Absent: Gordon. ..i•1 A quorum was declared present. 1 ', RESENTATIONS FROM GALLERY: .�x ike Bates , Director of Public -'Wo'rks , introduced two epresentatives from the CH,,M Hill Company, Mr. Walter Shifrin and r. Rick, Fornelli. The CH�22M Hill Company had been contracted to o a study of the Wastewater Treatment Facility. ' A copy of the aster Plan was distributed to the Council and Mr. Shifrin utlined the study areas and reviewed the Master Plan. Mr. Fornelli discussed the findings of the study and outlined the areas needing improvement and costs for recommended improvements. ouncilman Voile asked Mr. Fornelli about a timetable for these mprovemente and the most critical areas to begin. The recommendation was the Treatment Plant was the most critical. here were some corrections that needed to be made in the III Collection System, but most of the critical work needs to be done in the Treatment System. Councilman Scheulen asked Mr. Bates what sources were available for the funding of these projects. Mr. Bates stated there were a number of areas that could be explored, some of them being low interest loans from the government. Mayor Gardner announced that a Citizens Committee would be established to review those recommendations. ### The next topic of discussion was the proposed changes in Levels G and H and reserved parking in the parking garage. There was a time limit set of ten minutes for this portion of the meeting. Mr. Philip Lampert of 2416 Starling Drive addressed the Council regarding the Administrative decision to eliminate reserved parking from Levels G and H in the downtown parking garage. Mr. Lampert stated he had learned of this plan vial the media and that his Councilmen had told him they had not been informed of this decision. Mr. Lampert works for the state and felt the City should be more supportive of an employer with the work force and payroll the size of the State of Missouri. Mr. Lampert felt the Council should have a voice in determining whether or not the reserved parking should be eliminated. He asked the Council reconsider the elimination of these reserved parking spaces. Ms. Christine Mueller of Route 4 belongs to a group called Dynamic Directions, a Quality Circle with the Department of Natural Resources, Division of Energy; but stated she represented all State workers. Ms. Mueller stated they had come up with five suggestions that could be utilized to assist in the interim period while the State builds their parking garage. ,138 : GULARSOUNO v ► t• 1. Do away with 2-hour meters more than 1 block away from High Street. Change these to 10-hour meters. Examples - area up from Jefferson Building cafeteria, Adams Street, 400 block of High Street and up, area on Madison in front of Governor's Mansion (tourists can park in the garage), 300 block of East Capitol past the Baptist Church, areas 2 blocks past High Street on Monroe, Madison and Jefferson Streets. Wouldn't the 98 spaces on top of the garage compensate for the 10-hour meters created on the streets? 2. Enlarge bus routes to include more areas of Jefferson City. We agree more people would take the bus to work if it was available to them. 3. Set up a carpooling lot near the Jefferson Building so that if a person had 4 or more people in his car, he could park for free or a small fee. The Central Bank lot near the Workout building would be an ideal place for this. 4. Create a day-care center near the downtown area with parking available there. Working mothers could drop their children off there and walk the rest of the way to work. Ma. Mueller stated the Quality Circle would like to meet(with the Council to discuss this problem further. rt,:. Mr. Bruce Martin of 111 Pierce Street stated he was also employed with the Department of Natural Resources and that the group Dynamic Directions did not represent all State employees. He just wanted to thank the Council for offering to donate the land to build the parking garage and felt that the responsibility for providing parking to the State employees should be the General Assembly's, not the City's. Councilman Halsey informed Mr. Lampert that the Council had been informed of the decision to eliminate these reserved spaces and that he had personally boon asked his feelings and had concurred with the decision of Administration. Mr. Halsey informed those present that the monies for the proposed parking garage .had boon eliminated from the Governor' s and Office of Administration budget 'for this year and that perhaps they needed to be talking to the General Assembly about the parking problems. Councilman Barniclo also concurred the Council was made aware of the decision to eliminate the parking spaces. He also stated that reserved parking on Levels A and B should also be eliminated and asked that the Transportation Commission consider taking this action. Mr. Barnicle stated he felt the mistake was, made in renting these spaces in the first space and now Administration was trying to correct this mistake. Mr. Barnacle stated he and the Council realized parking was a problem and he would be willing to go to the budget hearings with the State employees to help lobby for the funds for the parking garage.
