ACCEPTANCE OF MINUTES A motion was made by Ed Honea, seconded by Tom Clark and carried unanimously to approve the minutes of Regular Council Meeting of March 21, 1995 and Special Joint Meeting March 21, 1995. VII. PETITIONS AND COMMENTS George Alexander, 14575 N. Luckett Rd. Marana~ AZ: Addressed Council regarding the High School Rodeo this past weekend in Marana, appreciates the help received from the Town. There was a full page article in the paper about the rodeo. The cooperation between the Chamber and the School District was unbelievable. The Marana High School had over 10% of the student body involved in the project. Tom Clark: This weekend down at the park there was 92 cars parked in and around the area. Had to stop once for a child darting across the road. Need to alleviate the parking at the park, it is a tragedy waiting to happen if something isn't done. VIII. ANNOUNCEMENTS None IX. GENERAL ORDER OF BUSINESS A. Presentation to Dave Brewer for his service on the Planning and Zonin~r Commission. Mayor Ham stated that Mr. Dave Brewer could not be here tonight to accept the certificate. Would like to have Chairman Abbett come forward and accept the certificate in Mr. Brewer's absence. The Town appreciated his services to the Community. Wheeler Abbett: Accepted the certificate and will make sure it is given to Mr. Brewer. B. Discussion of the Counties proposed alternative disposal methodology for Non- Hazardous Liquid Waste by combining existing Green Waste disposal activities at the Pima County Ina Road facility with non-hazardous liquid waste~ and compos~'in~ same~ and the Discontinuation of Acceptance of Non-Hazardous Liquid Waste at the Tangerine Landfill. Suzanne Shields~ Director of Solid Waste~ Pima County: Talked about what is being worked on at Tangerine and Ina Road facilities. Was before Council some months ago and talked about the final cell construction at Tangerine Road, Cell 2C. That will be the final cell that goes in at Tangerine Road. In order to accommodate that construction, we will have to further excavate and stock pile materials. As part of the construction, after July 1, 1995, we will no longer be receiving non-hazardous materials or regulated asbestos at Tangerine Road. Once that construction begins, it will begin in the fall for the liner, we need to do the excavation earlier on. Plans are to end the acceptance of non-hazardous waste. Which she knows is something the Town has been looking for. Wants to stress that the presentation on Ina Rd and the discussion of what can be done with the non-hazardous waste after that has nothing to do with keeping it open or not open at Tangerine, it will be closed as of July 1, 1995. The other facility, Ina Rd. Landfill, brought a display. Sometime in 1995 1996, Pima County Wastewater intends to move their existing outfall line. Have been looking for options to utilize Ina Rd. The service area was filled with 800,000 tires at one time. At this point, the tires coming in are equal to the tires going out. The tire stockpile is gone. This is also the area where green waste as well as clearing and grubbing is handled. There is a great deal of vegetation waste that comes when you are clearing off and developing a new area. The facility receives around 600 tons of green waste per month, at Ina Rd. Has been looking at ways to reuse this waste. Magma Cooper has been using ground green waste as part of an effort to do some revegetation tailings. Talked to TEP and Arizona Portland Cement about using some of the ground green waste as fuel. Looking also at composting. In 1993 did a small demonstration composting plot program at Tangerine. Wanted to see if the non-hazardous liquid waste in with green waste or municipal waste or other things and do the composting without a problem and to meet all Federal and State requirements. It proved successful, but it's not the kind of project that you jump into. We need to look at the composting of green waste only. It has nothing to do with composting the municipal solid waste, it's only to look at the liquid waste and the green waste received. The compost would be mixed with some other materials and with ground green waste, which is basically mulch, and begin revegetation. Ina Rd. is one area being looked at for the composting. Even if the composting is not done, we will probably continue to do the grinding, in which case it will not be as good a material, but even grading in the ground mulch will help the soils retain moisture, and hopefully help in the revegetation. The final phase would be to work with Pima County Parks and Recreation in the linear park construction. If something significant would be put in, then also improvements along Ina Rd., for better access both in and out. This is a very preliminary proposal, it has not gone to the Board of Supervisors. We are looking at all facilities in terms of what is the best use for them and how can we, in the most cost effective manner, close them all and revegetate them. 2 Ed Honea: Asked Ms. Shields whether she is aware that the Town has an Ordinance that does not allow composting. Suzanne Shields: Yes if you do not use it on your own property. Ed Honea: Would all the composting be used on the property itsel£ Suzanne Shields: At this point, she is not sure how much would end up being used on site or not. Again it's not sure that this site would be used. The preference is to be near one of the treatment