following the Council meeting (5:17—5:56)
• No formal direction given
• Staff is currently working through the questions and concerns related to a
transportation fee, after these items have been answered, they will draft resolution(s)
and or ordinance(s)to bring to Council. Committee request updates through-out the
process.
• It was noted that Neenah kept their ordinance broad and left a lot of the decision
making up to the Finance Director. The committee agrees the transportation fee
should be transparent.
• Director Larson estimates an April/May timeframe for completion of the policy.
Pending adoption this would provide citizens direction on how this policy will impact
their initial special assessment notice previously received.
