1. Call to Order
Mayor Brian Stumpf called the special meeting to order at 5 p.m.
2. 5 p.m. Fire Station Budget Items
Jeff O'Neill, City Administrator, Fire Chief Mossey, and Dan Klein, Fire Marshal,
presented the item and distributed a spreadsheet of budget items for the new fire station.
Within this list were a series of items that staff would like approval of now and other
items to be approved in the future. Staff and Council then reviewed the list. Staff
presented the following items for support from Council to add to budget:
Monument/Electronic Sign; Epoxy Flooring, Technology for Training Room; Floor
Scrubber; Flammability Cabinet; Retro Fit Tanker 7 for Exhaust System; Grill; Sauna;
Training Walls; Exercise Equipment; Striping Soccer Parking Lot; Landscaping and
Irrigation; Road Signs; and Station Alerting system. There were some items such as the
grill, sauna, exercise equipment, that the Council thought could be paid for by donations
and/or other funding sources. There was discussion on larger items such as the epoxy
floor and the EOC that need to have further review as the project develops. There was
consensus to keep the list as presented but research additional funding sources for some
of the items.
3. 5:45 p.m. Public Works Facility Discussion
Matt Leonard gave a presentation on the current Public Works Facility, a 2007 Public
Works Needs Study, Public Works Facility tours, and the city's Public Works site
selection process and choices. The Public Works Building Committee narrowed site
selection down to three choices: Edmonson Farm — 85th and Edmonson; Dundas and
Cedar; and Ruff Auto site — Elm Street. Discussion ensued among the City Council.
There was no preference on one particular site, however, Mayor Stumpf is not in favor of
the Ruff Auto site. Direction was given to gather more information as needed on the
market, land price, costs, etc.
4. Adjournment
By consensus the meeting was adjourned at 6:15 p.m.
