
level.
As
an
example,
we
have
a
cost
number
of
50
million
dollars
for
a
city
operation
center.
Basically,
this
is
a
replacement
of
our
public
works
yard,
our
fleet
management
area
on
and
on
and
on,
but
there's
also
50
million
for
a
city
hall.
E
The
the
goal
of
putting
those
in
here
is.
We
have
to
move
expeditiously
and
embark
on
a
space
study
so
that
we
can
begin
getting
some
good,
reliable,
factual
data
on
if
we
do
make
that
investment
for
replacement
or
new
facilities,
what's
going
to
be
the
the
future
needs
and
in
the
case
of
office
space,
how
can
we
maximize
even
some
of
the
space
we
have?
E
Currently,
between
the
government
center,
this
facility,
you
know,
and
any
others
that
might
be
so
please
in
no
way
do
I
even
think
the
City
Hall
is
going
to
take
place
until
way
into
the
future,
but
we
do
have
some
very
serious
office-based
efficiencies
and
we're
not
being
as
efficient
as
we
could,
because
we're
so
spread
out.
So,
but
but
the
first
step
is
these
office
space
needs
similar
to
what
the
library
is
doing.
E
E
Probably
a
second
version
of
this
will
be
a
kind
of
a
20
year
projection,
because
that's
where
some
of
these
big
major
projects,
we
really
need
to
ensure
that
at
least
we're
looking
out
20
years
and
it
may
take
5
10
15
years
before
we
get
to
them.
But
I
think
it's
critically
important
that
we
all
see
what
those
needs
are
and
see
more
than
likely.
How
can
we
begin
to
try
to
address
some
of
that
funding?
E
You
know,
given
existing
revenue
constraints,
things
of
that
nature
going
forward.
I
think
it's
also
important
to
point
out
some
things
that
are
not
in
here.
As
an
example,
we
still
have
master
plans
to
complete
one
example
is
the
parks
master
plan,
even
though
that
was
comprehensively
updated
97
we
did
do
some
minor
updating
in
2009,
but
that's
really
not
sufficient
to
have
a
very
much
up-to-date,
comprehensive
update.
E
Recently
I
had
a
chance
to
look
at
normals,
updated
major,
updated
parts
master
plan
and
that's
the
kind
of
major
comprehensive
update
we
still
need
if
for
no
other
reason
to
ensure
that
when
we
look
to
secure
funding
from
grants
and
other
sources,
we
can
show
that
we
do
have
up-to-date
master
plans.
Also,
the
culinary
water
master
plan
is
still
needed
to
consolidate
and
establish
some
of
the
future
needs
of
the
overall
state
of
the
water
system.
Even
though
there's
individual
reports
that'll
be
a
benefit.
E
Furthermore,
I
think
it's
important
to
point
out
that,
as
we
begin
to
get
into
some
of
the
updated
sections
of
this
report,
we
will
provide
to
you
weeks
in
advance
individual
project,
description
and
data
sheets.
We
have
many
of
those,
but
we
wanted
you
first
who
to
look
at
the
great
disparity
between
what
we
can
fund
and
what
is
unfunded,
and
especially
in
the
different
categories,
even
where
we
have
fees
and
service
charges
like
in
storm
water
and
sanitary
sewer.
E
We
have
some
very
serious
challenges:
storm
water
has
very
little
cash
on
hand,
sanitary
sewers
in
a
little
better
position,
but
in
both
cases
we've
undertaken
some
fee
and
service
charge
studies
that,
hopefully,
will
be
part
of
that
discussion
going
forward.
How
will
those
dedicated
revenue
streams
begin
to
address
some
of
those
needs
here
in
a
minute?
I
do
want
to
pass
out
a
handout
to
talk
about
what's
going
forward,
but
in
the
early
stages,
in
fact,
probably
in
one
of
our
next
sessions,
probably
the
first
meeting
in
August.
E
What
we
want
to
first
talk
a
little
bit
about
it.
