Mayor Klanderud called the special meeting to order at 4:05 p.m. with Councilmembers
Richards, DeVilbiss, Johnson and Torre present.
RESOLUTION #66~ SERIES OF 2005 - Ballot Questions
Mayor Klanderud said this was continued from last week's regular meeting as Council
was told the ARC Advisory Board was not in favor of an outdoor swimming pool as one
of the ballot options. Since then, Council has been told the Advisory Board is
comfortable with the outdoor pool as an option. The Advisory Board is present to make
comments.
Councilman Johnson moved to approve Resolution #66, Series of 2005; seconded by
Councilman DeVilbiss.
Councilwoman Richards asked about amending the language to read "aquatic elements"
rather than an outdoor pool so that voters do not think this will be a large outdoor pool.
Scott Writer, ARC Advisory Board, said the Board was not against an outdoor pool; they
had not had a chance to discuss the ballot language. The Board is unanimously behind
adding outdoor water elements. Debbie Ware, ARC Advisory Board, said the number 1
priority of the public was an outdoor pool. Steve Barwick, city manager, reminded
Council the language needs to be broad enough to be able to do whatever the public
wants after a planning process !'or this element. Council agreed to stay with the language
of outdoor pool.
All in favor, motion carried.
Councilman DeVilbiss moved to go into executive session at 4:25 p.m. for the purpose of
discussing property acquisition, various properties, pursuant to C.R.S. 24-6-402(4)(a);
seconded by Councilman Johnson. All in favor, motion carried.
Councilman DeVilbiss moved to come out of executive session at 5:15 p.m.; seconded by
Councilman Johnson. All in favor, motion carried.
Councilman Torre moved to adjourn at 5:15 p.m.; seconded by Councilman DeVilbiss.
All in favor, motion carried.
