<br />Consensus of the Council was to direct staff to email Councilmembers with two or three options <br />for the name of the bus service to be considered by the Council. <br /> <br />City Administrator Norman indicated staff would like authorization to match funds that Mr. Deal <br />has indicated he would provide in order to do some major marketing for the open house event. <br /> <br />Mr. Tinklenberg stated this is an event with multiple opportunities. The NCDA will be holding <br />their meeting at the new City Hall and the City will be able to showcase Town Center. This <br />event has some real benefits, along with the possibility for a public/private partnership with Mr. <br />Deal. <br /> <br />Councilmember Jeffrey concurred. He suggested the County be encouraged to participate in the <br />event. He indicated he is in support of authorizing funds for this event if Mr. Deal will be <br />contributing as a corporate partner. <br /> <br />Consensus of the Council was to direct staff to include a case on the Council meeting requesting <br />authorization for a $10,000 expenditure for the open house event, with $10,000 to be matched by <br />Mr. Deal. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec suggested a not-to-exceed amount be included in the authorization, as he <br />questions the $10,000 amount. He commented they should be able to get participation from area <br />businesses. <br /> <br />Mr. Tinklenberg indicated Coborn expressed an interest in being involved with the event. In <br />every way possible the cost to the public will be kept as low as possible, with a detailed budget. <br /> <br />Councilmember Elvig arrived at 6:43 p.m. <br /> <br />2) Alpine & Co. Rd. #5 Intersection/Skyline Development <br /> <br />Public Works Director Olson indicated the last time there was discussion about the Skyline <br />Pointe development there was significant discussion about the intersection of Alpine Drive and <br />CR #5. A sketch has been included in the Council packet showing this intersection. Sketches <br />have been provided of potential changes in alignment that will improve the intersection. Mr. <br />Olson stated it should be noted that the accident records on file for this intersection did not meet <br />the warrants for an all-way stop sign. The recommended improvement is a long term fix, and <br />would improve the intersection in the event it becomes signalized or there is an accident history <br />in the near future that would allow for it to be an all-way stop. Mr. Olson indicated the platting <br />of Skyline Pointe provides an opportunity to acquire needed right-of-way in the southwest <br />quadrant of this intersection. Staff has discussed this with the developer and they are willing to <br />change their plat to provide the right-of-way. They will also contribute $50,000 for intersection <br />construction and construct turn lanes on N owthen Boulevard at 1515t Lane. Staff is <br />recommending that this intersection be moved up to 2007 in the CIP. <br /> <br />City Council Work Session I September 26, 2006 <br />Page 2 of 4 <br />
