County Commissioner Matt Look congratulated the new members of the Council and election of the Mayor. He stated that an evaluation study was recently completed on Highway 10 in order to develop cost saving alternatives. He stated that additional funding was able to be secured and hoped that the evaluation study would help to close the gap and gain additional funding. He hoped that the findings in the plan would be acceptable to the City. He referenced the Semen issue that was just brought up, noting that he had the opportunity to meet the family. He commented that the family had a drainage problem that was sloughing dirt from the property onto the path and into the wetland. He stated that the property owners attempted to resolve that erosion issue which created problems with the easement. He stated that the constituents reached out to him, which is not uncommon. He stated that he reached out to City staff in attempt to find a quick and inexpensive resolution, but the situation has only become more expensive and lengthier. He stated that he is disappointed to hear that his involvement was a disadvantage to the residents. He stated that he hopes that this issue could be resolved quickly, and that common ground could be gained without costing the residents additional funds. Deputy City Administrator Gladhill stated that an update on Highway 10 will be provided to the Council at its next worksession. 4.
