Councilmember Musgrove asked if a resolution is needed or whether the City simply needs to <br /> update the policy/designs. <br /> Deputy City Administrator Gladhill stated that having the backing of the Council through <br /> resolution helps with developer discussions. He stated that the language is broad enough yet <br /> specific enough for negotiations and code enforcement. <br /> City Engineer Westby replied that the Council does not adopt the design standards per se,therefore <br /> the resolution provides the policy direction to guide those standards. <br /> Deputy City Administrator Gladhill explained that this direction and policy from the Council is <br /> helpful on the front end to prevent a situation like Riverwalk from occurring. <br /> Motion by Councilmember Musgrove, seconded by Councilmember Woestehoff, to recommend <br /> City Council approval of a resolution adopting minimum requirements for public utilities in public <br /> right-of-way and easements as discussed. <br /> Further discussion: Chairperson Riley commented that if staff feels that additional language is <br /> needed for the resolution it should be added as discussed.
