City Administrator Ulrich stated that the shoefly option has almost been eliminated because of <br /> the additional costs. He stated that the City did already purchase a site for the new public works <br /> campus. <br /> Mayor LeTourneau asked whether now is the time to address this issue. <br /> Councilmember Kuzma stated that in the past he has been against moving forward on the project <br /> because he was unsure how the project could be funded. He explained that in the last year his <br /> understanding has changed on why this is needed for the growing community. He stated that he <br /> would be interested in moving forward to identify the best alternative for financing. <br /> Councilmember Heinrich thanked Public Works Superintendent Reimer for taking her on two <br /> tours of the public works building and explaining the needs.

She stated that she would support looking into the funding options for this to move <br /> forward. <br /> Councilmember Shryock stated that she agrees that this should move forward and would agree <br /> that staff should investigate other financing options that could change the burden on bonding. <br /> Councilmember Riley stated that he would also be interested in using the money the City has as <br /> well. He stated that he appreciates the options being considered but stated that an interest only <br /> loan is typically only chosen when someone cannot afford something. He stated that he would <br /> be interested in utilizing the landfill fund. <br /> Councilmember Musgrove agreed that having the office in the trailer is not the safest option and <br /> public works is running out of space.
