AB 11-119 Section 504 Transition Plan
BessieJo Wagner, City Clerk, presented the Council with information regarding the 504
Transition Plan. Mrs. Wagner explained that Transition Plan needed to be adopted by the end of
the year and that the areas that were not in compliance needed to be identified and a plan to
correct the deficiency. It was clarified that the Transition plan was a working document and
would be added to as time progressed. The plan will have priorities and cost estimates. The
priority for FY12 was to identify the signage issues and costs estimates to correct the signage.
Mayor Bailey led the audience in the Pledge of Allegiance at 5:59 p.m.
PUBLIC COMMENT
Mayor Bailey called for public comment at 6:00 p.m.
Steve Binninger — Fogg Lifter — Mr. Binninger stated that he received a letter from code
enforcement stating that his business needed to have their trash enclosed. The letter gave Mr.
Binninger a deadline as to when he needed to have his trash enclosure constructed. He stated that
he had asked code enforcement if all businesses within the City had received the same letter. He
was told that it was generated from a complaint that was received. Mr. Binninger's concern was
that all businesses should be required to comply and that there should be some kind of work shop
to bring all businesses into compliance. He did not think it was fair to only call out a business
that received a complaint when there were many other businesses with the same compliance
issues. Mr. Binninger requested that the Council have a work session to work out a solution and
he also requested a moratorium on enforcement of the issue until a city wide solution could be
determined.
Jean Odmark — Ms. Odmark stated that it had come to her attention that there was a request for a
16 kayak commercial venture in Rotary Park.
Mayor Bailey stated that the Canoe and Kayak Concession was on the agenda later in the
meeting. Council Member Witte asked if the Council would allow public comment during that
agenda item. Mayor Bailey responded that it was not a public hearing and the action by city staff
is to remand it back to the Parks and Recreation Committee. Mayor Bailey stated that the Council
could choose to hear the concession item first. Mayor Bailey stated that the Council had received
many letters concerning the proposed concession and since those letters had not gone to the Parks
and Recreation Advisory Committee prior to their deliberations, it was suggested that the
Council should remand the topic back to the Parks and Recreation Committee for further
consideration.
Council Member Witte stated that some people may still want to make a comment even in the
event the concession proposal was remanded back to the Parks and Recreation Advisory
Committee. Mayor Bailey stated that if anyone had any additional comments that were not in the
letters that were sent in then they could do so during the public comment period. Mayor Bailey

also stated that comments would be received at the Special Parks and Recreation Advisory
Committee Meeting on Monday June 27, 2011.
Michelle with Gravity Sports stated that she was concerned that City Parks were being used for
commercial use. Michelle posed the question as to whether or not City Parks should be available
for commercial gain. She stated that public access to the lake is a key asset that all benefit from.
Michelle stated that previous businesses had tried similar ventures and were denied. She would
like the City to consider the precedent that such a decision would set for the future.
Hearing no further comments, Mayor Bailey closed the public comment 6:15 p.m.
