TREASURER'S REPORT Treasurer Stokes was not present. Ms. Groenevelt said that she will clarify all questions the committee has with the Treasurer. Chairman Fereday stated that the cash carry forward revenue needs a budget note showing the different funds the cash is coming from to make that total and he asked for clarification of the history on the professional services line. Chairman Fereday stated that the projected total cash balance of $90,000 shows the committee is solvent. 4. FY12 MRA BUDGET WORK SESSION Member Bailey had submitted his suggestions for the 2012 MRA budget. He included two suggestions for possible future projects. The first is to pave Fir Street to Roosevelt and the second is site work for the boat launch area. Chairman Fereday asked Mr. Coyle what was included in the site work needed at the boat launch area. Mr. Coyle said it was concrete and asphalt work at the ramp and sidewalks. There was concern as to what work would be done for the proposed cost of $180,300 for site work. Ms. Groenevelt stated that Nathan Cleaver of Keller Associates would be attending the next MRA meeting and that he and Mr. Bailey could clarify the work this would include. Mr. Coyle said they were going to look at moving the volleyball court as it has become a safety issue being located next to the boat launch area. There was discussion as to possibly applying for a grant from the State Waterways to help with these projects. Ms. Groenevelt said that the projects could be grouped together and then apply for a grant in the FY13 funding cycle. Nathan Stewart, City Engineer, joined the meeting. Discussion ensued as to the proposed budget amounts to be included in the legal posting for the public hearing on September 20, 2011. McCall Urban Renewal Agency August 16, 2011 Minutes Member Youde moved to publish the proposed budget for the September 20, 2011 public hearing as: $600,000 Revenue, property taxes $ 85,000 Cash carry forward $685,000 Projected Expenditures $476,000 Bond payment $ 11,800 Other expenditures $ 20,000 Professional Services $507,800 $177,200 Balance Member Swanson seconded the motion. The motion carried. 5. GRANITE NAME PAVERS UPDATE Chairman Fereday asked Dennis Coyle for an update on the granite name pavers. Mr. Coyle said that he finally heard from the granite supplier last Friday. They told him that they would get the order written up for his signature and then get an invoice to him. Chairman Fereday asked what the invoice total is. Mr. Coyle he said he believed it was $5,000 or $6,000. Ms. Groenevelt said she thought it was closer to $4,000. Chairman Fereday agreed and said that was including installation. The pavers will be placed along the lakeside of the walkway at Legacy Park. There are sixteen pavers. Chairman Fereday said that the invoice amount should be no more than $5,000 and if Mr. Coyle does not feel comfortable with it, this can be postponed until next year as the pavers probably would not be set until next Spring. 6. 2010 IMPROVEMENT PROJECT UPDATE Chairman Fereday stated that this update will be postponed until the next MRA meeting as Nathan Cleaver will be in attendance. Mr. Stewart said that a final walk through was done last week. He said there was significant discussion with Dave Peugh and Jay Craig from Franz Witte regarding how to manage the warranty period because there are a significant number of plants that are dying. There is a one year warranty on the plant material and as the plants are replaced, there would be a one year warranty on each new plant. It was agreed there will be a very detailed explanation of the warranty in the final acceptance of the project. 7.
