Szymanski asked if there was some way the city could be released from the liability if something did happen to the water. Williams stated we can provide an agreement with an addendum clause wherein the homeowners would hold the city harmless, but this is not always guaranteed. Hornbostel asked if at some point in time if they want to annex can they annex to someone else if we are providing water? Mayor Fauson stated he felt the agreement would state that. If they were to annex, annexation would go to the provider of water. Sackett moved and Mayor Fauson seconded to authorize city staff to prepare a contract with the intent that the city would be willing to provide a 1" tap and provide a tap fee for outside service rates. By Roll Call Vote the motion passed 5-1, with Davidson voting no. Carnival rejoined the meeting. OTHER Carnival, representing the Finance Committee asked that Phare make a background presentation to Council. Phare said that not included in South Boulder Road Project were street lights. We were hoping that some development would occur before we needed lights. We did discuss with the finance committee to provide funds from the Capital Improvement Program from the fund balance carry over in the amount of $15,000. This would be put together with the $10,000 currently budgeted and allow construction of street lights on standard steel poles on the south of South Boulder Road. At this time we are not recommending street lights on the north side because we still feel there is an opportunity yet that development might occur and the street lights would then be part of the development. It was the Finance Committee recommendation to allow staff to proceed with that and then formally present a budgeted amendment in the future. Davidson asked why are street lights needed 11
