Review of Interlocal Agreement
Dick Zais opened the discussion with the comment that the interlocal agreement is a good
document, but that it is in need up updates and clarification. Mike Leita agreed, adding
• that some of the language is too flexible. Neil McClure stated that sidewalks are an issue.
The Committee then reviewed the Interlocal Agreement on a paragraph by paragraph
basis, comparing and contrasting with the Addendum as necessary. Numerous sections
of the document were noted for further discussion. Staff will furnish a highlighted version
of the agreement for the May 5 meeting.
A discussion ensued regarding public input into the process. The recent stormwater
process was referred to as a good example of everyone working together on a similarly
long and complicated process. It was agreed that a public process would be conducted
prior to amendments being made to the Interlocal Agreement.