High
level
is
what
are
some
of
the
financing
policy
options:
pay-as-you-go
debt
financing,
the
combination
of
both
and
the
reason
that's
important,
and
as
some
of
you
who
were
here
when
a
debt
policy
was
adopted,
usually
just
like
any
kind
of
pre
budget
discussion
that
that's
a
critical
element
because,
as
we
know,
our
current
taxpayers,
whether
their
businesses
or
residents,
are
always
asking
why
we
can't
lower
taxes.
E
Why
can't
we
reduce
the
tax
burden
but,
on
the
other
hand,
we're
in
a
situation
where
we
have
a
total
of
about
a
hundred
and
six
million
dollars
in
existing
outstanding
debt?
The
bulk
of
that
75
million
is
an
outstanding
general
obligation,
bonds,
much
of
that
is
associated
with
downtown
improvements,
the
Coliseum,
the
bcp,
a
pepsi,
iced
center
parking
garages,
etc.
E
We
also
have
other
Illinois
Environmental
Protection
water
loans
and
capital
lease
which,
if
it
wasn't
for
our
capital
lease
program,
we
wouldn't
have
some
of
the
turnover
and
replacement
of
our
equipment.
That
has
been
very
critical
and
we've
had
an
acute
need
in
years
past.
On
the
other
hand,
we're
also
going
to
in
our
next
meeting
talk
a
little
bit
about.
E
E
Another
thing
that
we're
still
a
little
kind
of
deficient
on
is
some
of
the
prioritizing
of
unfunded
capital
needs
between
categories.
Part
of
this
is
going
to
be
a
subject
of
considerable
discussion
with
you
as
the
council,
because
how
do
you
begin
to
balance
street
resurfacing
with
underground
infrastructure
or
sanitary
sewer
and
stormwater
with
fire
stations?
You
know
either
renovation
and
upgrading?
E
How
do
you
balance
those
with
other
facilities,
some
of
which,
as
we've
seen
in
the
last
few
years,
it
that
the
norm
is
more
to
replace
things
when
it
becomes
a
dire
emergency
as
opposed
to
replacing
them?
You
know,
as
we
get
to
the
useful
life,
but
anything
anyway.
Those
will
be
some
of
the
critical
discussions
going
forward.
E
Secondly,
what's
going
to
be
the
public's
involvement,
good
best
practices
in
any
kind
of
very
comprehensive,
meaningful,
long-term
capital
improvement
program
is
to
engage
business
owners
residents
because,
ultimately,
having
those
kind
of
conversations,
I
think
is
going
to
help
you
as
policymakers
to
determine.
Where
is
the
appetite
the
willingness
to
support
to
consider
either
current
level
of
funding
may
be
enhanced
level
of
funding
or
even
a
reduce,
and
what
are
going
to
be.
E
The
consequences
ultimately
will
bring
to
you
in
the
future
a
little
bit
more
detail
on
what
could
be
an
aggressive
and
robust
citizen
engagement,
communication
plan,
but
again
that
will
be
here
in
the
future.
Just
looking
at
this
brief
little
hand
out
these,
I
mentioned
to
many
of
you
not
only
with
the
delivering
of
this
preliminary
draft
on
a
summary
basis.
Tonight
just
wanted
to
formally
initiate
dialogue
on
this
work
session,
but
what
we
do
see
is
is,
hopefully
maybe
an
hour
in
each
session,
beginning
on
augis,
8
and
then
hopefully
at
least
monthly.
E
Beyond
that,
we
can
begin
to
do
some
deep
dive.
Keep
in
mind
that
what
we
will
do
is
get
out
to
you
a
week
or
two
in
advance
any
additional
information
that
would
be
appropriate
for
these
sections
so
like
in
capital
financing
debt
policies,
there's
going
to
be
a
little
bit,
more
information
will
provide
and
then
beyond
that
streets
and
sidewalks
you'll
get
project
data
sheets
and
will
continue
to
have
more
discussion
about
what
looks
like
it's
funded.
