Councilman Leary AUDIENCE COMMENTS Josie Heath Boulder County Commissioner CITY ATTORNEY'S REPORT nRDINANCE #768 - TAX ZBATE 8/17/82 Page -4- Remarked that if the improvements were to be delayed for 2 years, it would not be acceptable; therefore he felt that a time line should be initiated rather than tying them to CO's, and expressed concern. Rupp agreed with his concern and suggested that a specific date be set; if the developer could not meet the date again he would be required to come before council. Mrs. Josie Heath introduced herself to the Mayor and councilmembers and stated she was present as an observer. She wished to men- tion 3 things that were going on in County that would be of interest to the City. First, the County had just approved the parti- cipation on the lower mortgage Housing, which would mean a 10 million dollar bond issue. These will be available in September. Secondly, the County had just approved their solid waste comprehensive plan and a part of that was a reaffirmation of a commitment to no dumping of hazardous waste within Boulder County. Also, some obvious concerns about the landfill and the responsibilites for that. She felt that the County has a partnership responsibility with those close to the landfill and will be impacted by the future development that is necessary. She advised that she would be very open to working with the Louisville City Council with future expansion plans,or the state of it as well as subsequent issues around the landfill. The third was that they were just beginning the County budget process and have about a 4% assessed valuation increase in the County, and one of the things the Commissioners will do is look at what will be done with a possible permanent location in the tri-city area. Mrs. Heath stated she firmly supported a permanent location in Louisville. In fact would support some of the employees of Boulder County move to this location to extend Social Services. Mayor Meier thanked Mrs. Heath for her support and informative report. Attorney Rautenstraus read the ordinance by title only on second reading and advised the amendments were made at the time of first reading.
