AUTHORIZATION FOR THE MAYOR TO EXTEND THE NORTHWEST PARKWAY AGREEMENT FOR A PERIOD OF NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE OTHER PARTICIPANTS Davidson stated that the County and the City of Lafayette had requested that the City of Louisville and Broomfield extend the Northwest Parkway Agreement for six months to allow time for negotiations. Davidson moved that Council authorize the Mayor to extend the Northwest Parkway Agreement for six months. Seconded by Howard. All in favor. OTHER REGULAR BUSINESS ITEMS ARISING AFTER PREPARATION OF AGENDA NONE CITY ATTORNEY'S REPORT Susan Griffiths, City Attorney, reported on the opinion of the Boulder District Court invalidating the Boulder Valley School Impact Fee. It found that the County lacked statutory authority to impose a school impact fee. Even if it had that authority, the fee was not a valid regulatory fee. Further, the Court found that the County was preempted by State law from imposing the fee, because of the passage of the Comprehensive School Finance Act. This does not affect the Louisville Use Tax, which is not an impact fee. CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT Bill Simmons, City Administrator, stated that he would be meeting tomorrow with Tom Phare, Dan Blankenship, and the Downtown Business Association to review Phase IV of the Downtown improvements. 12