E
What
could
be
unfunded
and
we
think
if
we
take
each
one
of
those
in
separate
sessions
as
you
go
down
this
list,
then
by
the
end.
Hopefully
we
begin
to
get
to
a
point
of
which,
with
some
of
the
preliminary
this
policy
decisions
you
are
going
to
make.
How
can
we
structure
a
balanced
five-year
CIP
plan
that
would
be
ready
to
roll
out
say
to
the
public
and
see
what
they
think
based
on
some
of
these
discussions?
So
this
this
particular
process
we
see
is
a
very
involved
process
with
you,
the
City
Council.
E
We
want
to
give
each
director
who
are
involved
in
some
of
these
critical
systems
and
areas
of
the
city's
capital
improvement,
inventory
opportunities
to
give
limit
of
presentations,
but
also
to
share
with
you
what
they
see
as
some
of
the
priorities,
as
well
as
what
are
maybe
some
of
the
consequences
with
not
funding
some
of
these
unfunded
capital
improvements.
So
that's
just
kind
of
an
overview.
I
didn't
really
anticipate.
We'd
have
a
lot
of
time
for
discussion
tonight.
I
was
probably
going
to
talk
more
so
than
others
so
I'd
like
to.
F
Thank
You
mayor,
but
first
of
all
david,
I
have
to
say
thank
you
to
you
and
the
staff
for
this.
I
know
this
is
something
that
that
I
have
been
very
anxiously
awaiting
and
I
know
it's
taking
of
very
much
a
building
block
approach.
To
put
it
all
together,
you
know
with
the
master
plans
and
then
merging
those
together,
so
that
just
starting
a
conversation
here
tonight
is
a
major
step
forward
for
the
city.
F
It
really
is,
and
it
is
taking
years
to
get
to
this
point
and
countless
hours
of
so
many
of
the
folks
back
here,
and
so,
first
and
foremost,
I
want
to
say
thank
you
because
this
this
has
been
one
of
those
really
big
rocks.
That
I
was
hopeful
that
we'd
be
able
to
move.
You
know,
while
I
was
here
and
and
lay
the
groundwork
for
this.
F
So
thanks
just
then
a
quick
question,
and
maybe
it's
just
because
I
haven't
had
time
yet
to
go
all
through
this
I
noticed
like,
for
instance,
in
the
executive
summary
we
have.
We
we
kind
of
have
some
some
Enterprise
funds,
the
Enterprise
Fund
areas
that
are
kind
of
mixed
in
with
general
fund
areas,
and-
and
so
is
that
I
guess
we
would
be
looking
to
those
Enterprise
funds,
22
I,
guess,
plan
for
and
accommodate
their
own,
their
own
financial
needs
by
way
of
bonding
or
pay-as-you-go
or
whatever
we
decide
right.
F
I
mean
this
is
what,
while
things
are
kind
of
all
combined
here
and
consolidated
into
some
general
numbers,
we
do
have
that
mix
of
enterprise
fund
its
and
general
funds
as
well.
So
as
we
work
through
that,
well,
we
we
kind
of
separate
those
out
to
make
sure
that
we're
understanding
that
these
would
be,
you
know
combined
pulls
from
the
general
fund
or
refine
antsy.
You
see
what
I'm
saying
I.
E
Yeah
and
the
answer
is
going
to
be
kind
of
a
combination,
yes
and
no.
Okay,
generally
speaking,
we
anticipate
that
a
future
written
Paul
see
for
each
Enterprise
Fund,
which
you
the
council
will
adopt,
will
probably
put
the
greatest
burden
on
those
fees
to
fund
the
capital
and
operating
needs
of
each
Enterprise
Fund.
However,
it's
not
unusual
to
kind
of
leave
some
general
tax
revenue
to
be
a
source
of
help
financially,
as
probably
some
of
the
the
Geo
bond
debt
that
we
still
have
probably
includes
some
some
general
infrastructure
improvement
shred.
Yes,
okay,
thank.
