2 <br /> <br /> Mr. O’Connell asked if Council supports moving forward with this approach. <br /> <br /> Mr. Norris said he is not convinced of the need for a consultant to work with the <br />Advisory Committee. <br /> <br /> Mr. Huja said he agrees with Mr. Norris unless expertise is needed. <br /> <br /> Dr. Brown said it makes sense to have a facilitator who understands the topic. Dr. <br />Brown said he agrees about having matching funds for grants. Dr. Brown asked for more <br />detailed information about the rest of the recommendations. <br /> <br /> Ms. Mueller said that a big part of the cost is to set up a billing system. <br /> <br /> Dr. Brown said he thinks reasons to do as recommended are: it meets regulations, <br />addresses drainage, and addresses our aging infrastructure. <br /> <br /> Mr. Norris said he is hearing general consensus on the breakdown provided by <br />staff. <br /> <br /> Ms. Riddervold reviewed the proposed categories for membership on the <br />Advisory Committee, and said that one or two neighborhood representatives could be <br />added. She said the Committee would meet six or seven times for the next six months <br />and would discuss: what components of the program are most important; what level of <br />service is desired; what is a fair monthly fee; and what are incentive program ideas. She <br />said the idea is that it would be a Mayor appointed Committee. <br /> <br /> Mr. Huja said he thinks there should be at least three to five neighborhood <br />representatives on the Committee. <br /> <br /> Dr. Brown suggested that the Mayor come up with a list that Council okays, but <br />the Mayor appoints. <br /> <br /> Mr. O’Connell suggested adding a Chamber of Commerce representative. <br /> <br /> Ms. Riddervold noted that the program has an aggressive timetable. <br /> <br /> Mr. Norris asked how this program will fit into the budget, and Mr. Bernard <br />Wray, Finance Director, said that it will require a budget amendment. <br /> <br /> The meeting was adjourned. <br /> <br />______________________________ _____________________________ <br />President Clerk <br /> <br />
