Like to call tonight's meeting an order, please join me in the Pledge of Allegiance.

Under God is liberty and scroll.

Should we get our meeting tonight?

I'll take a moment to acknowledge that we have a quorum of planning commissioners present.

With six of us, although we have two that will probably be here in the next few minutes.

So we're good.

Either way.

Planning commission meetings are an important part of the process for interpreting and implying the city's comprehensive plan and unified development ordinance.

It's important that our meetings are conducted with dignity and respect, and that applies to every person in attendance.

We strive to provide an atmosphere where the ideas and opinions of all participants are held in the highest regard.

And finally, the actions on the issues we discuss are ultimately under the responsibility of the city council.

As a planning commission, we're here to help the councils, our elected representatives to be fully informed to make the best choices for our city.

By statute, planning commission strives not to engage with any party on the issues on the agenda prior to our meeting.

Should that interaction take place as a result of a business relationship or any other type transaction, which we refer to as ex parte communication.

Commissioners will report that interaction when we reach that item on the agenda.

We'll now move to the consent agenda.

And this evening we have four items on our consent agenda.

Commissioners, do you have any items that need to be pulled for additional information or questions from staff?

Mr.

Chairman, I had one question on item B, if we could remove that one, please.

Okay.

Um please note that uh we'll be pull item B from the consent agenda, PLN 2500.

Are there any others?

All right.

Um I will uh call for a voice vote voice vote on the remaining three items on the consent agenda.

The motion, please.

Mr.

Chairman, I would move for the approval of the consent agenda minus item B as in Bravo for approval, subject to all staff comments and stipulations.

Thank you, Commissioner Crane.

Thank you.

Commissioner Somewhere down there.

All those in favor say aye.

Aye.

Opposed, nay.

And that does pass 7 to 0.

Commissioner Brigida.

Thank you, Mr.

Chairman.

Um, I was wondering if for the record the staff could provide a little bit more information.

I'm pulling up the exact number here, but of the more background information on the 18.69 million dollar uh animal shelter that we have in the CIP.

Uh this evening, I've heard some information that's a little bit of a downgrade of a project, but that might not exactly be the case.

And I believe we have 6.3 or something million like that that's already encumbered on the project.

So if staff could just provide a little bit more background on that.

I don't think your mic's on.

Should be automatic.

Can you hear me now?

Okay, yep.

Jamie Roboshot Economy Director.

Um yes, this project was previously in the 2025 to 2029 CIP at 15 million dollars.

Um over that five-year period into the 2026 to 2030, the total project cost is now 25 million.

And so what you're seeing in that five-year span from 2026 to 2029 is what's allocated during that period.

So previous dollars in the previous CIP are shown on that individual.

If you go to the animal shelter um sheet specifically, it's gonna show you prior funds that were allocated in a previous CIP.

So for example, this project's been under design and um we've had architects and contracts in place on this for a few years now, and some expenses have been spent.

We've also purchased land um that the site will go on, and so all those previous expenses aren't going to show in that sheet that you have in your packet of the 26 to 2030 period, but the total project budget asset in the 26th to 2030 CIP is what we would refer to as 25 million, even though you're seeing that 18.7 there.

Now that is still subject to City Council approval to date.

I don't have the exact number off my off the top of my head.

The project was authorized at 15 million, and then the council earlier this year authorized it to go up to, I believe, um around 19 million.

Um the 26 to 2030 is going to put that at 25, just because as we've gotten further down on the design of it.

So it hasn't been downgraded, but the project is still being designed.
