The following items of the Consent Agenda were presented: ,`Consent IAgenda The Minutes of the Council Meetings for April 15th and 21st. II The following Minutes of the Public Works and Planning Committee were presented: l "The meeting of the Public Works and Planning Committee was called o� to order by Chairman Dick Crader. Other members of the Committee I present were Councilman Vincent Borgmeyer and Councilman Mike Prenger. 1 1. The first item on the agenda was the extension of St . II Mary's Boulevard, the curb and gutter project from Helsingor Road. II Mike Bates, Director of Public Works, gave background information I, Public on the project. Mr. 0. Edwin Courtney representing Modern Business ? Works and Systems presented the basic argument for his firm and stated that 11 Planning they would like to do whatever is possible to get the street Minutes extended past their office. Mr. Courtney felt that their original , request in 1975 to have the street extended up to their property 1' was for the same reasons as that request to date--that is the desire! to have an improved street and to help ease the traffic situation due to the volume of their business. He informed the Committee thaq in 1975 Modern Business had offered to pay their portion and were I informed that they were required to have 51% majority of property owners' agreement. This past year Modern Business Systems bought I another parcel of land and then explained that they now owned 51% ' and wished the street brought out farther. Now they are told the 1 requirements may be something different. I 1 1 1 1 9 0 ., Regular Council Meeting, May 5 , 1980. — --- rtirales explained in the past the Council has based their approval Consent . for the improvement on a request from property owners with more thad Agenda 50% of the front footage of the improvement. Mr. Bates further _ explained that the City can proceed with the Resolution for improve- ment without a petition. After the Resolution is published then a time limit is provided for protest; if no written objection is registered, the project would be in effect . After further discussion and clarification, Councilman Borgmeyer moved that the curb and gutter be extended the length requested at the discretion of the Public Works Department at the $5.00 per front foot rate to 'take care of Modern Business System' s request. Councilman Prenger ;seconded the motion. Motion passed. 2. The second item brought before the Committee was the Public Swimming Pool Ordinance, introduced to the Committee by Tom Benton Works who gave an explanation that the "Draft" copy which was handed out and to the Committee and those in the gallery did not show the correc- Planning : tions agreed to by the staff in Planning and Code Enforcement and Minutes !the Motel Association and Apartment Association . He further , ,explained that Mr. Graham did not apparently receive his copy of thei changes but had his secretary type the Ordinance in the proper format. lie then proceeded to give the changes as agreed to by the parties concerned. He then went on to the section which referred to a $25. 00 annual fee for inspections. Mr. Eric West spoke for the Apartment Association and Mr. Jim McNeely from the Motel 1 'Association spoke for those hotels and motels in Jefferson City who are affected by this Ordinance. They felt the fee was not in order , 1 as it would be an "unfair added expense" and that private pool 4 i ii ,owners would be getting the inspections and same services from the ' City without a fee. Also, they feel that , if a pool gets chemically Ombalanced, they already have the extra expense of having it broughtl back into balance or by draining the pool and starting over again. 'The Commiteee agreed to strike that particular paragraph with reference to the $25. 00 fee with the understanding that if in the 1 future the City was incurring too much expense, the Ordinance would, of course, be amended. When the Ordinance was finally changed to ,reflect the wishes of both Associations and the Planning and Code , Consent Enforcement , as well as the Committee, Councilman Prenger made the Agenda following motion : "I move the swimming pool ordinance be approved as sot forth by Mr. Benton , with reference to the changes as listed in Section A9-31 A. 4 to read % . . residuals and pit values shall . . . ' ; by II ' ' striking subparagraph 5. of the Name sect ion with reference to an L accessible phone; by amending the maximum chlorine to 2. 0 P.P. M. in 1 [Section 19-31 B. L. ; by deleting the first sentence of Paragraph C in Section 10-32 referring to authority of Planning and Code Direc- tor; by adding subparagraphs under Paragraph C in Section 19-32 with' :reference to family pools; by changing the last sentence in Section 49-33 A. to read ' A fee based on cost of construction shall be Public assessed for each building permit issued. ' ; by completely deleting Works 'paragraph B of Section 19-33 with regard to the annual $25. 00 fee. " ' and r. Planning After a second by Councilman Borgmeyer, the motion passed. 