B. Approval of Minutes October 8, 2007 - Stephanie Kalasz

 

2.      Proposed Noise Ordinance Amendment - Assistant Chief Duke

This would amend Moscow City Code Tile 10, Chapter 11 regarding the
Noise Ordinance Sec. 11.9.C.  The proposed changes will assist the
Police Department in addressing repeat offenders outside the current 48
hour warning period.  In addition, officers can use discretion at the
time contact is made with the responsible individual on the best process
for immediate cease all noise in excess of limits delineated by the
Ordinance.  The victim will no longer have to be contacted for charges
or sign a citation when the officers are called and observe the
violation.  The changes will directly impact boarding houses where large
groups of people assemble or known party houses with a history of public
nuisance complaints.  This was considered by the Administrative
Committee on September 24 and Council on October 1, 2007.  The Council
considered the Ordinance on first reading and asked that it be sent back
to the Administrative Committee to take public input and for
consideration of changes. 

 

ACTION:  Consider input from the public and direct staff to amend the
draft Ordinance as deemed appropriate.

 

3.      Resolution for Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Goal - Alisa
Stone

A Disadvantage Business Enterprise (DBE) Program has been developed as
part of the requirements for receiving Department of Transportation
funding.  The DBE program's primary objective is to ensure
nondiscrimination in the award, administration of federally funded
contracts and to create a level playing field for DBEs to compete for
these projects.  The Grants Coordinator has prepared a DBE Program with
a .65% DBE participation goal for all Federally-funded projects for the
Federal fiscal year of 2007-08.  The DBE Program, the proposed goal and
its rationale are described in the policy statement and attachments.
The City of Moscow has published a notice of the proposed overall goal
informing the public that the proposed goal and its rationale are
available for inspection during normal business hours at the Moscow City
Hall, Administrative Department for thirty days following the date of
the notice (August 24, 2007), and that comments where accepted on the
proposed goals for forty-five days following the date of the notice
(October 9, 2007).

 

ACTION:  Recommend approval of the Resolution for the Disadvantaged
Business Enterprise (DBE) Policy Statement, Program, and the FY2007-08
.65 percent Annual Participation Goal and Methodology for
Federally-funded projects or take other such action as deemed
appropriate.

 

4.      Proposed Sister Cities Policy - David Duke

The Moscow Human Rights Commission has requested that the City Council
adopt a revised Sister Cities program as contained in the attached draft
policy.  The matter was considered by the Administrative Committee on
June 11, 2007 at which time the Committee requested a review by the City
Attorney.  Randy Fife has reviewed the document and made some minor
changes which were included in the attached draft policy.  On September
24th, 2007, the Administrative Committee sent the draft back to the
Human Rights Commission to clarify the number of cities allowed and
which continents would be applicable.  The Human Rights Commission meet
on October 15th, 2007 and formally moved to have only one (1) sister
city per continent and added Australia and North America in section 3(f)
to the continents.  The minutes of the June 11 and September 24, 2007
Administrative Committee meetings are attached.

 

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

AGENDA

CITY OF MOSCOW


PUBLIC WORKS/FINANCE COMMITTEE


Monday, October 22, 2007
4:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.


CITY HALL COUNCIL CHAMBERS


206 East 3rd Street, 2nd Floor 

1.      Approval of Minutes October 8, 2007 - Stephanie Kalasz

 

2.      Gritman Medical Center West 'A' Street Lot Division Request -
Bill Belknap 

Gritman Medical Center is requesting to divide the western portion of
Lot 1, Block 4 of the Replat of Hatley's Addition to the City of Moscow
to create a new parcel of 1.22 acres from the current 4.69 acre parcel.
They are currently preparing the site for development of medical office
facilities adjacent to the Ambulatory Surgical Center on West 'A'
Street.  All required public improvements are completed and in place and
staff recommends approval of the proposed lot division.

 

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

 

3.      Linda Lane LID - Dave Klatt

This improvement district will construct pavement, curb and sidewalk on
Linda Lane. The 24-foot pavement width, sidewalk on one side only and a
less-than-standard cul-de-sac are issues that were presented to Public
Works Committee on Jan. 22, 2007 and to the Council on Feb. 05, 2007.
The Council concurred that standard develop of this street probably
would never occur due to the terrain and the narrow right-of-way; and
that the proposed design concept constituted an adequate public
improvement for vehicles and pedestrians without negatively impacting
any of the developed properties. Based on this decision, a petition was
circulated among the effected property owners to gauge the amount of
interest. Four of the five non-resident property owners have signed the
petition. This represents 80% of the owners in support of the district.
A 65% figure is required for non-residents to initiate a district.

 

      ACTION:  Place this item on a future Council agenda to address the
Resolution of Intent to Create a Local Improvement District; or take
other action deemed appropriate.

 

4.      N. Polk Waterline LID - Dave Klatt

Four of the six property owners along north Polk Street have submitted a
petition to create a Local Improvement District (LID) for the purpose of
constructing a water main along all or part of their frontages. Because
many of the owners are non-resident, the support for creating an LID
must be at least 65% of the owners signing the petition. This petition
contains signatures of 66.7% of the verified owners. The scope of the
work would include water mains, valves, service lines and hydrants. The
LID would pay for the cost to install an 8-inch main and the City of
Moscow would pay to oversize the main to a 12-inch diameter. Funds
carried over from the N. Polk Sewer District will be applied to the LID
share of this improvement. The annexation of approximately one acre of
property will precede the final acceptance of the LID boundary.

 

      ACTION:  Place this item on a future Council agenda to address a
Resolution of Intent to Create Local Improvement District; or take other
action deemed appropriate.

 

5.      Fountain Construction Easement Agreement Addendum No. 1 - Dean
Weyen

The Fountain's entered into an agreement with the City last July which
allowed the City an easement on Fountain property for the construction
of the new South Sewer Lift Station.  Now that the construction of the
project has had to be delayed a season, an addendum to the agreement is
required to modify the effective period of the construction easement.

 

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