Bennet Council tables regional hazard-mitigation plan and asks for property-owner contact on Quincy Street project; flags USPS lease environmental language
Summary
The Bennet City Council removed the Lower Platte South NRD hazard-mitigation plan from consent and tabled adoption until December, asked staff to contact property owners about the Quincy Street right-of-way, and discussed environmental concerns in the USPS lease that may require an inspection.
At its Nov. 10 meeting the Bennet City Council removed the Lower Platte South NRD Hazard Mitigation Plan from the consent agenda and tabled adoption until the December council meeting to allow further review.
The council also removed authorization of Catlett Surveying’s fee for the Quincy Street right-of-way project from the consent agenda. City Attorney Brian Schuele (as recorded in the minutes) explained the status of the Quincy Street project and said property owners must be contacted prior to approval of the plan; the item remains pending follow-up.
Council members discussed updates to the USPS lease, including proposed annual rent increases and contract verbiage. Josh Buck and Brian Schuele said they would contact a contractor or inspector to obtain a quote to examine the building for environmental concerns identified in the lease language. The minutes do not record an inspection estimate at the meeting.
Other discussion items included the potential removal of Keno from the Big Ten Tavern (the clerk will provide the original application to the city attorney), a proposed increase to $550 for non-resident use of the city refuse site that will require Master Fee Schedule approval, and the review of five-year contract amendments that Solheim’s office amended and returned to counterparty Uribe for review. Mayor Cheney and staff reviewed written reports and opened the floor for public comment; Larry Kramer raised a banner issue for the Dec. 6 Christmas in the Park.
