Citizen Comments
Linda Saville reminded everyone of the open house for the new Public Works building on
Friday, July 19th.
Dawn Sidwell asked why the meeting time was changed from 7:00 p.m. to 5:15 p.m. She
felt the 5:15 time made it difficult for working people to attend the meetings. She also
complained that the City Council gets dinner each Tuesday on the citizen's tax dollars.
She asked if the City pays attention to people who are renting their properties and if they
are taxed higher.
Steve Fairbanks stated that the State recognizes all properties as residential properties,
and the State is the body who sets those laws, not the City Council. Ms. Sidwell should
take her argument up with the County Accessor or Legislature.
Chair Linda Martinez Saville explained the meeting time change and dinner.
Dave Nicholson, former Community Coordinator, also complained about the 5:15 p.m
start time for the meeting. He asked what happened to the Community Coordinator

Program which he felt was an outstanding program, and how terrible park strips look in
the City. He felt the City should remind residents to take care of their park strips.
Mayor Bradburn explained how the Community Coordinator Program is being
administered through e-mail where timely information can be distributed in real time, and
in a modern way.
Monica Zoltanski spoke regarding the importance of a review by the City Council of the
sign ordinance.
Shawn Heath, expressed appreciation to the City Council for their time and effort. He is a
full time student and works a full time job and did not feel that the 5:15 start time was a
problem.
