Councilmember Heinrich stated that she likes the patriotic aspect but wondered if it would make <br /> more sense to reduce the number and install on every other pole rather than every pole. <br /> Councilmember Riley commented that it would be a wonderful addition, but this looks like a lot <br /> of flags. <br /> Councilmember Musgrove asked if the picture identifies the light poles or the location of the <br /> flags. <br /> City Administrator Ulrich confirmed that the map identifies all of the light poles, but the focus <br /> would be around the City Hall area and provided additional details. He stated that they would <br /> not propose flags on every light pole. He stated that they could start on a smaller scale with <br /> about 25 flags to see how it looks and could always build the program up. <br /> Councilmember Musgrove stated that she loves this idea but has concern with the yearly cost and <br /> would like more information on that. She stated that she would also like information on where <br /> the flags would be stored when they are not displayed. <br /> Councilmember Menth stated that this would come down to the question of when more is better. <br /> He stated that City Hall does have a flagpole and wanted the City to be cautious of diluting the <br /> image of the flag. He used the example of car sale lots that place multiple flags in attempt to sell <br /> more vehicles. <br /> Councilmember Specht agreed that it would be great to start on a smaller scale with 25 flags and <br /> build on that as sponsorship is gained. <br /> Mayor LeTourneau confirmed the consensus of the Council to continue to move forward with <br /> this concept program. <br /> City Administrator Ulrich confirmed that the next step would be to continue discussions with <br /> Connexus. <br /> 7.07: Adopt Resolution #20-040 Approving Listing of Northern Seven (7) Acres of Lot 1, <br /> Block 1, Bury and Carlson Addition <br /> Deputy City Administrator Gladhill reviewed the staff report and recommendation to of the EDA <br /> and Public Works Committee to reduce the listing area to the northern seven acres to allow time <br /> for the final plans and specifications for the future public works campus to be completed. The <br /> Public Works Committee asked to re-evaluate the listing once preliminary plans are completed <br /> for the project and will then consider adding back in the additional 1.9 acres. <br /> Councilmember Musgrove stated that she simply wanted additional information on the spacing <br /> of the land, the timing of when the public works campus design would be known, as well as the <br /> time the land would be listed on the market. <br /> City Council/February 24,2020 <br /> Page 8 of 9 <br />
