Mayor Mercer stated the completion of Railroad Avenue to Ray Street is far below other major projects on the Capital Improvement Program priority list and he felt it doubtful this project would be completed within the next fifteen years, therefore, it is not fair to the owners of the property to tie up their property or prevent the sale of it. After discussion, it was moved by Councilmember Kephart, and seconded by Councilmember Wood, instructing staff to write a letter on behalf of the Hansen family relative to their property at 201 Spring Street, that the City does not have any ~mmediate plans for this property and that it is not a project that is included in the Capital Improvement Program for completion within the next three years.

Mr. Charles Stoll, owner of property in the downtown district, presented a development plan and requested Council to consider forming a local improvement district to alleviate parking problems in the downtown area. He stated that he had talked to several property owners and most were in favor of this concept. He advised Council that Mr. Mike Harris has an application for development plan approval before the Planning Commission tomorrow night. He requested that this item be continued until further study of a parking district could be considered. The City Attorney reviewed the process for forming a local improvement district stating that consent of a majority of the property owners is necessary before a parking assessment district could be formed.