G
G
E
And
I
just
say
to
that:
what
we
didn't
wanted
to
do
is
get
too
far
ahead
of
you,
the
council,
we're
ready
to
help
and
I.
Think
even
prioritization
methodology
is
one
that
will
have
future
discussion.
We
didn't
want
to
spend
a
lot
of
time
and
effort,
creating
something
that
is
too
complicated,
but
yeah
we'll
have
those
discussions
and
then
based
on
the
direction
you
give
us,
we
can
even
get.
You
know
more
detailed
on
some
of
the
prioritization,
with
your
input
and
guidance
Oldman.
D
I
think,
at
least
in
my
time
on
the
council,
I'd
say
that
this
really
has
been
kind
of
the
infrastructure.
Council
we've
devoted
more
resources
to
street
resurfacing
sewers
sidewalks
in
previous
years
and
previous
councils
I
mean
that's,
that's
undeniable
fact,
and
as
we
look
now
kind
of
towards
the
future,
because
I
think
what
I've
seen
and
what
I've
heard
feedback
from
people
is,
we
don't
know
what
we're
going.
D
D
How
do
we
get
to
that
level
in
it
and
if
not,
we
know
what
do
we
lose
for
it,
but
for
me,
I
think
this
is
also
one
of
my
takeaways
from
this
and
I
kind
of
want
to
put
this
in
my
colleagues
heads
is.
This
is
part
of
that
fee.
Vs
tax
discussion
that
we
keep
getting
to
and
to
what
extent
are
some
of
these
things
public
goods
that
come
through
tax
dollars
into
what
extent
do
we
have
fee
is
so
you
know
stormwater
fees.
D
I
saw
in
here
as
a
conversation,
and
you
know
we've
done
some
revenue
enhancements
here
and
there
then
we
have
some
more
revenue
coming
in.
Do
we
need
to
look
at
that
as
fees?
Is
that
the
fairest
way
for
our
citizens?
You
know
I
continue
to
hear
feedback
from
from
from
my
award
that
property
tax
is
something
that
should
be
looked
at
more
thoroughly
because
there
are
people
in
my
ward,
whose
water
bill
is
higher
than
their
property
tax,
bill
and
I.
D
Think
that's
not
a
fair
way
of
looking
at
things,
so
I'm
hoping
as
we
move
forward
to
this
conversation,
I
didn't
mine,
those
priorities
that
we
can
also
line
up,
funding
streams
that
I
think
are
fair
and
equitable
and
I.
Don't
think
we're
ever
going
to
agree
on
what's
number
one
number
two
priority
here,
but
I
think
a
good
discussion
that
really
engaged
with
the
public
is
is
going
to
be
key
in
to
me.
The
first
step
is
getting
this
all
together,
based
on
facts
and
information
and
I'm
really
excited
to
be
moving
forward
here.
D
C
H
Great,
thank
you
very
much
your
honor.
Can
you
bring
up
that
per
slide?
For
me,
please,
the
subject
of
city-owned
property
has
come
up
a
number
of
times
over
the
last
couple
of
months,
and
I
would
like
to
point
out
that
the
purpose
of
this
briefing,
then,
is
to
do
three
things.
First,
to
tell
you
all
of
the
property
that
the
city
owns.
H
Second,
to
tell
you
what
the
staff
believes
is
property
that
may
be
excess
to
our
needs,
and
then
the
third
thing,
as
the
memo
suggests,
is
to
recommend
to
you
that
we
get
preliminary
approval
to
proceed
with
the
disposition
of
such
surplus
prophecies
way
identify.
We
aren't
going
to
do
that
now,
but
will
come
forward
with
the
process
to
do
that.
So
the
first
thing
I
wanted
to
do
was
talk
about
the
total
of
property
that
we
own.
H
The
city
has
very
little
surplus
property,
but
we
do
owe
it
to
you
and
to
the
public
to
let
you
know
what
that
is,
and
it
took
a
considerable
amount
of
work
to
make
sure
we
found
out
where
all
of
those
little
pieces
of
property
were
because
there
are
some
big
pieces
and
then
there
are
some
little
pieces.