plants for the effluent water. Being a desert we need some moisture to keep the composting process going. Ed Honea: With the composting you would use liquid waste, non-hazard, grease, oil types. Suzanne Shields: Stated yes. Rd Honea: Those facilities have a very bad smell and draw a lot of flies and things. Had an opportunity to go to California last year and look at some green waste compost. It was really an undesirable situation. Why would the County even consider composting if the Town has an Ordinance against it. Suzanne Shields: Have tried this process at Tangerine. The people on Council at the time came out and there was not an odor problem, it is a specific process. We are trying to look at a way to handle the green waste that's already coming in. And then to look toward trying to revegetate and close out the facility. It will save about $3 million if we can compost and create our own soil for a two foot soil cap and revegetate. We understand that it is controversial and that's why we came to the Town. It would be required that the contractor meet all State, Federal and Local requirements. We have no desire to create a nuisance, whether in the County or in the Town of Marana. It would be very tightly controlled. Herb Kai: Has Pima County looked at any other remote locations. We have Continental Ranch to the Northwest, a major shopping area to the East. Are there any other locations that could be used further away from populated areas. Suzanne Shields: We've been looking at remote areas for the regional landfill, looked at existing sites. Wanted to use an existing landfill because then we could use some of the material on site. If we went to a remote place that had not been utilized previously, we would have to put in ground ~vater wells, which are already in place in this area. We felt it was in a commercial area, next to the waste water treatment plant, and so it would not be that much of an incompatible land use. Again this is a proposal, we are not saying we are going to do it right here. Not sure if Council is aware of it, but the Groundskeeper has a compost program that's going on right at Roger Road. Arizona Compost, near Pantano Wash, is running a compost program and they use our ground green waste. Sticking with just green waste, compost is easier to manage and handle it. Asking the Council to look at this proposal and consider it. Would also be interested in any other comments on anything else we intend to do with the site. Herb Kal: Has concerns as far as the odors and flies. John Kal: At the Roger Road composting that the Groundskeeper is doing, they're just taking the green waste and grinding it and adding water. Hears that goes very well, but when you add the greases to it, the odor is hard to get rid of. Seems like there would be other sites within the County that would work out better. Takes along time for the composting piles to breakdown. We could find some other site that would be away from people. 3 Brad DeSpain: Do you have to have an aquifer protection permit. Suzanne Shields: Yes they would have to have a permit. One reason why this is desirable instead of another location is because we already have the ground water monitoring in place. Brad DeSpain: What impact do you project it will have on the groundwater. Suzanne Shields: We would intend to put a liner underneath it. We do not expect any impact on the ground water. It would be required by State and Federal programs, the design itself, that there would not be an impact, the aquifer monitoring is a precautionary type of measure. Brad DeSpain: Concerning odors, what did you use in your test pilot program to contain odors. Suzanne Shields: The process that the company, Earthcare, they have in most composting a special mixture that they use. In our search, they were the only composting company that dealt with grease, which was our concern. We have looked at a treatment plant for the grease. We have looked at Rita Road and it would cost about $1.5 million to construct. Earthcare does a lot of grease composting at Chicken processing plants and it is very impressive because it doesn't smell. They rely on the bacteria and the composting technique to keep the odors down. Brad DeSpain: Did they use an inoculator in the process. Suzanne Shields: yes a special formula of bacteria that eats the grease and controls the oils and odors. Brad DeSpain: Asked whether any public meetings will be held regarding this issue. Suzanne Shields: Yes, this is the first step. It hasn't even gone before the Board of Supervisors, it may never go before them. We wanted to bring it in front of the Town and begin discussion. Brad DeSpain: What is the long range plan. Suzanne Shields: If we got into a contract, it would be essentially a minimum of a year to three years. If it was a problem and there was non performance of contract, they would be shut down immediately. Because it would be with an outside firm, the contract would have to set time limits. Brad DeSpain: You plan to contract with some body to do this for you. Suzanne Shields: Yes, with Earthcare. Brad DeSpain: Does that shed any different light on the Town Ordinance. This will be answered by Dan Hochuli after Mr. DeSpain has finished his questions. Asked Ms. Shields where this composting material will be used. Suzanne Shields: We want to initially use it to landscape both here and we need to close County Transfer Station area. Also to close off the existing cells at Sahuarita. Those would be the primary areas during this three year time period. Brad DeSpain: Do you plan to include any sludge or combine any sludge with the grease. 