September 13 Council Mtg - NEW

Before I get into council items, I hope everyone had some time to pause a moment on September 11th and think about those who lost their lives a decade ago. There are many many children who will never know their father or mother because of the attacks on our soil. Don't let the memory of 9-11 fade into the distance.


City Council agenda items of interest are as follows:

Item #8 - Interim Urgency Ordinance to extend for an additional 10 months and 15 days the temporary prohibition on the permitting of boat docks within areas zoned as recreation districts.
This is to allow time to draft boat dock standards that are consistent throughout. Currently there are no boat dock standards.

Item #9 - Special Event "Monster Massive" Consideration
This is an electronic dance music festival, billed as "America's Largest Halloween Party". The event is to be held October 29, from 4:00 p.m. until 2:00 a.m. Discussion will need to take place about whether the site for the event (the motocross track) can accommodate the anticipated large crowd and if there is enough time to pull together the traffic plan and adequate security. The promoter stated they could expect up to 40,000 people. (yes, that's correct, 40,000).

Item #10 - City Council Vacancy - The City Council will briefly interview the "Final Four" applicants and select one to fill the vacant council seat. The final four are:

Jerry Carlos
Genie Kelley
Rick Morsch
Peter Weber