What
I
wanted
to
do
now
was
to
take
a
look
at
a
couple
of
these
pieces
and
what
I
prepared
for
you
is
what
I
call
the
a-list.
H
You
have
a
copy
of
it
in
europe
brochure
there
and
the
the
public
has
access
to
this
as
well.
The
a
list
is
all
the
pieces
of
property
that
city
owns.
It
turns
out
that
there's
302
of
them,
I'm
not
going
to
go
through
them
all,
obviously
right
now,
but
I
did
want
to
show
you
that
we've
listed
all
of
those
and
as
you
can
see
there
are
some
of
these.
You
know
like
when
you
go
through
some
of
those
item
number
118.
Well,
you
know
it's
eagle
view
park.
H
Obviously,
that's
not
excess
to
our
needs
and,
as
you
go
through,
that
you'll
see
a
lot
of
these
things.
We've
got
the
item.
22
one
is
a
miller
park,
so
all
of
these
pieces
of
property,
then
we
have
things
on
them.
We
have
fire
stations
on
them.
We
have
a
water
tanks
on
them
and
so
of
these
three
hundred
and
two
pieces
of
property
there.
There
are
not
many
that
are
excess.
H
Some
of
them,
however,
are
very
small
and
maybe
do
not
have
any
economic
development
potential
and
show
I'll
show
you
some
examples
of
those.
This
is
a
small
piece
of
this
is
one
of
those
eight
which
is
really
right
across
the
street
from
the
water
department,
and
that
piece
of
property
is
about
five
feet
wide
and
50
feet
long
now,
what
you
know,
unless
you
know
somebody
that
raises
spaghetti
or
something
I,
don't
know
what
you
can
do
with
a
piece
of
property
like
that,
and
probably
has
no
no
economic
development
for
for
anybody.
H
So
what
we?
What
we
do
is
some
of
these
will
just
have
to
take
a
look
at
and
see
if
there's,
if
there's
some
disposition
that
we
might
be
able
to
make
of
them.
Here's
another
piece
of
property,
probably
seen
this
at
the
corner
of
washington,
street
and
Towanda.
That's
that's
one
of
probably
four
of
these
that
we
don't
have
much
use
for
it.
It's
worth
driving
by
and
look
at
it's
a
nice
little
little
lot
with
some
trees
on
it.
H
By
the
time
you
move
back
from
the
necessary
offsets,
there's
not
enough
room
to
build
anything
they're,
certainly
not
a
house
and
Eleanor
a
convenience
store
or
something
like
that.
The
third
one
is
a
little
parcel
they're
north
of
Mulberry
Street.
If
you
go
through
the
alley,
you
look
behind
it
and
there
is
a
big
fenced
in
lot
to
his
own
by
somebody
else,
and
that
parcel
there
is
is
just
smaller
than
little
piece
of
backyard
and
I.
Try
to
investigate
as
to
why
we.
How
do
we
have
that?
H
Where
did
we
get
that
little
piece?
There
is
behind
the
fence
and
it's
trees
there
and
nobody
could
could
figure
it
out.
We
don't
know
how
we
got
it
or
why
we
own
it
it's
just
there
and
then
here's
an
entry
student
one.
This
is
the
fifth
one.
This
is
a
piece
of
a
parking
lot.
That's
located
in
the
home,
sweet
home
ministry
parking
lot
about
the
size
of
a
four-up
parked
cars.
Why
we
own?
That
is
a
mystery
to
us.
It's
lost
to
history,
but
it's
one
of
those
pieces
of
property
that
I
suppose.
H
If
the
pavement
went,
bad
we'd
be
responsible
for
fixing
it
or
maybe
we'd,
have
some
liability,
but
some
of
these
pieces
of
property
just
don't
make
a
whole
lot
of
sense
and
it
may
be
easier
to
seed
them
to
the
adjoining
property
owners
or
something.
