AGENDA

CITY OF MOSCOW


PUBLIC WORKS/FINANCE COMMITTEE


Monday, February 26, 2007
4:30 p.m.


CITY HALL COUNCIL CHAMBERS


206 East 3rd Street, 2nd Floor 

1.      Approval of Minutes February 12, 2007 - Stephanie Kalasz

 

2.      CTAI Membership (2008 5309 Transit Funding) - Dean Weyen

FY 2008 Federal funding may be available for construction of bus
turnouts and shelters for Moscow's fixed route transit (bus) system.
The application group consisting of a coalition of various Idaho groups
known as the Community Transit Association of Idaho (CTAI) engages the
services of a Washington D.C. based consulting firm to assist the
application and lobbying for these funds.  The contract attached is the
agreement with CTAI committing Moscow to a portion of the consultant and
coalition membership fees.  Moscow's fee is presently estimated to be
$3,155 as shown on Exhibit 'A' attached to the proposed contract.
Moscow was awarded $88,000 of federal monies from a successful FY 2006
application through this same 5309 Transit funding program.   Moscow's
FY 2007 5309 application through CTAI was unsuccessful because congress
elected not to appropriate program funding.

 

ACTION:  Recommend approval or take such other action deemed
appropriate.

 

3.      Transit Funding for 2007-08 - Gary J. Riedner

Staff has been working with various public transit stakeholders in the
effort of identifying potential funding strategies to address the
University of Idaho's anticipated reduction in funding for Wheatland
Express and its corollary impact upon the City's Valley Transit fixed
route service.  Staff will present an update on the status of the issue
for the Committee's consideration.

 

ACTION:  Receive report and direct staff as deemed appropriate.

 

4.      Sidewalk Snow Removal Proposal - Les MacDonald

During the fall of 2006, Kit Craine brought to the Transportation
Commission her concerns regarding the lack of snow removal by private
property owners throughout the City of Moscow.  The Transportation
Commission discussed the topic over several meetings and ultimately
recommended that it be forwarded to the Council for consideration.  Ms.
Craine will be making the presentation to the Committee regarding her
proposal on how to improve the citizen compliance with the city codes
pertaining to snow removal from sidewalks.

 

ACTION:  Receive report and direct staff as deemed appropriate.
