Rules F: App (5-2) Committee
meeting on 2/20/15 At
9 a.m. APPROVE 5-1 (CM
Bishop) There was a lengthy discussion on this item. At the outset, Council Member Bill Bishop announced that he
would be voting ‘no’ on the measure and explained his qualms. Council Member Warren Jones indicated that
he was supportive of the measure arguing that further delays in enacting the
legislation would result in costing the taxpayers additional money. He also cited a morale issue that the
impasse had created. Mr. Jones asked
the Mayor’s Chief of Staff, Chris Hand, to comment on the various issues,
fiscal questions, in particular. The City Treasurer, Joey Greive, fielded questions and
explained how he viewed the changes made in the proposed legislation. Council Member Stephen Joost explained why he favored
passage of the proposed measure, characterizing it as a sustainable
plan. The alternative, he felt, would
be a lengthy, costly battle in the courts. Council Member John Crescimbeni explained his position as
a dilemma. He offered an amendment that
would change the number of years that the City would not impose on pension
benefits on current employees from ten to three years. The amendment failed on a 3-3 vote. |

At the invitation of the Committee
Chair, Public Works Director Jim Robinson made a presentation updating the Committee
on Southbank Riverwalk issues such as the width of the benches and the width of
the riverwalk itself. The Committee
Chair, Council Member Don Redman, had a number of concerns, feeling that the
current width of the riverwalk was not what he saw in the plans that he
reviewed at the Haskell Company before the project got underway. Mr. Redman felt that the current width of the
riverwalk was inadequate and a safety concern for pedestrians and bicyclists.
In a summary statement, Mr. Robinson
said that the width in the design of the riverwalk had not changed since the
project was announced in 2011. He
discussed, at length, design and bulkhead issues. Mr. Robinson explained, in detail, the
design-build process. In response to
Council Member Redman’s concerns, Mr. Robinson announced that adjustments to
the riverwalk benches would be made prior to next week’s official opening of
the Southbank Riverwalk. (The opening
date is tentative).
Mr. Robinson engaged in an exchange
with Council Member John Crescimbeni on the width issue. Mr. Crescimbeni had questions for Mr. Chris
Flagg and a Haskell Company representative, as well, on the Southbank Riverwalk
design and the design of the benches.
There being no further business, the
meeting was adjourned at 3:08 P.M.
