Councilwoman Becraft moved to approve the minutes of January 16, 2001, as written. Councilman Tafoya seconded the motion. Council members Becraft, Nakayu, Smith, and Tafoya voted "aye." The motion carried.

APPROVAL OF THE CONSENT AGENDA

Councilman Nakayu moved to approve the Consent Agenda consisting of: Final inspection for conditional acceptance of subdivision improvements for Chelle Cove Subdivision No. 2 at approximately 4600 South 4150 West. Councilman Smith seconded the motion. Council members Becraft, Nakayu, Smith, and Tafoya voted "aye." The motion carried.

Blake Wahlen stated that during the latter part of the summer, Waste Management asked the City Council to approve a temporary fuel surcharge due to the price of gasoline. The Council approved a 6-month surcharge. Waste Management was asking that the fuel surcharge be continued at a lesser rate of $0.29 a gallon. The cost of the surcharge would be $446.60. Mr. Wahlen said the City had received a $2,416.00 credit from Waste Management. The staff recommended that the City Council extend the surcharge for another six months retroactive to January 1st.

Councilman Smith moved to approve a temporary fuel surcharge of $0.29 a gallon for Waste Management for six months retroactive to January 1, 2001. Councilman Tafoya seconded the motion. Commission members Becraft, Nakayu, Smith, and Tafoya voted "aye." The motion carried.

Councilwoman Becraft asked about a recycling program. Jim Jones, from Waste Management, said the problem with a recycling program in Weber County was the cost to transport everything to Salt Lake. Waste Management was meeting with Weber County to discuss consolidating recycled material onto larger trucks for transportation. He would report back to Blake Wahlen on the outcome of the meeting. Blake Wahlen said that right now a recycling program would not come close to paying for itself because of the price of commodities.

Fire Chief Jon Ritchie stated that the City had had a gentleman's agreement with Clinton City for mutual fire protection for about 20 years. Clinton offered Roy quite a bit. Roy had not assisted them on a structural fire yet, but Clinton had helped Roy with brush fires on several occasions. Clinton City had asked that Roy approve an interlocal agreement for fire protection and emergency services. The agreement would be subject to Clinton receiving an ambulance license from the State. Chief Ritchie said there would be no cost to the City.

Mayor Burnett asked if there was an ambulance at the County fire station on 4000 South. Chief Ritchie said there was not. The City used to keep an ambulance at the station on 4000 South when it was involved in a joint venture with the County. It discontinued that venture when the second fire station in Roy was finished. Roy City still had an reciprocal agreement with Weber County, and the City's licensed coverage area was north to 2250 South and west to the lake.

Councilman Nakayu asked about the length of the agreement. Councilman Smith said the agreement indicated it would remain in effect until either party received a three-month notice.

Chris Davis stated that an interlocal agreement had to be approved by resolution. The staff would include a resolution on the next Council agenda.

Councilman Smith moved to approve the following beer licenses for 2001: Excel III - Class A; Fitzgerald's Family Bowl Center - Class C and Class D; Jimmy's Lounge - Class D; Manuels El Burrito II - Class B; Rainbow Saloon - Class C and Class D; Rudies - Class C; Sacco's Produce - Class A; and Sinclair # 43012 - Class A. Councilman Tafoya seconded the motion. Commission members Becraft, Nakayu, Smith, and Tafoya voted "aye." The motion carried.

Councilman Smith asked that in the future the staff include a definition of the different classes of beer and liquor licenses.

CITY MANAGER'S REPORT

Blake Wahlen stated that the staff had looked at different sites for the outdoor pool and eliminated some due to the cost. The staff was continuing to look at one site. It had met with the property owners and asked for an answer within 30 days. The staff would continue to explore that last alternative. If it did not work out, the staff would probably recommend that the outdoor pool be located at Roy Park.

Councilman Smith asked if the last site was within a reasonable price range. Mr. Wahlen felt it was. Councilwoman Becraft asked how soon the City needed to begin working on the outdoor pool. Mr. Wahlen said about a month ago. However, the staff and Council wanted to make sure the pool was located in the right place.

Blake Wahlen updated the City Council on the Silver Creek Commercial Development. Because of a possible tenant, the developers were asking for a conceptual revision of the original site plan. Unless the Council strongly objected, the staff planned to allow the developer to submit their proposal.

Councilman Smith felt the Council should support the proposed amendment because the possible tenant would be a state office building and could provide a number of employment positions in Roy. Blake Wahlen stated that if and when this site was selected, the developer would be required to complete all of the off site improvements.

Blake Wahlen stated that the mayor of Hooper City had submitted a written request that the City provide a sewer connection for the new elementary school on 5500 South outside the City limits. The cost of the sewer installation would not be the City's responsibility, and the connection would not be permanent. Mr. Wahlen said about 90% of the students that would attend the new elementary school would be from Roy. Unless the Council objected, the staff would place formal approval of the sewer connection on the next Council agenda. He felt the City could tie the sewer service and safety issues together.

Councilman Nakayu asked about a wheeling fee. Mr. Wahlen said the City would receive a wheeling fee and a connection fee.

Councilman Tafoya asked how long the school would use the connection. Mr. Wahlen said it could be three to five years.

Councilwoman Becraft asked about the arena on 4300 West. Blake Wahlen stated the first Council meeting in March would include a discussion about making the posse grounds part of the Southwest Park master plan.

Chris Davis stated that Resolution No. 720 would direct the staff to complete the Sexually-Oriented Business Ordinance.

Councilman Tafoya asked if there were areas in the City that a sexually-oriented business could be located. Mr. Davis said there were.

Councilman Nakayu moved to approve Resolution No. 720, a resolution adopting a notice of pending amendments to the Zoning and Business License Ordinances by enacting a Sexually-Oriented Business Ordinance. Councilwoman Becraft seconded the motion. A roll call vote was taken: Council members Smith, Becraft, Nakayu, and Tafoya voted "aye." The motion carried. (Copy filed for record).

Mayor Burnett stated that meetings on the North Legacy Corridor Study would be held on February 21st at the Syracuse City Hall and February 28th from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. at the Hooper Elementary School cafeteria.

Mayor Burnett stated that the Golden Spike Events Center would be hosting the National Collegiate Rodeo Series. They were asking for volunteers to help.

Councilman Nakayu stated that he had received an e-mail commending the Police Department for their response to a call and asking about the completion of 4000 South. Blake Wahlen said the contractor was waiting for the weather to warm up before it laid the asphalt.

Councilwoman Becraft stated that March 2nd would be Read Across America Day. She invited Council members to read at Midland Elementary School. Council members Smith, Tafoya, and Cordova planned to volunteer. Mr. Wahlen said he would confirm the times with those members.

Councilwoman Becraft moved to hold a closed meeting at 6:37 p.m. to discuss pending and imminent litigation. Councilman Tafoya seconded the motion. A roll call vote was taken: Council members Tafoya, Nakayu, Becraft, and Smith voted "aye." The motion carried.

A closed meeting was held in the City Manager's Office from 6:37 to 7:15 p.m. Those in attendance were: Mayor Roger Burnett; Council members Marge Becraft, Alan Nakayu, Tommy Smith, and Dave Tafoya; City Manager Blake Wahlen; City Attorney Chris Davis; and Police Chief Chris Zimmerman.

Councilman Smith moved to adjourn at 7:15 p.m.
