Consideration and Action on Liquor License Application: Roger Burton, “Giant Store #083", 2161 E. Route 66, Series 10 (beer and wine store), New License.
|
|||||
RECOMMENDED ACTION: | |||||
Hold the Public Hearing; absent any valid concerns received from the public hearing, staff recommends the Council forward a recommendation for approval to the State.
|
|||||
Executive Summary: | |||||
The liquor license process begins at the State level and applications are then forwarded to the respective municipality for posting of the property and holding a public hearing, after which the Council recommendation is forwarded back to the State. A Series 10 license allows a retail store to sell beer and wine (no other spirituous liquors), only in the original unbroken package, to be taken away from the premises of the retailer and consumed off the premises. The property has been posted as required, and the Police, Community Development, and Sales Tax divisions have reviewed the application with no concerns noted. |
|||||
Financial Impact: | |||||
There is no budgetary impact to the City of Flagstaff as this is a recommendation to the State. | |||||
Connection to Council Goal and/or Regional Plan: | |||||
Liquor licenses are a regulatory action and there is no Council goal that applies. | |||||
Has There Been Previous Council Decision on This: | |||||
Not applicable. | |||||
Options and Alternatives: | |||||
1) Table the item if additional information or time is needed. 2) Make no recommendation. 3) Forward the application to the State with a recommendation for approval. 4) Forward the application to the State with a recommendation for denial, stating the reasons for such recommendation. |
|||||
Background/History: | |||||
An application for a new Series 10 liquor license was received from Roger Burton for Giant Store #083, 2161 E. Route 66. A background investigation performed by Sgt. Matt Wright of the Flagstaff Police Department resulted in a recommendation for approval. A background investigation performed by Tom Boughner, Code Compliance Manager, resulted in no active code violations being reported. Sales tax and licensing information was reviewed by Andy Wagemaker, Revenue Director, who stated that the business is in compliance with the tax and licensing requirements of the City. |
|||||
Key Considerations: | |||||
Because the application is for a new license, consideration may be given to both the applicant's personal qualifications and the location. The deadline for issuing a recommendation on this application is October 8, 2015. |
|||||
Community Benefits and Considerations: | |||||
This business will contribute to the tax base of the community. We are not aware of any other relevant considerations. | |||||
Community Involvement: | |||||
The application was properly posted on September 2, 2015. No written protests have been received to date. | |||||

Executive Summary: | |||||||||||||
This is a operation and maintenance project to replace an old and obsolete water meter and vault for Little America Hotel. The existing water meter assembly including bypass piping, gate valves, and concrete vault is located in the driveway entrance to the truck refueling station. The existing 8" fire service meter and vault are failing and in need of replacement.

|||||||||||||
Key Considerations: | |||||||||||||
The scope of work includes a new water meter vault and meter for Little America Hotel located at Butler Avenue. The existing water meter assembly including bypass piping, gate valves, and concrete vault is located in the driveway entrance to the truck refueling station. The existing 8" fire service meter and vault are failing and in need of replacement. Construction impacts may include temporary lane closures with traffic flagging but will still allow access to Butler Avenue and Little America Truck stop. There is no impact to the Little America hotel entrance. Extensive coordination with this business owner has been made in advance of this project construction including updating of easements and identifying private utility service lines on-site in the vicinity of this project. Additional coordination with Little America will occur for water meter disconnect and reconnect. |
|||||||||||||
Expanded Financial Considerations: | |||||||||||||
Project expenditures will be funded by the Utilities 2016 Capital Improvement Program project # WW 3165 and innoprise account number 202-08-370-3165-0-4461. | |||||||||||||

Community Involvement: | |||||||||||||
The City has consulted with the property owner to facilitate installation of the new water meter vault and coordinated the installation schedule to minimize impact to hotel operations as much as possible. Construction progress up-dates will be provided to the property owner as well as the community on the progress of this project. | |||||||||||||
Expanded Options and Alternatives: | |||||||||||||
1. Approve the award as recommended. 2. Reject approval of the award. This option would delay the construction start and cause the work to be deferred until spring 2016 and risk potential meter failure and emergency replacement. |

Consideration and Approval of: Consent to Transfer Control of Cable License Agreement | |||||
RECOMMENDED ACTION: | |||||
Consent to Transfer Control of Cable License Agreement from Cequel Corporation to Altice N.V.; and authorize the Mayor to execute the necessary documents.
