No Action taken ADDITIONAL BUSINESS- none CITY MANAGER'S REPORTS Port of Moses Lake - Sister City -Japan Port of Moses Lake Executive Director Jeff Bishop asked City Manager John Williams if Council would be interested in pursuing sister city status with the Town of Toyoyama in Aichi Prefecture, Japan. The Port of Moses Lake delegates will be traveling to Japan very soon for business and would like to take a City Representative to Japan, if the Council is interested in establishing a relationship with the Town of Toyoyama. After considerable discussion, the consensus from Council would be not to pursue sister city status with another city at this time. The Council feels honored to have been asked but they fear it would dilute the current program with our current Sister City- Yonezawa, Japan. The offer has been declined.

Present: Rudy Ornelas - Water Distribution Manager Operator in Training, Robert Deleon - Engineering Tech II, Reuel Klempel -Water Division Foreman.
