Committee approves minutes, schedules next meeting; members flag rate, construction-cost risks
Summary
The committee approved the Feb. 4 minutes, had no public comments, set tentative scheduling by email and adjourned; members cautioned that renewed rate increases could raise construction costs for city projects.
At the start of the meeting Chair called for approval of the Feb. 4 minutes; a committee member (speaker S3) moved to approve and another member (speaker S4) seconded. The Chair called for the ayes and declared the motion carried: "I move we approve the minutes," one member said, and the Chair concluded "The ayes have it." The transcript does not record a roll-call tally by name.
Chair opened public comment and, receiving none, closed that segment. During member comments later in the meeting, one member characterized the city's position as a "steady course" but noted economic variables could change the outlook. Another member said they were "more concerned, with rate increases potentially coming this year" and warned that persistent inflation could increase construction costs. The committee agreed to coordinate the next meeting by email and then adjourned after a motion to adjourn was moved and seconded.
