Louisville City Council Meeting <br />July 18, 2000 <br />Page 13 <br /> <br />Brown stated that he agreed with Councilman Sisk's comments and noted that this is a <br />community wide concern. <br /> <br />Davidson asked PSCo to present a more realistic estimate. He concurred that under- <br />grounding power lines is a very expensive project and expressed his doubt that the <br />citizens of Louisville would be willing to support a tax increase to bury a particular <br />power line. He suggested that two questions be put on the ballot, one a special <br />improvement district and the other a general tax. He stated that in the event of a special <br />improvement district, the City should also contribute. He suggested the under-grounding <br />of the power lines begin after the Louisville Reservoir. Davidson supported continuing <br />this matter until the second meeting in September. <br /> <br />Levihn stated that he has the same concerns voiced by other Council members. He <br />requested a detailed cost estimate of the under-grounding of power lines. He supported <br />continuing the matter to allow PSCo and Staff to complete a detailed cost analysis. <br />Levihn also asked about the availability of using school tax to under-ground the power <br />lines. <br /> <br />Mayer suggested that the City budget be critically reviewed for its portion of under- <br />grounding funds and burying of lines be considered a beautification project. <br /> <br />MOTION: Sisk moved that Council continue Resolution No. 42, Series 2000, until the <br />August 15, 2000 meeting, seconded by Mayer. All in favor. <br /> <br />ORDINANCE NO. 1341, SERIES 2000 - AN ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING A <br />PARKING IMPROVEMENT FEE TO ASSIST IN MEETING PARKING NEEDS <br />IN DOWNTOWN LOUISVILLE, AND AMENDING CHAPTER 17.20 OF THE <br />LOUISVILLE MUNICIPAL CODE AND THE LOUISVILLE COMMERICAL <br />DEVELOPMENT DESIGN STANDARDS TO PROVIDE THAT OFF-STREET <br />PARKING REQUIREMENTS FOR DOWNTOWN LOUISVILLE MAY BE <br />SATISFIED IN WHOLE OR PART BY PAYMENT OF A PARKING <br />IMPROVEMENT FEE - 2nd reading - public hearing (advertised in Daily Camera <br />7/03/00) <br /> <br />Davidson called for City Attorney introduction. <br /> <br />City Attorney Sam Light read Ordinance No. 1341, Series 2000. <br /> <br />13 <br /> <br /> <br />