|
|||||
Executive Summary: | |||||
Flagstaff City Code and the Cable License Agreement between the City and NPG Cable, LLC doing business as Suddenlink requires the City of give prior consent for transfer of control from the parent company Cequel Corporation to the new equity investor Altice N.V. | |||||
Financial Impact: | |||||
No costs to the City are associated with the proposed transfer. | |||||
Connection to Council Goal and/or Regional Plan: | |||||
Provide sustainable and equitable public facilities, services, and infrastructure systems in an efficient and effective manner to serve all population areas and demographics
Foster relationships and maintain economic development commitment to partners |
|||||
Has There Been Previous Council Decision on This: | |||||
Yes. Council approved a transfer of control in November 2012 from the licensee’s parent company Cequel Communications Holdings, LLC to Nespresso Acquisition Corporation (“Nespresso”). Nespresso subsequently changed its corporate name to Cequel Corporation. | |||||
Options and Alternatives: | |||||
a. Approve Consent to Transfer of Control of the Cable Television License from parent company Cequel Corporation to Altice N.V., based upon representations that the Licensee NPG Cable, LLC doing business as Suddenlink will continue to meet the legal, financial and technical qualifications for operating the cable system in the City; or b. Take no action on the application, in which case the application shall be deemed approved; or c. Deny the application, if the City Council finds that transfer of control of the License will adversely affect the Licensee’s abilities to perform. |
|||||
Background/History: | |||||
Cable Television License Agreement On February 5, 2007 the City issued a Cable License Agreement to NPG Cable, Inc. The Cable License Agreement allows the licensee to use the city rights-of-way for maintenance and operation of a cable television system. On February 15, 2011 the City approved transfer to the Cable License Agreement from NPG Cable, Inc. to NPG Cable, LLC doing business as Suddenlink. On or about July 26, 2012 the City received an application for transfer of control of the Cable Television License from Cequel Communications Holdings, LLC (“Cequel”), as parent company of Suddenlink, to Nespresso Acquisition Corporation (“Nespresso”). Suddenlink remained the actual Licensee responsible for operating the cable system in the City of Flagstaff. On or about June 3, 2015 the City received an application for transfer of control of the Cable Television License from parent Cequel Corporation to Altice SA. On or about August 19, 2015 City received clarification that new parent would be Altice N.V. Suddenlink will remain the actual licensee responsible for operation the cable system in the City of Flagstaff. The application is in Form 394 as required by the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”). A copy of Form 394 is on file with the City Clerk’s Office. City staff has reviewed the application. The transaction will result in a substitution of equity investors. Based on the representations contains therein, it appears that the Licensee’s legal, financial and technical operations will not be adversely affected. Licensee’s performance to date is satisfactory. The process for transfer is governed by City Code Section 3-09-002-0009. This section provides that the City shall not grant a transfer unless the new parent accepts the License. The proposed Consent to Transfer of Control requires the new parent and License to affirm Licensee’s performance under the License and Broadband Network Agreement shall not be adversely affected by the transfer. Pursuant to federal regulations, if the City does not act within 120 days from receipt of an application, the application is deemed approved. Although the City Council may simply take no action on the application, formal approval of the transfer provides additional legal protections to the City and the Licensee has advised it seeks formal action. A chart showing change in the Licensee’s corporate relationships since 2007 is attached for convenience. |
|||||
Key Considerations: | |||||
The City’s primary consideration is to ensure the Licensee continues to operate and maintains its cable system in the public rights-of-way in accordance with the License and the City Code. | |||||
Community Benefits and Considerations: | |||||
The community benefits from the continued operation of a cable television business within the City. | |||||

Consideration of the Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA)/Joint Project Agreement (JPA): 15-0005388-I between the City of Flagstaff (City) and the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) for the FY 2016 Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP), Design and Installation of Signs. | |||||
RECOMMENDED ACTION: | |||||
Approve the Intergovernmental Agreement between the City of Flagstaff and Arizona Department of Transportation in the amount of $265,000.00 with a no city matching funds required.
