A. 2:45:29 PM Information Needed by Council Staff
1. Columbus Court PUB Rezone
At the November 22nd Council meeting, the Council set the date of December 6th to hold a public hearing on the Columbus Court PUD rezone. Unfortunately, adequate advertising (14 days) was not provided in time to hold the public hearing on December 6th. In order to meet these requirements, the public hearing will need to be moved to Tuesday, December 13th. This item will now appear on the consent section of the December 6th agenda to set the public hearing date for December 13.
Does the Council have any objections to the change in the public hearing date?
No Council Members had objections.
Might the Council be willing to consider voting the same night?
Councilmember Love said they could decide on December 13, 2011.

3. Legislative Breakfast
Legislative session is approaching, begins on Monday, January 23, 2012. The Mayor is available on the following two dates/times for the legislative breakfast.

Which date/time works best for Council Members?
The Gallivan Center is being explored as the place for the legislative breakfast. Once location is confirmed, Council will be notified.
The Administration is interested in any legislative topics the Council would like to have discussed at the Legislative Breakfast. Please let Council Staff know.
Council Members Love and Simonsen said they were available on Monday, January 9, 2012. Councilmember Love asked that Council staff ask the Legislative team if the breakfast was the best way to accomplish the goal.
4. 2:51:50 PM CIP Process Timeline
The Administration would like to begin the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) application process as soon as possible. Typically, this process begins in the Fall of each year. Because the Capital Facilities Plan was being considered this year, the Administration delayed the process while the Council addressed the proposed 10-year Capital Facilities Plan. It is likely the Plan will be finalized in early 2012.
CIP Process Timeline
45 Day Application Solicitation – Estimated January 31, 2012
2 Weeks Application Review, organization & log development by Staff – Estimated February 17, 2012
10 Weeks Application Review & Prioritization by CDCIP Board – Estimated April 27, 2012
2 Weeks Presentation to Mayor and Mayor’s Prioritization (Depending on his schedule) – Completed by May 1, 2012
1 Week Prepare log for Council with Mayor’s Recommendations – Completed by May 1, 2012
Given the CIP process timeline, would the Council be comfortable giving the Administration the green light to begin the CIP process prior to approval of the 10-year CFP?
Councilmember Love asked if anyone objected to the Administration begin the acceptance process without the adoption of the 10 year plan. No one objected.