4 Suzanne Shields: No. Brad DeSpain: On the pilot program was sludge included. Suzanne Shields: We did test the sludge and we did test the municipal solid waste and the green waste. We wanted to see the worst work case conditions. Trying to permit something including sludge becomes very difficult. Brad DeSpain: If not Ina Road, where is the County going to go with non-hazardous liquid waste. Suzanne Shields: Would like to give it back to Wastewater. Dan Hochuli: You kept referring to this as green waste. If understands it correct, this is a combination of green waste, effluent and non-hazardous liquid waste. Suzanne Shields: Yes, that is correct. Green waste would be the solid part. Dan Hochuli: Though she said earlier that it would be used only to vegetate on site. Yes he thought he just heard her say that it would be used to revegetate other areas. Suzanne Shields: If it's successful yes, other areas. Ina Rd. itself, the area we are talking about is 100 acres. If this program did prove to be successful, we might move it somewhere else. The process is very simple, it is very close to farming, you till it, and the grinder and the tiller can both be moved. It is very likely that we would just pick it up and move it from site to site. Dan Hochuli: Is the purpose of this to get rid of waste or to revegetate a landfill. Suzanne Shields: Trying to optimize what she is doing. There is the question, can you sell the compost. We need to close off this landfill, if nothing else works we would be saving about $3 million in soil by doing this process. Dan Hochuli: Understands then that it hasn't been tried out and tested, so you're going to give it a shot in Marana. Suzanne Shields: It hasn't been tried out and tested as far as a market in Arizona. It's been permitted in several areas, it is an actual process. Earthcare sells their compost through WalMart. Their compost and process has been tested by the EPA, and proved to be very successful. Dan Hochuli: Still confused, is the compost from this site going to be sold or just used on this site to revegetate. Suzanne Shields: At this point no. What we want to do is be able to revegetate. This is a pilot program, it's no even going to use all the green waste that we will have. We want to test out a program and see if we can use it. If it's truly successful, then it could be sold elsewhere. Knows the Town of Marana does not want to set up these kinds of businesses. So we tried to adapt this for this site. If it was some place like Roger Rd, which is not inside Marana, it might be done differently. If it was out in a remote area, we might include municipal solid waste. Tried to put together a balance for this location in the Town's Ordinance. Dan Hochuli: This site, the compost from this site, is it going to be sold or is it all going to stay right here. Every time he asks this question Ms. Shields says it's a pilot program and trying different sites. When you're all done, you got this stuff, are you going to leave it there 5 or put it in bags and sell it. Suzanne Shields: We're going to till it in and revegetate it here. Dan Hochuli: If its works, you said that then you are going to use it elsewhere. Do you mean use the compost elsewhere or use the process elsewhere. Suzanne Shields: We may use the process elsewhere. Dan Hochuli: He's not interested in the process, he's interested in the compost. If you are going to use the process elsewhere, unless it's in Marana, he is not interested. Talking about the compost. If it's successful, are we going to keep the operation going and use the compost elsewhere. Suzanne Shields: If it's successful, we're going to keep the process and program going. Whether we keep it going here is another question. We could keep it here and work out something with the Town of Marana, if it proved to be acceptable to the Town. Have asked County Attorneys to look at the Town's Ordinance on composting. It could be that this is a beneficial use, and there could be some benefits to the Town of Marana. We are trying to looks at site where we have a lot of what we would need to construct. That's one reason why we have looked here. Marcia King: The success of the program, what constitutes success. Suzanne Shields: Success of the program would be that when it is composting it is not a nuisance. That the final product meets Class A composting requirements from the State and Federal standards. And that we have been able to find a local market. There have been compost programs in other states that have failed. Not because of the process but because they couldn't do anything with it. Understands that the Town does not want composting. We are looking at master planning Ina Rd.. Without the composfing do you have any other input that she can use in developing the master plan for Ina Rd. Ed Honea: The finished product of the composting is not the problem as far as he is concerned. Once the bacteria has gone through the process the finished product is a dry product. It is virtually harmless, it is the process, not the beginning or end product. Wouldn't mind if it was processed somewhere else and the finished product was brought back and put in the ground here. It is very close to the Continental Ranch Business