school district is requesting additional funds to install the poured epoxy floor in <br />combination with carpet for the aisles. Committing an additional $10,000 would result in <br />a total of $636,000 for projects within Louisville. He stated that the Finance Committee <br />concurs and would recommend that Council authorize the additional expenditure of <br />funds. <br /> <br />Mayer asked for clarification that the total amount collected from the use tax is enough to <br />fund all the projects. <br /> <br />Simmons replied that the City anticipates the total collected by the end of the year to be <br />sufficient to fund these projects. He stated that $639,000 is the projection for the use tax. <br /> <br />Mayer expressed support for this expenditure, however, he suggested that some of the <br />monies collected by the City next year be reserved for the underpass at South Boulder <br />Road. He stated that this would provide a safe route to Coal Creek Elementary for <br />students from north Louisville. <br /> <br />Mayer moved that Council support the changes outlined by the City Administrator for a <br />poured epoxy floor at the Louisville Middle School, seconded by Keany. <br /> <br />Howard asked for clarification that the total of $636,000 includes a contingency. He <br />explained that this would allow for the improvements to be funded, even if there were <br />contingency issues. <br /> <br />Simmons replied that there is no contingency, per se, however, there is a contingency <br />included in the Louisville Elementary School gymnasium. He explained that the City's <br />contribution would be limited to the amount specified for the Particular project. <br /> <br />Roll call was taken. Motion passed by a 5-0 vote, with Levihn abstaining and Sisk being <br />absent. <br /> <br />Simmons stated that the closing on the Warembourg property took place on Monday, <br />August 16. He explained that the land is not yet open to the public as the City will need to <br />determine, along with the County, what the best uses of the property will be for a short <br />term and a long term basis. He displayed the first draft of a City of Louisville map <br />showing the Warembourg, Trillium and Boulder County Land Venture properties as <br />jointly owned properties. He stated that the City of Broomfield closed on land for the <br />Northwest Parkway on August 9, 1999. <br /> <br />Mayer asked whether the City of Broomfield has procured the sixty acre parcel for open <br />space that they were required to under the Northwest Parkway Intergovernmental <br />Agreement. <br /> <br />Simmons replied he was uncertain whether the City of Broomfield has. <br /> <br /> <br />