1 Minutes 3. The next item up for discussion was the vacation of property 'along Swifts Highway. Gary Spencer, a member of the Church Growth t'Fommittee at Capital City Christian Church, appeared explaining thati1 the Committee had been studying the feasibility of staying at the 11 Oresent site or moving to another area. Due to growth of the Church, expansion is a necessity. They prefer to stay at the I present site and propose tobuild in two phases, the second of which 4111 involve the construction of an auditorium that will seat about 1 4t, thousand people. This structure will be located between the 11 'existing Church building and the City street. The easement line 11 'does not follow the curve of the roadway; it runs straight through It and across the valley. If the Church could obtain this small por- Consent !tion of ground between their present property line and the roadway Agendaeasement , around 50 feet, perhaps the Church could go ahead with thep :construction in the future without encroaching on the City right-ofl way . After several questions about parking facilities, whether or i unot Planning and Zoning would consider the large auditorium an II III acceptable use, etc. , Mr. Bates suggested that the Church Growth ! Committee appear before the Board of Adjustment and ask for a 1 variance. After discussing the matter in more detail, it was II I Idecided to hold the matter over until the next Committee meeting in 11 lorder to give the Church Growth Committee a chance to appear before ! 1 the Board of Adjustment if they so desire and to also give more time I i t3')() , L` w__�.__._, .....__.__ __ _ Regular Council Meeting MaSa.980. _ .•.'au.. ��:.._�t�...r. ._..r _�.,.....,_L...a..........t..._.... ..... a _ ...a,. u_. a ....a... for more detailed study of the project. Department of Public Works ; will contact the Church Growth Committee with regard to the settingkonsent of our next meeting. ; Agenda 4. The fourth item was the review of a petition from East- wood-Brookdale area for bus service. Margie Andrews, 218 Brookdale, stated that around 90 signatures from those interested in having bud; service were on the petition. People who signed were interested in riding to work to conserve fuel as well as those whose children wish to ride to school. Numerous duplex areas and building in the subdivision would would provide more persons who would most probably utilize the service if it were available. Marty Brose, Assistant Director of Public Works, presented a map of the proposed bus route and explained the technicalities of establishing a route and a time 'schedule in accordance with the number of people to be served. (Several alternate routes and time schedules were suggested by ;`.;. Committee members and those from the gallery. Mr. Brose suggested that the matter be studied from the standpoints mentioned. Mrs. Andrews then asked approximately how long before the study would :' Public yield any results as far as actually getting a bus running. Mr. '- Works Brose explained that they would like to do something as soon as , and possible, but it takes time to get the details. Mr. Bates then 1 Planning stated to the members of the Committee that hopefully by the time ,' Minutes school starts in August something may be accomplished. Councilman Crader advised those from the Eastwood-Brookdale area that the matter will be taken under study and they will be notified as soon as something concrete is decided. 5. The Preliminary Overlay and Slurry Program review was next' on the meeting agenda. Mr. Bates stated the review was to let the Committee know approximately what dollar amounts are involved. He added that through the "Pot Hole" Bill , Senate Bill 109, the City will receive approximately $138,000 that was not anticipated to be spent strictly for road or bridge improvement. Mr. Bates is asking ' that this money be earmarked for the street improvements and is asking the Committee to endorse this. The lists presented are preliminary but this wiligivo the Committee an idea of what is involved in this program. Councilman Borgmeyer moved that wo approve the lists of the Overlay and Slurry Program submitted by the Department of Public Works. Councilman Prenger seconded the motion. Motion passed. 6. Itom number six was a request to Vacate Southern Air right-of-way. Earlier in the meeting, before leaving, Mr. Benton stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission had a roplat of that j area referred to thorn. He further explained that about half-a- Consent dozen residents of the neighborhood appeared at the meeting all in Agenda favor of this change. Mr. Bates handed out a map and explained the right-of-way to be vacated would be Southern Air from Eastern Air to the intersection of Western Air. He explained that Southern Air and Western Air will be "tied together" and based on the developer's commitment in that regard, the preliminary plat was approved. It appears that all people in that area are in agreement on the proposed replat. Public Works, as stated by Mr. Bates, has no objection in that regard. Councilman Borgmeyer moved to approve the request to vacate Southern Air right-of-way. After a second by Prenger, the motion passed. 7. The next item discussed was a status report on Nicks Homestead Sanitary Sewers and a recommendation regarding the retai ing of a consulting firm. Public Works was requesting the consul- tant to assist in the design of the pump station and they took the liberty, this Committee being under no obligation, of taking a scope of work and sending it to the local consultants and asked them Public submit a proposal. After reviewing the consultants and talking Works with each firm, Public Works recommends Groner & Picker, Inc. and Councilman Borgmeyer moved that Groner & Picker, Inc. be approved Planning as the consulting firm for this project , and the Committee further Minutes recommends that a flat fee of $1300. 00 be assessed per serviceable lot on all projects under progress this year.

