Rendezvous in the Park on July 19, 20, and 21 from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m.; no
beer garden is planned for Sunday, July 22.  There will be food vendors,
live music, and other activities at the event.  The licensed vendor will
sell alcohol to adults with proof of age in one designated, roped off
area.  Rendezvous in the Park event organizers will provide their own
security, which is supported by Moscow Police Chief, Dan Weaver.  Since
the first beer garden was approved by the City Council in 2005, there
have been no alcohol related incidents at the Rendezvous in the Park
event.  The Administrative Committee, on May 14, 2007, reviewed the
request and referred it back to staff so the applicant could have
additional discussion with the Police Department.

ACTION:  Recommend approval of the Resolution; or recommend denial of
the Resolution; or take such other action deemed appropriate.

every two years and further states that such adjustment shall be made in
accordance with the Consumer Price Index (3.4% for 2006 - 3.4% for
2007).  This action requires the amendment of MCC 1-8-1 and 1-8-2 in
accordance with the attached draft Ordinance.

Ordinance; or take such other action deemed appropriate.

3.      Green Acres Final Plat - Andrew Ackerman

On March 28th, 2007, Planning and Zoning Commission recommended approval
of the preliminary plat for a planned unit development on approximately
5.3 acres south of White Avenue on Bristol Road.  Council approved the
preliminary plat on May 7th with eight (8) conditions. On May 18th,
2007, the applicants submitted their final plat.  Staff has reviewed the
plat for general conformance with the conditions imposed on the
preliminary plat and has scheduled it for review at the June 13th
Planning and Zoning Commission meeting and the June 18th City Council
meeting.  Additionally, Engineering has prepared a development agreement
related to this plat which is scheduled to go to Council on June 18th.

ACTION:  Recommend approval of the final plat contingent on Planning and
Zoning Commission approval; or recommend rejection of the final plat; or
take such other action deemed appropriate.

4.      Green Acres Development Agreement - Dean Weyen

Green Acres Development, LLC (Rick Beebe and Larry Germer) is the
developer of the Green Acres Addition (PUD) to the City of Moscow.
Public improvements are required.  A Development Agreement is necessary
to allow filing of the plat and to allow issuance of a building permit
prior to the construction of all required public improvements.

ACTION:  Recommend approval of the agreement; or recommend rejection of
the agreement; or take such other action deemed appropriate.

5.      Robinson Mobile Home Park Lot Division - Andrew Ackerman

The proposed division would create three (3) lots from the existing
approximately 103 acres and dedicate additional right-of-way to the City
along the northern property line. The property is located in the
Multi-Family Residential (R-4) Zoning District.  The new lots would all
exceed the minimum lot size. The new lots as surveyed are proposed as
follows: Parcel 1 = 30.97 ac., Parcel 2 = 1.69 ac., and the Remainder
Parcel = 77.73 ac. (Robinson Mobile Home Courts).  The lot division
includes a 30 foot wide dedication of right-of-way to the City along the
entire northern property line. Staff also reviewed the lot division for
compliance with Title VI, Ch. 2-9 of the Mobile Home Parks Code. The
proposed divisions would not create any non-conformities to the existing
Mobile Home Park.

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

6.      PBAC Funding Request for FY 2008 - Les MacDonald

The Palouse Basin Aquifer Committee has discussed requesting an increase
in it's funding from the four major pumpers from a total of $28, 000 per
year to $40,000.  The current funding level is divided $8,000 for
Committee administration and $20,000 for aquifer research.  The
increased level of funding would be $20,000 for Committee administration
(to include on going water level monitoring in the basin) and $20,000
for research.  The smaller pumpers and counties also are being asked to
increase their level of support at the same percent of increase.  The
primary reason for the increase in the administrative funding is to
continue the support of the existing Executive Manager position. Funding
for this position is currently available for one more year.  Attached
are a resolution to be passed by PBAC that sets the level of funding and
assigns voting rights of members which are determined by the level of
funding support provided by each member entity and an Addendum to the
"Palouse Basin Aquifer Committee Interagency Agreement". The attached
documents indicate that only those entities supporting the requested
level of funding would have full voting member representation at PBAC.
The Addendum will need to be considered, approved by Council and signed
by the Mayor for the funding increase to become effective. 

ACTION:  Forward both documents to Council for consideration, with a
positive recommendation from Committee or other appropriate action as
deemed appropriate.

7.      Vacation of Right-of-Way and Easement in Christopher's Crossing
Subdivision - Dean Weyen

Colin Johnson received City Council approval to reconfigure Lots 1 and
2, Block B of Christopher's Crossing Subdivision in to three lots; a
change that also included a modified location of both the Lande Lane
cul-de-sac and the connecting sidewalk to Hirschi Road.  The
reconfiguration requires that a portion of the originally platted
cul-de-sac right-of-way and an access and utility easement across Lot 2
be vacated.        

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