What
we're
going
to
do,
though,
is
we're
going
to
to
ask
them
for
your
authority
to
go
ahead
and
look
at
a
process
for
disposing
of
these
properties
in
some
way,
shape
or
form.
C
Okay,
Jim.
F
All
right
or
Steve,
some
of
those
parcels
are
very,
very
very
small,
doesn't
seem
like
they
have
much
value
under
into
the
adjoining
property
owner.
Do
we
have
any
office
question
for
you
or
jeff
or
david
ben?
Do
you
have
any
issues
with
giving
property
to
a
private
home
owner?
That's
adjacent
to
the
property?
Well,.
H
Yes,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
there
are
some
issues
in
terms
of
of
state
law
about
what
we
can
do
with
public
property
and
so
I'll
be
working
with
the
city
attorney,
so
that
we
can
find
out
how
we
can
do
that.
So
we'll
come
back
to
you
with
a
proposal,
so
we
can
do
that
all
properly
you're
right
that
some
of
them
are
very
small.
The
one
of
them
is
is
three
one-hundredths
of
an
acre,
that's
about
a
hundred
and
sixty
square
yards,
so
those
are
very
small
pieces
of
property.
I'd
be
curious
to.
F
When
we
get
farther
down
the
road,
if
we're
serious
about
this
I
hope
we're
serious
about
marketing
it
or
advertising
it.
Maybe
it's
hindsight,
but
we
could
look
at
our
coachman
property
and
ask
ourselves
what
have
we
done
to
sell
that
you
know
I
think
it
takes
more
than
a
sign
in
the
yard
to
get
it
sold
and
stay.
H
So
it's
a
it's
a
buildable
lot,
but
sometimes
we've
used
a
CDBG
funds
to
demolish
the
property
and
that
sort
of
thing,
so
we've
ended
up
with
pieces
of
property
and
and
maybe
we
could
sell
it
for
building
or
maybe
we
could
accumulate
those
it's
kind
of
a
property
accumulation
to
do
another
economic
development
plan.
So
some
of
these
things
will
work
through
and
some
of
them,
as
you
say,
may
just
be
better
to
go
to
the
adjacent
property
owner
there's
only
six
of
them.
So
it's
not
very,
very
detailed.
B
G
Have
to
think
about
it
long
term
as
long
as
somebody
else
owns
that
they're
gonna
be
paying
property
tax
on
it,
and
so
there's
a
revenue
stream.
There
I
realize
that
some
of
these
are
just
tiny
little
parcels,
but
I
think
that
there's
some
out
there
that
we
haven't
been
using
effectively
and
we
could
be-
and
so
I'd
like
to
look
at
what
we
can
do
rather
than
what
we
can't
Thanks.
Okay.
H
Sure
that
that
could
be
done
on
some
of
these
Lots,
not
probably
the
parking
lot
of
home
sweet
home
ministry,
but
some
of
these
other
building
Lots,
where
we've
taken
building
down
sure
we
could
look
at
that
as
well.
That's
a
good
suggestion
and
I
also
like
to
ask
answer
mr.
Lauer's
question
on
these:
were
you
thinking
about?
Did
you
want
us
to
go
back
and
look
at
again
at
some
of
the
296
pieces
of
property
that
we
were
talking
about,
or
these.
H
Sure,
yes,
we'd
really
like
to
look
at
some
of
these
others,
because,
though
the
staff
looked
at
the
302
and
that's
a
staff
look.
But
if
there
are
some
of
those
that
may
have
some
other
potential
we'd
be
delighted
to
look
at
those
and
bia
in
conversation
with
some
investors.
Who
might
look
at
some
of
these?
It
might
have
some
potential
okay.
C
Nothing
else:
okay.
Thank
you
very
much,
Steve
thanks
for
the
time
and
effort
on
this.
Thank
you
a
critical
issue.
Yeah.
Thank
you.
At
this
point,
we
went
from
being
a
little
behind
schedule
to
ahead
of
schedule,
came
in
under
budget
ste.
At
this
point,
is
there
a
motion
to
adjourn
the
city
council
work
session.
