Scott Wilson; Deputy General Counsel Peggy Sidman, Heather Reber, Council
Auditor’s Office, Allison Korman Shelton, Administration, Jeff Clements, John

The Chair convened the
meeting at 1:00 P.M.
Council President Lori Boyer
read the Committee’s charge for the Council year and remarked on suggested
topics that she had put together for consideration as Special Committee topics.
Luis Flores, Chief, Public
Buildings, Public Works Department, explained why the Administration was
requesting emergency passage of an ordinance that would appropriate $177,255
for repair work for Fire Station #4, located at Jefferson and Duval
Street. Mr. Flores described the water
and other structural damage. The
unhealthy air resulted in firefighters being located to another fire
station. There is currently only one
fire station operational for downtown’s fire safety. The repair work will take three months to
repair. The hope is to have the repair
work completed in three months.