Park, which is a very fast growing part of Town commercially. Doesn't think that unless Council changed the Ordinance that it would even be allowed. Tom Clark: Once there was enough compost at Tangerine Rd., how long was it before the compost was usable. Suzanne Shields: At that time it was fall, it took about three months. It was a fairly short duration project. Tom Clark: That compost, did it have any of the greases and stuff mixed in with it. Suzanne Shields: Yes it did have the greases mixed in with it. Tom Clark: Earthcare, are they the only ones in the Country that does this or will this be bid out by the County. Suzanne Shields: It originally was bid out as a request for proposal based on qualifications. They were the only ones that had a process that worked on grease. Which is what we were interested in. 6 MI~TES OF REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING rows CO jNClL Tom Clark: Could some of those companies, like Magma and others, would those numbers be available as to how it's working out for them. Suzanne Shields: Yes. Magma never took any compost. But could give Council numbers of people who have used it so you could see what it was like. Tom Clark: He would like to receive that information. Wheeler Abbett, 7505 W. Mountain Sky Dr.: The area Ms. Shields is talking of is basically on the outskirts of the annexed area. This area will build up, there are other office buildings that will be built next to Trico and the Holiday and so forth. This area has already been contaminated, the Sportspark's water has already been contaminated. What does Marana get out of this. And why is it a couple of years ago the Town of Marana went to referendum to tell Waste Management they did not want them here, when Waste Management was going to give us a $100,000 + per month. Why in the name of God would we go into this kind of a routine now. Why would we even think about this. Mayor Harn: Stated that she went out and inspected what's happening at Tangerine. Admits that she was very impressed with the process that was going on there. But at the time, the people there advised me there was no way they could use all of the liquid non- hazardous waste in that project. Only a very small portion of that waste could be used on that project. What would you do with the other waste, would you put that at the Ina Rd. Would you hold it until it was used. Suzanne Shields: We have taken some steps to reduce the amount of liquid waste we are receiving. Partially by raising fees also by beginning to require manifests. The amount of liquid waste we have been receiving has decreased by half. They could not use all of it at that time because it was a small program. Dan Hochuli: On July 1 you are going to stop taking liquid waste at Tangerine, is that correct. Suzanne Shields: That's correct. Dan Hochuli: As of July 2nd where is that liquid waste going to go. Suzanne Shields: We've made recommendations that it go to the Roger Road facility. Dan Hochuli: Asked what will happen to it there. Suzanne Shields: It would be digested and used in the Roger Road treatment plant. Dan Hochuli: So you are expecting that to be some type of interim measure until you figure out whether you are going to use it, the liquid waste here or some where else. Is that right. Suzanne Shields: The preference of waste water is not to have to deal with it. Dan Hochuli: Are there hopes that this would be up and running by July 1, 1995. Suzanne Shields: It would be very difficult to get it up and running by then. We would have to go through the permitting process. Dan Hochuli: Does Earthcare say that the process you are recommending, this compost, is not going to create flies. Suzanne Shields: That's what the process is suppose to provide. We have checked out 7 other locations and that seems to be accurate. That's what they claim and that's what they developed the process for. Dan Hochuli: Judging from what he has heard at the Council meeting, if those are the major concerns about the operation, would you foresee a problem with Earthcare giving some type of guarantee to the County. And the County giving a guarantee to Marana. That the smell, flies, rodents and some of the other problems would not occur at the site. Suzanne Shields: We have been talking with them about having some sort of performance bond that's fairly typical, where you need to have some money available in case there were something that went wrong. Dan Hochuli: To mitigate the damages. In other words if this turned out to be a horribly smelly project they would need a large enough bond that the County could do whatever they needed to do to pull the compost out of there or fix the problem correct. Suzanne Shields: Yes. Dan Hochuli: and if the County gets that sort of performance bond, then as far as you know the County would be willing to pass that along to Marana. Suzanne Shields: We would want to work with the Community to find out what they think about it. Ed Honea: What is the length of time of the process and where would be the closest major sites that Staff or a Town Official could observe this in operation. Would like to see a full fledged operation in effect. Suzanne Shields: The company is from Arkansas, most of their clients have been in Arkansas. Don't know any others that are in the Southwest, will check to find the closest. The length of the process was taking three months here, depends on temperatures. Ed