Councilmember Noecker said she had questions about where the $75,000 was coming from and whether a ceiling had been set on the predevelopment budget for the stadium, and she asked for a one week layover to have those questions answered. Councilmember Tolbert asked if there would be a staff report and whether the information had been requested from the Office of Financial Services (OFS). Councilmember Noecker said OFS would brief her prior to the next meeting. Councilmember Prince said she also had questions she would share with Todd (Hurley, OFS Director) one of which was that it was dated back to October 2015 and she was curious as to why the Council was just approving it now. Councilmember Bostrom questioned whether the action was premature given the City didn't have site control of the property yet. Council President Stark said it was his understanding that they had already started work, because there was already budget identified for it, and this was just a question of acknowledging the agreement, and the timeliness of the resolution was a valid question. Councilmember Noecker moved to lay the matter over for one week.

He said the resolution was the starting point for setting up a task force, and applications to serve on the task force would be coming out shortly.

(File No. J1604A, Assessment No. 168503; amended to File No. J1604A1, Assessment No. 168520) (Public hearing continued from February 3) Legislative Hearing Coordinator Mai Vang said this had been a no-show legislative hearing, and no one had appeared for the rescheduled hearing. She said the Legislative Hearing Officer's recommendation was approval of the assessment. In opposition: Tenant Denisha Simmons said she had received two notices in the mail stating that the City had picked up a bed and then some garbage. She said her landlord was charging her for the charges, but the stuff was never picked up and she removed the items before the City picked them up. She said she worked from 6:00 a.m to 6:00 p.m. and wasn't able to get off work to attend the legislative hearings, but had taken time off that day because it was very important to get the issue resolved. Council President Stark asked whether the items were hers. Ms. Simmons said there was a twin-sized bed that she'd taken a picture of that day, and an extra garbage container that hadn't been picked up when the garbage vendor had changed hands and a new container was dropped off. She said she didn't know what she was expected to do with a company garbage can. Ms. Vang said there was a video of the clean-up, and the orders were for clean-up of overflowing containers and bags on the ground. The video was shown. Ms. Simmons said the garbage man didn't come for two or three weeks and she didn't know what she was supposed to do with her garbage. She said if the landlord had received notification he should have let her know, and the old garbage can should have been removed promptly when the company changed. Council President Stark asked whether that issue had been resolved. Ms. Simmons said it had been resolved and the extra garbage container had been picked up, either by the company or the City. She said she couldn't afford the $500 and was trying to comply with the City and her landlord but didn't feel she had been at fault. Councilmember Prince asked that the matter be referred back to Legislative Hearings and the public hearing continued to March 2. Ms. Simmons said she had a picture of a twin mattress she had removed herself. She was trying to move by March 31 and couldn't move if she owed the landlord anything. She asked how soon there could be another hearing. Ms. Vang said it would go back to Legislative Hearing on February 16 at 9:00 a.m., and the public hearing would be March 2. Ms. Simmons said it was hard for her to get off work but she was trying to get the days right so she could attend the hearing. Councilmember Prince moved to continue the public hearing to March 2. Ms Vang said Item 46 was for the same address. Ms. Prince said she would take the same action on that item. In response to a question from Councilmember Brendmoen, Ms. Vang clarified that the summary abatement orders went both landlord and property occupant, but the assessment just went to the owner. Councilmember Brendmoen said this was a dispute between the landlord and tenant.