|
|||||
Executive Summary: | |||||
This project replaces signs (parking regulatory signs and bicycle/pedestrian warning signs) which will provide greater safety benefits in accordance with new minimum retroreflectivity Federal mandates. This IGA/JPA is for the installation of approximately 3,000 signs and will be administered by ADOT. To date, there have been three JPA’s approved for this project. The original IGA/JPA was for the inventory of all signs citywide. The second for the design and construction of Phase I and the third was for the design of Phase II. Approving this IGA/JPA will obligate Federal HSIP funding in the amount of $265,000.00 for installation of Phase II. City is responsible for all actual costs exceeding the final bid, any overage, unforeseen conditions or circumstances, compensation for project delays attributable to the City and shall maintain all signage for the life of the equipment. |
|||||
Financial Impact: | |||||
This IGA/JPA will fund the installation of signs in the amount of $265,000. The total cost of the Sign Replacement Plan is estimated to be $894,000.00 and will be paid for from HSIP funds. The federal share is funded at $894,000.00 (100%). | |||||
Connection to Council Goal and/or Regional Plan: | |||||
Regional Plan Goal PF.2. Provide sustainable and equitable public facilities, services, and infrastructure systems in an efficient and effective manner to serve all population areas and demographics. |
|||||
Has There Been Previous Council Decision on This: | |||||
Yes – Original IGA/JPA for FY 2010 HSIP funds awarded on July 20, 2010 in the amount of $175,000.00 with an Amendment One on June 10, 2011 for an additional $50,000.00. An IGA/JPA was approved in November 2013 for design and construction of Phase I for $300,000.00. The design for Phase II was approved on June 8, 2015 for $36,891.00. | |||||
Options and Alternatives: | |||||
Approve the IGA/JPA as presented. This IGA/JPA will authorize the funds for the project up to the maximum available. Upgraded signs will achieve greater safety by maintaining to minimum federal reflectivity standards. Provide direction for revisions and future Council consideration Reject the IGA/JPA. This will not obligate the additional funding and City would have to reimburse FHWA for any cost already spent on Phase II. |
|||||
Background/History: | |||||
The purpose of the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) is to achieve a significant reduction in traffic fatalities and serious injuries on public roads. This is to be accomplished through the development and implementation of the Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP), which is a statewide-coordinated safety plan that provides a comprehensive framework for reducing highway fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads. SHSP is intended to identify the state’s key safety needs and guide HSIP investment decisions. Funding is from the U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration through the Arizona Department of Transportation which is responsible for administering the HSIP in Arizona. | |||||
Key Considerations: | |||||
The 2010-11 IGA/JPA entered into between the City and ADOT developed a video log and inventory of all the signs within the City. As part of the sign inventory a Sign Replacement Plan was developed that separated the regulatory, warning and guide signs into replacement phases. This IGA/JPA is the second phase and will replace parking regulatory signs and bicycle/pedestrian warning signs. The HSIP funds must have an approved IGA/JPA to be obligated by ADOT. Any funding not obligated by the City or County in the FMPO Region within this fiscal year is returned to ADOT. |
|||||
Expanded Financial Considerations: | |||||
The sign replacement funding per fiscal year are in the following amounts: FY 2014 - $300,000 FY 2016 - $297,000 FY 2018 - $297,000 |
|||||
Community Benefits and Considerations: | |||||
Provide additional safety and reduced maintenance cost. |
|||||
Community Involvement: | |||||
Inform Although there has been no formal public involvement process, this project has been approved by the Flagstaff Metropolitan Planning Organization for inclusion in the Transportation Improvement Program. |

Executive Summary: | |||||
This Agreement allows for the use of a Public Defender to represent indigent clients for all court settings, including but not limited to pre-trial conferences, evidentiary hearings, motions in limine, trials, sentencing, change of plea hearings, and revocation of probation hearings. In addition, the Public Defender shall attend all court settings arising out of Appeals and Special Actions on Flagstaff Municipal Court decisions. The appointed Public Defender shall be responsible for providing personal consultation with clients prior to pre-trial conferences when requested or otherwise appropriate and for interviews of all witnesses. The Public Defender is required to maintain personal contact with the defendant until the case is terminated and is required to use reasonable diligence in notifying a defendant of official court actions resulting from defendant’s nonappearance at a scheduled court session.

|||||
Financial Impact: | |||||
The Municipal Court has budgeted $170,000 for fiscal year 2016 in expense account 001-01-016-0060-1-4205 (Legal Fees).

