Principal City Engineer Olson replied that that was not the case. Councilmember Anderson stated that the sewer and water discussion is a major issue, but is a policy question. She stated that preliminary plat and the sewer policy need to be separated. Motion by Councilmember Kurak, seconded by Councilmember Hendriksen, to table action and recommend that Councilmember Hendriksen meet with the City Engineer prior to the next meeting to discuss his concerns. Further discussion: Councilmember Hendriksen disagreed with the characterization of him asking questions. He explained that he was attempting to discuss policy where it appears to be in conflict of what is being proposed. They never did resolve the issues when it was discussed at work session. He inquired if they could add to the motion that the adjoining property owners along Sunfish Lake Boulevard be notified of the next meeting and that there are more options within the density transition ordinance than simply screening. Councilmember Anderson stated that she thought it would be more appropriate to discuss the policy at a future work session. City Attorney Goodrich inquired if there was any concern with the 60-day requirement. Principal Planner Trudgeon replied that the Council has until November 6th to act on the plat. Motion by Councilmember Hendriksen, seconded by Councilmember Zimmerman, to amend the motion to direct staff to inform the three property owners along Sunfish Lake Boulevard of the full extent of the density transition ordinance by providing a copy of the ordinance and notification of the next meeting.