'' Lincoln University said they would not give us the easement ; they is will trade as before ( like property for like property) . John Boessen, the man who farms the airport property, has boon trying to sell his property. He has had it listed with a realtor, however the time has lapsed and we are in discussion with him at present . He will need an option from us if he is to hold the property. We are dealing with four owners for easements; Mr . bill , Mr. Vaughn , ', Mr. Boessen and Lincoln University. We forsee no problem in pur- chasing the land from Mr. Boessen (roughly 95 acres) , however, we only have an approximate of $20, 000 left in the program. Last wook �i Mr.Taylor paid a visit to the FAA officials in Kansas City to see Consent if we could obtain additional money to finish the project . It was ;i Agenda suggested by the FAA that we cancel the present project and make a I new application to purchase all the clear zones. It is necessary 1 for us to have free title to the land or Air Navigation Easements. We still must talk to Mr. Vaughn and go to Washington, MO to talk with Mr. Hill to find out if he will give us the easement or how much it would cost to buy his property. We need to make an agree- ment with Mr. Boessen on how much we need for an option to hold the land and then return to the FAA. It will be at least three months before we would know about the money--it will be at 90/10 and we will need two appraisals.

After discussion it was ja ikgreed that one of the conditions for granting the operating permit 'f would be that each glider has a good operating two-way transmitter- 'receiver. Airport During a discussion on essential air service Mr. Taylor told j Commission the Commission one of the problems in obtaining better air service Minutes 'is the fact the newer commuters do not have enough operating money ,± to allow them to operate for a year during a slack getting started . season. Also, gasoline is a big problem as the cost is too high for a small commuter to operate even if it is obtainable. If Ozark goes: out on strike as indicated we are going to have a sorry situation for air service. It is time now to get out and talk to mono carriers; in Illinois and Wisconsin to see if we can interest someone in coming in here and giving us good substantial air service. Bill Ward of New Jeff City Flying Service told the commission they were now receiving up to 70% of their fuel allocation and it `looked promising for them to be up to 100% by the first of the month.; Councilman Kliegel told the commission he has felt badly about ,being unable to attend the last few commission meetings due to •conflicts with his executive board meetings.

Richter in support of . the proposition by the Historical Society and other interested parties. Old Mayor then, for the record, re-stated his position on the Old Jail Jail . He explained that he did not favor the restoration or Discussion operation of the building out of City tax funds unless it was put to some City use. Mayor believes that whether it is the Historical Society, or they and other interested groups, if the City has no use for the building, and the space, the should be afforded an opportunity to see their interest to fruition. He says that , then, • in general concept he has always supported the preservation of the building. Mayor then opened the floor to questions by the Council to III Mr. Dave Brydon of the Historical Society or to debate and discuss the issue. ..Pc',.:,;' -:{»:. v >. ..; r.. ,_,-, 3,;'„, -t .:-i•:'Z"�-5 rtx,r,- .,.., ,. ..r... _. , , .,i: t. ,ti- Regular Council Meeting, May 5 , 1980.

The other point to be %�. 4, discussed is whether the City would be willing to, although not ' spending tax money, allow staff , support , guidance, if they apply 'c ! for a Grant. Councilman Kliegel asked if it is true that the City ;; Old Jail must apply on behalf of the Historical Society for the Grant . ' Discussion - 1Mr. Brydon stated that the Historical Society would not have the ' authority to apply for a grant to restore a building they neither } own or had any control over and the City would have to make the i! japplication on their behalf . After further detailed discussion , a motion was made by jHequembourg that the City agree to leave the Jail at its present ;location for twelve months and in that time give the Historical Society the opportunity to raise $100, 000 and that a plan for the " renovation be submitted the City for approval and the City cooperate • jin applying for a grant for State or Federal.