Honea: How often do they turn wind rows. Suzanne Shields: They are turned on a regular basis, daily, they are turned very slowly. John Kai: How does the City of Tucson handled their grease. Suzanne Shields: They take it to Tangerine. The City of Tucson landfills only handle municipal solid waste. We handle all the special wastes. Mayor Harn: Several years ago Pima County came before us and said they needed to store a little bit of liquid hazardous waste at Tangerine, and it would just be temporary. We have called them several times and asked for a definition of temporary. It's difficult when County comes before Council to believe that the County is credible in what is being presented. Not her personally. Thanked Ms. Shields for coming out tonight. Mayor Harn informed Council that she inadvertently forgot to introduce Boy Scout Troop 223, which is here tonight with their leader, Rob Ring. The boys are here tonight to earn their badges in several areas. Welcomed the Troop. C. Weed Control Contract - Proposed roadway bar ditches that will be contracted out for the control of weeds in the Town Limits of Marana. Bob Kern: Stated that it is very hard to keep up with the weeds. Thought he would go out and get some proposals on what it would cost, doesn't have all the information yet. Feels it is a lot more cost effective to contract the work out. 8 Ed Honea: Were you checking the costs for immediate response as well. Thinks it is needed all over Town. Bob Kern: Did budget some money for landscaping. He has used some of that on Ina and Thornydale already. Herb Kal: We need to get this problem addressed immediately. Should also make sure that who ever does the work has the proper insurance needed. Ed Honea: If there is a budget problem with money, maybe some money could be used from the contingency or something like that. The weeds are worse than normal and something should be done. After a complete bid is received will it come back to Council. Bob Kern: With Council's permission he would like to just take care of the matter. He has enough money to take care of it. D. Reading of Proposed Amendments to Section 09.04.02 of the Personno! Policies~ changing the automobile reimbursement from $.24 per mile to the IRS allowable rate. Discussion only. Marcia King: This is suggesting, instead of changing the allowable reimbursement per mile every time the IRS changes it, the Town simply allows for language that would permit the change so the IRS allowable rate would be substituted for that. Dan Hochuli: Noticed in the Council packet there is a mileage reimbursement log that Mr. Cuaron wants to make part of the Personnel Policies Manual. Mr. Hochuli has redrafted Resolution 95-08, adopting that form into it, gave it to Council. The redraft has two changes, it adds the form which is attached as Exhibit A, and also added the severance clause. This clause provides that if part of this Ordinance is held invalid by some Court some day, the rest of the Ordinance stays in effect. E. Adoption of Procedural Guidelines for the conducting of Town Council Meeting and Subcommittee meetings. Rescinding Ordinance No. 90.33 and approving Orai~ce No. 95.07 and Resolution No. 95-20. Dan Hochuli: Included in Council's packet tonight is draft//3 of the Policies and Procedures, which includes a couple of changes that Mr. Davis asked Mr. Hochuli to make. There is also a memo in the packet explaining the changes. Betty Horrigan: Stated that the Committee worked real hard on this project. Ed Honea: Thought is was very well done. Some of the times limit guidelines for submittal to agendas could be detrimental so some of things being dealt with. One of the positives has been reasonably quick access to the Council. By changing some of these procedures, time limits, thinks there is going to be times that important information needs to be handled. Betty Horrigan: The reason this was done is so the Town Staff has time to prepare the packets and can be given to Councilmembers in a timely manner. We are tabling issues already because there is not enough time or facts to study some issues. Packets will be out on Wednesdays, and Council will have more time to study issues. There are provisions made for important things, if three Councilmembers want to get it on the agenda, it can be done. Dan Hochuli: The Committees has not defined what an emergency was, but except for emergency items can be placed on the agenda 20 days prior to the meeting, which backs it up. But there is an exception to that, an emergency is defined by the Town Manager, or could add Mayor. Would suggest adding or Mayor. So that those two Town officials have the ability to put things on the agenda out side the guidelines. The Council packet material 9 must be submitted to the Town Manager 12 days prior to the meeting. That is another item that allows a waiver, it says these deadlines may be waived for any particular item by the Mayor or Town Clerk, only if it is determined impossible to meet the deadline. That is another change that the Town Manager requested, it should be changed to the Mayor or Town Manager, not Town Clerk. Tom Clark: If we choose to accepts these policies and procedures or not. If we choose to accept them we need to take into account that the Committee discussed this and worked hard with the Committee members. Mayor Harn: One problem that Staff has is that not all of the material in the packet is prepared by