Options and Alternatives: | |||||
Option 1: Fund the microwave network purchase and build. Option 2: Renew the fiber lease with Suddenlink for a 5 year term at an increased cost. |
|||||
Background/History: | |||||
In 2007, the City entered into a 10 year contract with NPG Cable for a fiber network. NPG Cable was subsequently purchased by Suddenlink Communications. The contract with Suddenlink is approaching its termination in early 2017. This microwave network will replace the fiber network currently leased from Suddenlink. There will be a one-time expense for the design and build plus a small increase in the annual rental of space on Niles' Mount Elden radio tower on which the microwave dishes will be mounted. Depending on the final cost, the return on investment is approximately 7.5 years, possibly less. Once built, the City will own the microwave network along with the privately licensed microwave frequency obtained from the FCC. Niles Radio will maintain the microwave network up to the point where it connects into a City facility, which parallels the maintenance Suddenlink has provided on the leased fiber network. |
|||||
Key Considerations: | |||||
Microwave technology has been in existence for quite a while and has proven to be a very reliable source for network communication. We have had a microwave link to the landfill for approximately three years without an issue. Additionally, the City's Lake Mary Water Treatment Plant and the Wildcat facility are already connected to City Hall via microwave, all via Niles' radio towers. The network, once built, can be easily expanded as needed (for example, when the new public works yard and new courthouse are built) and can be a viable city-owned network for the foreseeable future. The design will include redundant rings to allow for failover should a link fail. The City is not obligated to proceed with purchase of equipment (the primary cost) until final design is completed. A proposed telecommunications tower on McMillan Mesa is a key link for the microwave network. Final design is contingent upon zoning approval and the height approved (which may be less than the 100' proposed). If final design is not satisfactory to the City, the project may be halted or new design could be explored. |
|||||
Expanded Financial Considerations: | |||||
The City currently expends $60,000.00 annually to lease fiber to 20 remote City sites and including two separate redundant links into City Hall. The proposal from Suddenlink to renew the City's contract with them increased that amount to $86,400.00 annually plus a one-time expense of $7,200.00 in equipment replacement costs. It included a reduction in throughput from the current 100mbs to 20mbs. If the microwave network build costs the maximum amount of $650,000.00, and that's divided by the $86,400.00 annual cost of the proposed Suddenlink lease, the result is approximately a 7.5 year cost recovery after which the city begins to realize an ongoing savings of $54,000.00 (at the current rate) or $80,400.00 (at the renewal rate) after accounting for the $6,000.00 increase in tower rental fees for the microwave system. Niles Radio has a cooperative purchase contract with the State of Arizona for microwave equipment and related services. This is a competitively bid contract with discounted rates on manufacturer's equipment. Nlles Radio was selected to provide professional services (microwave design, acquisition of FCC licenses) because of its experience and qualifications, and ownership of connecting link sites. The contract for professional services describes overall project and budget, and includes Exhibits A, B, and C (attachments below). City Staff views the project as a cost efficient "sole source" procurement for the reasons explained in the attached document. |
|||||
Community Involvement: | |||||
The Contract for Professional Services includes a conceptual design for the microwave network. During the first phase, "Phase PZ", Niles Radio wlll be applying for a conditional use permit to replace the current City-owned 62' telecommunications tower on McMillan Mesa with a proposed 100' tower. This will go through the standard review process and allows public comment. Zoning approvals will be required for other network sites, but nominal changes (such as adding a dish to an existing tower) will not involve public comment as part of the approval process. |

Previous Council Decision on This: | |||||
The City Council adopted a Resolution of Intent to modify water, wastewater, reclaimed water and stormwater at the August 25, 2015 meeting. | |||||
Options and Alternatives: | |||||
Council has the option to choose not to implement any rate modifications. | |||||
Background/History: | |||||
