General Items
Executive Review
Resolution - Resolution Of The City Council Approving An Application For Special
Review For A Business To Be Called "The Board Of Trade" Authorizing The Onsite
Sale And Consumption Of Alcohol On -Premises, Within An Existing Structure Located
At 117 %2 East Main Street, City Of Laurel
This special review is to put the Board of Trade back into the same place it was originally.
Council had no questions.
2. Resolution - A Resolution Of The City Council Authorizing The Mayor To Execute
Amendment 1 And Amendment 2 To The Original Task Order Previously Approved By
City Council Via Resolution R 23-81 For The Project Known As The 5th - 7th Sewer
Line Replacement With KLJ Engineering, LLC.
Council questioned if this was the task order amendment that Ryan with KLJ had spoken about
at the last Council Workshop. It was clarified that it was. The Mayor had signed Amendment 1
by accident, so this resolution is to approve both amendments.
It was questioned if there were any changes to numbers originally presented to Council a few
weeks ago. It was clarified that no numbers had changed.
3. Resolution - A Resolution Of The City Council Authorizing The Mayor To Execute An
Independent Contractor Service Contract With Red Ridge Construction.
This small service contract is to place two concrete pads at the Container Site. There are big
holes, and people are tripping and stumbling when trying to empty out their pickups. Doing two
this year will allow for the third to remain open while the work is being completed.
It was questioned if this work will be done this fall or if it will wait until the spring. It was
clarified that the goal is to have the work completed within the next three weeks.
Council Issues
4. Discussion - Food Trucks
Mayor Waggoner read the following statement from Janel Alison, owner of The Cracked Egg.
"My only concern was the proximity of said trucks to Brick -and -Mortar restaurants. Also, their
presence in intersections or unsafe areas."
The Planning Director has not had a chance to work on this item yet.
Council noted that they could see limiting street parking for food trucks. However, they did not
think they would be able to address the proximity of a food truck to a brick -and -mortar business.
Other Items
This Friday at 10 a.m., there will be a Ceremony at the Canyon Creek Battle Field.
Saturday at 11 a.m., there will be a Celebration of Life for Kaj, the owner of Crazy Taco, in the
parking lot by the baseball field.
The next Park Board meeting is Thursday at 5:30 p.m. in Council Chambers.
The next Tree Board meeting is Thursday at 4:30 p.m. in the Council Conference Room.
