Wita, may we please stand  for the pledge of allegiance? I pledge allegiance to the flag of the  United States of America and to the republic   for which it stands, one nation under God,  indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. City Manager Lee. Thank you, Mayor. Um, we'll  start off with August 26th preview. Right now,   there's no one scheduled on the public agenda.  Um, really the core of this meeting has to do   with uh page three. You have um three separate  actions related to the budget. The first uh is   your revenue neutral rate hearing for the SMID  and uh asking you to approve exceeding the RNR   for the SMID. Uh representative from downtown  development will be there to talk about how they   propose using their additional money for a safe  and clean initiative in the downtown. Second item   is approving the revenue neutral exceeding the  revenue neutral rate for the proposed 2026 budget.   And then the last action is the approval of  the proposed 2026 budget uh and the 2026 2035   CIP as discussed during the July 15th, August  7th, and August 14th council meetings. Um I   will say before council member Tuttle can say  it, I believe we had one item that may need   to be considered separately. the approval  of the WSU levy. Yes. So, we just need to   pull it from that item when it's time to vote.  If you'd like to have say that would be pulled between and that is because council  member Tuttle works for WSU Tech. Um,   but I do want to make sure that um, since I'm  a WSU Tech board member, I don't get paid. So,   that would not be me. Okay. Thank you. So,  that's all I have on that page. On the next page,   we have one council member trip. Nothing else  on that page. Nothing on the following page.   Next page number eight would receive and file the   annual comprehensive financial report  for the Witchaw Retirement Systems. And mayor, that's all I have for the meeting  of the 26th. Is he travel one way? It might   be. It might be. I'll get lost down. Sure.  Pre preview for the September 2nd meeting   um on new council business. First  item would increase an IRB issue,   actually a letter of intent for an IRB issue  for the market center apartments from a 30   million issue to a 35 million issue to reflect  increased project costs. Where which district   is that in? That is in is it one? I want to  say it's one, but we'll confirm that. Yes. Number two would reduce the number of members  on the animal services advisory board from 8   to 7 and it would move remove the requirement  for a vet to be appointed by the mayor and also   remove the language that has a preference for  a representative of the local rescue group. So   um those are the only significant changes that  are recommended. The number three would approve   a $150,000 budget adjustment to make repairs at  playgrounds that were damaged from this year's   uh flooding, this summer's flooding. And we  do have sufficient funds in the park and wreck   budget in order to do that. We just have to  change the expenditure categories. Was that   mostly wood chips and build? But there's also some  underlying material below that, some padding or I   can't remember the term for the material, but it's  not just wood chips, but it's also as the support   material underneath in some cases. Okay. Uh number  four would approve a KDH grant to identify actions   uh to improve air quality in the community. Next  page number five would approve um annual funding   for the replacement of water manes, elimination  of dead end mains, extension of water manes for   future development, and replacement of sewer  mains. Number six would allocate $270,000 in   home funds for the construction of three homes by  Menanite Housing. Then the last item number seven   there would update the airport hazard zoning code  to reflect FAA guidelines for height limitations. Page two, um, excuse me, next page, excuse  me, item number two is a reasonzoning that   has a difference in MAPC and DAB recommendations.  Next page on consent agenda number three or 3A,   excuse me, would approve a contract for the  purchase of safety barriers to protect our transit   drivers. Uh 5A would approve a change order to  address soil issues uh that were discovered at   the site of our new fire storage and uh emergency  operations facility. What's the amount on that? I'm sorry, mayor. I don't remember. I think it  was approximately $70,000. That's my recollection.   It's under $100,000 and I think it is it's in  that $70,000 range. Yeah. Thank you. Can we   get an update on that? I wanted to know how that  plays into the Cedric County Emergency Management   which is just across the street from us. How  this will be make sure that the different Yep. Okay. Um, next page number 10  would approve the purchase of   replacement handguns for the police  department. Number 11 would approve   the second 5-year property tax  abatement for Textron Aviation. Following two pages would approve the sale of  five public housing authority homes. Mayor,   that's all I have for preview for the second.  Thank you very much, city manager. And again,   next week on Tuesday is not a workshop meeting  because usually the fourth Tuesday of the   month is, but because we have our budget final  hearing, um it will be a regular meeting. So,   if people want to speak during public  agenda, they can still register online   or they can show up and speak um during the  five spots. Council members, any comments? Great. Well, have a wonderful weekend.
