City Council Budget Retreat Meeting Minutes July 12 & August 2, 2018 Page 7 of 13 Councilmember Maloney asked if for #13 Coyote Run Slope Mitigation if we need a place holder for that in 2019. City Manager Balser stated the plan is to complete the project in 2018. Mayor Pro Tem Lipton suggested a plan for the meeting: do not review the utility CIPs tonight but take them to the Utility Committee to be reviewed individually. He suggested the Recreation/Golf/Memory Square CIPs be reviewed by Rec Advisory Board before Council discussion. Members agreed to this plan. Council started discussion where it left off on July 12 on CIP page #88. Page #89 Median Landscape Renovation — Councilmember Loo stated she thought this wasn't to be a wholesale redo of medians. Councilmember Maloney asked if design and construction can't be done together. He feels the annual maintenance costs that are listed are much too low. Councilmember Stolzmann stated that when a detailed plan for the medians is ready it needs to come back to Council for more input. Councilmember Loo noted PPLAB will also need to weigh in. Mayor Pro Tem Lipton noted staff needs to be more accurate in the annual operating costs for all of the CIP sheets. Page #91 — Councilmember Stolzmann stated at a Louisville Superior Joint Issues Committee meeting they discussed possibly doing a public -private partnership (P3) for sports fields and does that idea affect this. City Manager Balser stated these are current needs and any P3 may take a while to implement. Mayor Muckle left at 6:23 pm. Page #102 Historical Museum Visitor Center Design City Manager Balser stated this is based on the conversations of Council earlier this year. Councilmember Maloney asked if the HPF can contribute to this. Director Zuccaro stated it wouldn't likely fall under operations money but possible under HPF grants. Councilmember Stolzmann stated she thought the last round of design was to get enough detail for fund raising, and this seems to be for more than that. We should hold off until we get the results of a ballot question or the fund raising campaign. We can add it in to the budget later on if we want to. We should make it clear we are hoping to get ballot money or fund raising money to pay for this rather than pay this outright from the CIP. Councilmember Maloney would like that foot noted. Councilmember Loo asked if this includesrenovations of existing buildings. We should be able to take care of what we have and that should be separated out from the design of the new building.