The City desires rates and fees that fully fund operations, maintenance, present and future capital costs for plant improvements as well as distribution and collection systems capacity, infrastructure rehabilitation, replacements and expansion. The City is facing several challenges to continuing its high-quality operations. Utility revenues are not keeping pace with increasing operational and capital costs. Growth and approved development has necessitated the need to procure additional water supply through the drilling of new wells. Utility infrastructure is aging and requires replacement and rehabilitation. The rate and fee study considers many factors that impact the cost of providing water,wastewater, reclaimed water and stormwater services. Among these factors are; requirement to maintain sufficient revenue to cover the City's debt service costs, the cost of operations, including employee and energy costs, the cost of future projects to maintain service reliability, the cost of panned infrastructure maintenance and expansion. The rate and fee financial study guides the rate evaluation and provide recommendations on changes to the current utility rate and fee structures to meet these challenges. Willdan Financial Services was retained by the City to conduct a Utilities Rate Study for the City's water, wastewater, reclaimed waler and stormwater utilities. Willdan gathered the background budget information, financial records, billing data and other relevant information prior to their analysis. A fair and equitable cost based system of rates and charges were then developed which are projected to provide sufficient revenue for each utility evaluated. The results of their analysis ad final report will be presented. The City Water Commission has met on six occasions over the past nine months reviewing the proposed rates. The water commission made recommendations for council to adopt rate options as identified in the July 16, 2015 Water Commission meeting. The final rate study analysis have been available online and on file with the City Clerk effective August 1, 2015. They will have been available for review and comment for more than 30 days prior to the October 6th public hearing and ordinance consideration |
|||||
Key Considerations: | |||||
Several objectives were identified during the rate study to guide decisions regarding the proposed financial plans and rate structures.The major objectives of the study were;
Utilities is one division, with four separate financial funds. Services provided by the City are funded by money collected from rate payers for those services. The City of Flagstaff Utilities Department receives no funding from property taxes. Money collected from the wastewater rate payers may be used only to fund wastewater services and money collected from water ratepayers may be used only to fund water services. Transfer of money between these funds is prohibited except as payment for services provided. Comparison of Flagstaff rates with other Arizona cities will be provided in the staff presentation. |
|||||
Expanded Financial Considerations: | |||||
The City is recognizing the need to establish an on-going capital improvement program to replace and rehabilitate water and sewer pipelines that have reached the end of their useful life. The proposed rates will establish a capital improvement program that is financially capable of replacing 2 miles of waterline and 1 mile of sewer line during each fiscal year. The increased water and sewer capacity fees reflect the value of extra capacity in the systems an the anticipated cost of new facilities that will be attributed to growth for the next ten years.The increased capacity fees will add to the cost of development. Water, Wastewater, Reclaimed Water and Stormwater user fees will be phased in over a 5 year period. The new rates would take effect on January 1 of each year beginning in the year 2016. The new capacity fees would go into effect in January 1, 2016. |
|||||
Community Benefits and Considerations: | |||||
Regular rate reviews and modifications are necessary to maintain stable financial position for the water, wastewater, reclaimed water and stormwater funds. The goal of the proposed rate increase is to provide for a financially sound and sustainable utility system. | |||||
Community Involvement: | |||||
Inform Consult Involve Collaborate The Water Commission held meetings to discuss the rates, capacity and service fees on 1/15/2015, 2/19/15, 4/16/15, 5/21/15, 6/18/15 and 7/16/15. The Water Commission held an informational Public Hearing meeting on 6/15/15. This meeting was videotaped and is available for review on the City website. The Water Commission has considered numerous options during the spring prior to making their final recommendation to Council in July16 2015. Meetings have been held with numerous outside public stakeholder groups including Chamber of Commerce, Northern Arizona University, largest 15 customers of the Utility, Northern Arizona Home Builders Association, Northern Arizona Realtors, Lions Club, and many other neighborhood civic groups. A public hearing notice was advertised in the 8/1/15 and 8/7/5 Arizona Daily Sun notifying customers of the proposed rate adjustment. being considered by the City. |
|||||
Expanded Options and Alternatives: | |||||
An alternative would be to choose not to implement any rate modifications. The ramifications of such action would be to reduce and eliminate capital improvements projects and upgrades for the utility system. This option would be to further delay Capital improvement such as pipe and treatment plant replacement projects. Consequently the Utilities Division would require larger increases in the future to catch up. Another option would be to phase in rate increases over a longer period of time. This may be done in many different was (length of time between rate increases). This is another option that is open to the City Council. |

Has There Been Previous Council Decision on This: | |||||