Staff, or in house. A lot of the information has to be gathered from outside sources, and sometimes that can be fairly difficult. The Committee was working on when it gets to close to a deadline and Staff may not be able to get that information, that we need to be able to pull that from the agenda. Tom Clark: We need to let outside sources who bring material to us know about the new policies and procedures. Ed Honea: Another item of concern is except that in an emergency which is determined by the Town Manager. Doesn't think we should be in a position where an elected official would have a Staff official tell them they can't put something on the agenda. Thinks there is a problem there. It should say that it be determined by the Town Manager, Mayor or presiding on Council officer, if the Mayor is absent. Has a problem with elected official having to go to Administrative officials to put something on the agenda. It's a Council meeting, we need to add Mayor or presiding officer. Dan Hochuli: That is covered on the next page, section 4, subsection 1. Talks about presiding officer meetings and it says if the Mayor is away it will be the Vice Mayor and if the Vice Mayor is also away it will be some one else. And at the bottom of that section, the last sentence, the word Mayor is use in these Policies and Procedures, shall mean the presiding officer of the meeting as set forth in this paragraph. Originally anyone who wanted something placed on the agenda made a request to a member of the Agenda Committee, which is the Mayor, Town Manager, Town Attorney and the Town Clerk. As a result of discussion we decided that the chain of command would dictate that a Staff member would not be able to ask the Mayor or another Staff member to put something on the agenda. They would need to go through a chain of command. So if an employee of the Town wants something on the agenda, they would ask the Town Manager. If a member of the public or a member of the Council wants something on the agenda, they can ask anybody on the Committee. Tom Clark: At the last meeting Councilmember Clark mentioned that new members will be joining Council. But this is not set in stone and there will be opportunities for new Councilmembers to have input on the Policies and Procedures. Concerned that new Councilmembers are able to go through this and possibly make changes. Ed Honea: Agrees with Councilmember Clark, although if the new Councilmembers decide that they are not satisfied, it could be amended. If we make a motion do we have to rescind the original Ordinance, is that correct, would it be one motion or two separate motions. Dan I-Iochuli: We have an existing Ordinance, 90.33, Ordinance No. 95.07 would rescind Ordinance No. 90.33. They are the same except for some changes that needed to be made in the Policies and Procedures. Resolution No. 95-20 adopts the Policies and Procedures. Mr. Hochuli is proposing that they be adopted by Resolution and not Ordinance, it is easier to change them and they carry a different wait. Those can be made in one motion, or separate to adopt the Resolution and the Ordinance. 10 Dick Kelly: Mode a comment regarding an Ordinance vs. Resolution on this subject. Dan Hochuli: Resolution No. 95-20, adopts the Policies and Procedures. Ordinance No. 95- 07 replaces Ordinance No. 90.33. The Ordinances sets the dates for regular Council meetings, the procedures for the Special Council Meetings and something we did in the Policies, Ordinance No. 90.33 said that four Council Members were required to call a Special Council Meeting. The Policies and Procedures being adopted by Resolution say three members can call a Special Meeting. The Policies and Procedures will stand on their own adopted by Resolution. But an Ordinance is stronger than a Resolution, so if we have Policies and Procedures that say three Councilmembers can call a Special Meeting, we still have an Ordinance that says it takes four, the Ordinance would over rule the Resolution and would still require four members. A motion was made by Ed Honea, seconded by Betty Horrigan and carried, with Mayor Harn, Councilmembers Ed Honea, Betty Horrigan and Tom Clark voting yes and Councilmember Herb Kai voting no to rescind Ordinance No. 90.33 and approve Ordinance No. 95.07 and Resolution No. 95-20 with the following changes: Add Mayor to Page 2 Number 2, where it says except where an emergency is determined by the Town Manager or Mayor. And on Page 2, number 3, changing Town Clerk to Town Manager. F. Mayor's Report Mayor Harn stated that she has talked to Hurvie Davis, he is starting to feel better. His doctor has recommended that he get up and move around. He is at home and is doing pretty good. Also the Mayor is continuing to meet with Brad DeSpain and working on trying to set up appointments with the three County Supervisors that were not at the meeting on Flood Control on March 21, 1995. Appreciates Staff's extra effort while Mr. Davis is out of the office. Manager's Report None X. FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS Tom Clark brought up the sandwich board signs on Ina Road, is receiving a lot of tack over the signs. Mayor Harn asked whether Tom Clark would also like the parking problem at the Town park put on a future agenda as well. He stated he wouldn't mind. XI. ADJOURNMENT A motion was made by Tom Clark, seconded by Betty Horrigan and carried unanimously to adjourn. TIME: 8:55 P.M.
