UNFINISHED BUSINESS
116666 - Welper/Jordan
that request from Councilperson Hurley .to reconsider resolution instructing
City Clerk to publish notice of plans, specifications, form of contract, etc.
and taking of bids for the F.Y. 2002 Street Reconstruction Program, Contract
No. 646, and setting date of hearing as April 8, 2002, be received, placed on
file and approved.
Prior to a vote on the above motion, the following comments were heard.
Councilperson Berry stated that not much progress has been made on the minority
program, and she does not see how the city can go forward with this project
without a program in place. Councilperson Berry stated it comes down to the
mayor's leadership and the city council making a decision. Councilperson Berry
stated she feels both sides have made a good attempt to come up with a program.
Following comments a vote was taken on the above motion with the following
result. Ayes: Six. Nays: Berry. Motion carried.
116667 - Jordan/Hurley
that "Resolution setting date of hearing on plans, specifications, form of
contract, etc. as April 8, 2002, at 5:30 p.m. in the City Hall Council Chambers
and taking of bids for the F.Y. 2002 Street Reconstruction Program, Contract
No. 646", be adopted and City Clerk instructed to publish notice of same.
Prior to a vote on the above motion, the following comments were heard.
Councilperson Hurley stated that if the resolution is adopted we would use the
1986 Contract Compliance Program. Councilperson Hurley asked if the resolution
is passed to set the date of hearing as April 8, 2002 would that be adequate
time to notify everyone. Eric Thorson, City Engineer, stated his assistant
contacted the contractors, and they indicated there would be adequate time if
the hearing were held on April 8, 2002.
Councilperson Berry stated that at the Goal Setting Committee meeting today the
prime contractors only wanted a goal of 5 percent even though 38 percent of the
items have been identified which could be subcontracted to the minority
contractors. The minority contractors feel a 10 percent goal is fair.
Councilperson Berry stated she thinks it is unfair to the new council members
because they do not know what has been happening. Councilperson Berry stated
she feels the Contract Compliance Officer needs to make a recommendation to the
mayor and council that this is how it is going to be.
Mayor Rooff stated that at the last Goal Setting Committee meeting, the prime
contractors wanted a 5 percent goal and the minority contractors wanted a 10
percent goal. At today's meeting, they felt a percent was not as important as
low bid or showing effort has been made to include minorities.
Councilperson Clark asked if the council approves the resolution tonight will
there be no change in the program until next year. Mayor Rooff responded that
the council can take action on the minority program, but the reconstruction
project is the biggest project of the year. Councilperson Clark stated
approving going forward with the project doesn't mean we will stop working on
the minority program as it will remain in front of us and dealt with. Mayor
Rooff stated that until the council looks at the contract and there is
inclusion, he does not feel we can ever stop meeting.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS CONTINUED
Councilperson Greenwood stated that in fairness to the citizens waiting for
their streets to be repaired, we should proceed, but we should not stop
discussions.
Councilperson Hurley stated he agrees with Councilperson Greenwood.
Councilperson Hurley stated he feels there is something wrong and that it might
be a trust issue which he does not know how to fix. Councilperson Hurley
stated we need to continue discussion, but time is against us. Councilperson
Hurley stated he does not think the citizens will stand for any more dollars
spent that we have to, and if there were a chance the city would not take the
low bid, the citizens will not stand for that.
Following comments a vote was taken on the above motion with the following
result. Ayes: Six. Nays: Berry.
Resolution adopted and upon approval by Mayor assigned No. 2002-158.

Prior to a vote on the above motion, the following comments were heard.
Don Temeyer, City Planner, stated that if the council feels it is necessary,
they can set a date of hearing on the site plan amendment. The addition is for
a bar and grill, not just a restaurant. Councilperson Jordan responded that he
does not see a reason to hold a hearing on this request as it is all commercial
property in that area, including a strip mall, Fitzgerald's and Jim Lind's
Standard. Councilperson Jordan stated he believes this will be a top-notch
business and an asset to the area.

just reinstates the $1,000 minimum requirement.

Councilperson Hurley stated that he feels it is a matter of trust of staff.
The Department Heads sit through the budgets and are put through the ringer.
The council sees all the expenditures on the bills payment printout.
Councilperson Hurley stated that in the eight to ten weeks he has been a
council member, only once or twice has a request been denied. Councilperson
Hurley stated the Department Heads go from Standing Committees to the council
and jump through a lot of hoops for a staff that is already stretched.
Councilperson Hurley stated he would like to bring staff some relief. The
original proposal was for a $2,500 minimum, but that was voted down by the
Finance Committee.
Councilperson Berry stated she agrees with the $2,500 minimum.
Councilperson Jordan stated he has been a council member for eight years. This
is more of an issue of meeting with staff to discuss their requests. Over the
years, the Finance Committee has thrown a lot of ideas on the table, and this
is just sort of an overview.
Councilperson Greenwood stated Department Heads are good stewards of the
citizens' money. Councilperson Greenwood stated he has not seen any frivolous
buying, and he agrees with the $1,000 minimum.
Councilperson Welper stated that during the campaign the new council said they
would make the city more efficient and a $2,500 minimum would do that.
Councilperson Welper stated setting the minimum at $1,000 is a good start.

ORDINANCES TO BE ADOPTED CONTINUED
Page 7
Councilperson Jordan stated that he is concerned that this is just a backdoor
way of raising money to cover costs.
Ned DeBerg, Fire Chief, stated he is requesting the fees because the fire
inspectors review the sprinkler system plans and visit the building once the
sprinkler system is installed. When the sprinkler system is finished, the fire
inspectors do a final inspection to make sure everything is done right and
working correctly. Inspectors spend a lot of time on the new sprinkler
systems. Chief DeBerg reviewed the fee structure. Chief DeBerg stated the
proposed schedule of permit fees is based on the number of sprinkler heads.
Chief DeBerg stated the new fee schedule will take effect on July 1, 2002.
Councilperson Welper stated that while reviewing the F.Y. 2003 Budget, the
council found a lot of services that other cities charge a fee and Waterloo is