On June 7, 2011, Council adopted Resolution 2011-22 in support of the preservation of Picture Canyon. On April 3, 2012, Council adopted Resolution 2012-12 to reclassify Picture Canyon for conservation purposes. On October 16, 2012, Council adopted Ordinance 2012-16 authorizing the purchase of Picture Canyon. On July 15, 2014, Council adopted Resolution 2014-29 in support of dedicating two trails in Picture Canyon Natural and Cultural Preserve the “Tom Moody Trail” and “Don Weaver Trail”. On April 7, 2015, Council adopted Resolution 2016-09 in support of applying for $74,446 of Recreation Trails Program grant funds to fund trail system improvement projects at Picture Canyon. |
|||||
Options and Alternatives: | |||||
Option A – Adopt Resolution No. 2015-34 as submitted and authorize adoption of the Picture Canyon Management Plan. Option B – Do not adopt Resolution No. 2015-34 and do not authorize adoption of the Picture Canyon Management Plan. |
|||||
Background/History: | |||||
As critical wildlife habitat and a popular recreation corridor, Picture Canyon is a natural and cultural amenity for the northern Arizona community. Efforts to formally protect Picture Canyon started decades ago. A milestone was achieved in April 2012 when the Flagstaff City Council approved the application to acquire Picture Canyon for conservation purposes through the Growing Smarter Grant process with Resolution 2012-12. As part of the acquisition process, a conservation easement was granted to Arizona State Parks which specifically outlines construction, access, and development limitations at the Preserve. Additionally, the acquisition process requires that a management plan be in place to guide management activities and projects at the Preserve. | |||||
Key Considerations: | |||||
Given that Picture Canyon Natural and Cultural Preserve is a very complex property with extensive cultural resources, Rio de Flag watershed implications, and sensitive wildlife habitat areas, there are various management requirements and considerations associated with managing the property and remaining compliant within local, state, and federal regulations. The Management Plan identifies specific management considerations and action items to improve the Preserve, while remaining within the legal parameters of the Arizona State Parks conservation easement. The Plan identifies five management goals for the Preserve: - Maintain, protect, and restore watershed health, including the Rio de Flag and associated wetland zones. - Maintain and protect diverse and healthy wildlife populations. - Protect all cultural resources present. - Provide opportunities for public use. - Maintain and develop partnerships that facilitate resource management and protection. |
|||||
Expanded Financial Considerations: | |||||
This decision has no financial impact on the City. Action items identified in the Plan are necessary to support and maintain compliance with the Conservation Easement. Action items will be funded by a variety of sources including the Sustainability Program Open Space authorized budget, the Recreational Trails Program grant, and volunteer assistance. |
|||||
Community Benefits and Considerations: | |||||
Having an exhaustive management plan for Picture Canyon will allow staff to quickly address community concerns at the Preserve because appropriate processes will be place. Specific chapters outline processes to improve public access, treat invasive species, and enhance forest health and public safety by treating forest resources. These actions and processes directly benefit the Flagstaff community by reducing the risk of catastrophic wildfire and the spread of invasive species to adjacent properties. The action items included in the Picture Canyon Management Plan, including improving the trail system at Picture Canyon by constructing and maintaining trails, naturalizing roads, and installing trail markers and educational signs, will help protect cultural resources and improve visitor experiences at Picture Canyon. Additionally, these projects will provide an opportunity for members of the Flagstaff community to learn about geology, ecology, hydrology, and archaeology while engaging in outdoor recreation. Well-constructed trails benefit the community by providing opportunities for outdoor recreation within their neighborwoods. |
|||||
Community Involvement: | |||||
Collaborate - Staff worked with many community partners to develop the Picture Canyon Management Plan, including natural and cultural resource management experts from Arizona Game and Fish Department, State Historic Preservation Office, Museum of Northern Arizona, Flagstaff Fire Department, Coconino National Forest, Arizona State Parks, Arizona State Museum, and affiliated tribes. Experts from these agencies drafted entire chapters of the Plan while also reviewing and editing subsequent drafts until content was complete. Collaborating with experts from community partners ensures that best available science and management practices are included in the Plan. On August 27, 2015, the City of Flagstaff Open Spaces Commission unanimously voted to recommend the Picture Canyon Management Plan for adoption by Council. On September 16, 2015, the Heritage Preservation Commission reviewed the Plan and had no questions or comments. |
|||||
Expanded Options and Alternatives: | |||||
Option A – Adopt Resolution No. 2015-34 as submitted and authorize adoption of the Picture Canyon Management Plan. This option allows staff to implement collaborative processes for managing the Preserve using best available science and management practices. Option B – Do not adopt Resolution No. 2015-34 and do not authorize adoption of the Picture Canyon Management Plan. This option would result in staff continuing to conduct management efforts at the Preserve without the guidance of a management plan. |
