Motion by Councilmember Riley, seconded by Councilmember Johns, to close the public <br /> hearing. <br /> Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor LeTourneau, Councilmembers Riley, Johns, Kuzma, <br /> Musgrove, and Shryock. Voting No: None. <br /> The public hearing was closed at 7:56 p.m. <br /> Council Business <br /> Councilmember Johns stated that she loves the document, as it is such a good planning tool that <br /> allows the City to lay out strategic items. She stated that the addition of prioritizing items from <br /> the previous year made the document much more user friendly. She acknowledged the amount <br /> of work from staff that is needed to create and keep this document updated. <br /> Councilmember Riley stated that he is opposed to the water treatment facility found in the years <br /> 2027 and 2028. He noted that there is not a study that states the City will need that and the City <br /> is also currently looking at a surface water treatment facility. He noted that the City is also part <br /> of a study that states that because of conservation efforts that treatment facility may not be <br /> needed. <br /> Motion by Councilmember Riley, seconded by Councilmember Musgrove, to Adopt Resolution <br /> #18-257 Adopting the 2018-2027 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), with the removal of the water <br /> treatment facility removed from 2027 and 2028. <br /> Further discussion: Councilmember Shryock stated that the CIP is simply a planning document <br /> and by keeping those items as placeholders in the future it reminds the City of the things that <br /> may be needed in the future. She acknowledged that the City is taking part in studies and <br /> perhaps when the results of those studies are known the item could be removed, but until then <br /> would feel more comfortable keeping that item included on the CIP. Councilmember Kuzma <br /> stated that he likes to have options, and this is simply a planning document. He noted that there <br /> is a possibility that the City may not be able to dig more wells, and would then have a shortage <br /> and should therefore continue to have the item in the CIP until additional information is known. <br /> Motion failed. Voting Yes: Councilmembers Riley, and Musgrove.
