MINUTES CITY COMMISSION MEETING

CITY HALL, 701 WASHINGTON ST.

Wednesday, February 20, 2019 5:30 p.m.

The governing body met in regular session on February 20, 2019, at 5:30 p.m. in the City Commission Room at City Hall, with the following members being present: Commissioners Matthew, Hasch, Snavely, Lambertz, and Sacco.

Absent: None. Other Officers: City Clerk Stacey Smith, Finance Director Amber Farha, and City Attorney Justin Ferrell. There being a quorum present, Mayor Matthew called the meeting to order. Visitors: Toby Nosker, Jim Lowell, Kim Reynolds, Ken Johnson, Gary Jeardoe. Staff present: Ron Copple, Public Works Director; Jeremy Arnold, Utilities Director; Bruno Rehbein, Building Inspector; Eric Voss, Fire Chief; Ric Fredrickson, Police Chief; Chris Atkins, Recreation Director. There was no invocation. The Pledge of Allegiance was recited. APPROVAL OF AGENDA No changes to the agenda. PROCLAMATIONS/RECOGNITIONS/PRESENTATIONS/ITEMS SCHEDULED AT A CERTAIN TIME Introduction of CloudCorp Executive Director Kim Reynolds Kim Reynolds, who replaced Ashley Hutchinson at the beginning of the year, introduced herself, and discussed activities with CloudCorp. CloudCorp’s job is to recruit, retain, and provide expansion of businesses in the county. She stated a new website is in the works, which will provide useful information to those needing to know about the community. PUBLIC COMMENTS None. ACTION AGENDA (Action Expected) Approval of February 6, 2019 Minutes Commissioner Sacco moved to approve the minutes from February 6, 2019. Commissioner Snavely seconded. Motion carried. Approval of Appropriation Ordinance #3 Commissioner Sacco moved to approve appropriation ordinance #3. Commissioner Hasch seconded. Motion carried. Engineering Agreement for 1st & Lincoln Improvements The City solicited bids from the two local engineering firms, Campbell & Johnson and RMA Engineering, for the 1st & Lincoln project, which will widen the shoulder. RMA declined due to their current workload. Campbell & Johnson’s proposal was for $39,460.00. Construction will begin by March 1, 2020.

2 | P a g e 2 - 2 0 - 1 9 M i n u t e s

Mayor Matthew had several questions about the contract, which were answered by Ron Copple and Ken Johnson. Commissioner Sacco requested widening the solicitation area, in order to receive more quotes. Commissioner Snavely moved to approve the mayor to sign the agreement from Campbell & Johnson in the amount of $39,460.00. Commissioner Lambertz seconded. Motion carried. Lease/Purchase of City Hall Copier The current copier is now 6 ½ years old. Stacey Smith said the color printer, which is used in place of needing a color copier, now needs several hundred dollars in repairs. It was staff’s recommendation to get a color copier this time. The current copier, rather than being traded, will be moved to the fire department. Ms. Smith said quotes were solicited from four companies, with three responding. It was recommended to continue the relationship with Century Business Systems, which has given us excellent service over the years. The $1 buyout option allows us to own the copier at lease end, rather than trading it back in at that time. Commissioner Lambertz moved to approve the lease/purchase of the Savin IM C4500 copier from Century Business Systems for $7,260, with a 36 month lease and the $1 buyout option. Commissioner Hasch seconded. Motion carried. REPORTS Manager’s Report None. Staff Reports None. Mayor/Commissioner Comments & Reports Commissioners Sacco and Lambertz praised staff on yet another round of snow removal. Commissioner Lambertz said though he understood the earlier comments on soliciting bids from out of town, he believed it was in the City’s best interests to keep business in town when possible. Mayor Matthew questioned the legalities of the upcoming male dancers at Valley Rental Center. ADJOURN There being no further business, at 6:05 p.m. it was moved and seconded to adjourn. (Seal)

Re: Approval of Ordinance 2019-3147 – Changes to City Code Sec 18-115

After experiencing several snow events of significant magnitude, within a few days of each other, and combined

with temperatures consistently below freezing prohibiting natural melting of snow and ice, city staff has determined

the current language of Concordia Code Section 18-115 is not practically enforceable, and is thereby causing

hazardous pedestrian travel conditions within the City of Concordia. Presently, this language, consistent since at

least 1949, reads as follows:

18-115. Removal of snow and ice from sidewalks.

It shall be unlawful for the owner or the occupant of any lot abutting upon any sidewalk to fail to cause to be

removed from such sidewalk all snow and ice within five hours from the time such snow has fallen or ice has

accumulated; provided, however, that, if the snow falls or ice accumulates upon sidewalks in the nighttime, removal

of the same must be made within five hours after sunrise on the following day.

(Code 1971, § 22-24)

Staff recognizes that many of our residents’ work schedules make snow removal within five hours of completion of

a snow event very challenging. This is also a challenge for our residents who hire another person or company to

remove their snow, as those that are hired may have several contracts, and it may take them more than five hours to

complete all the contracts.

Presently, enforcement of this ordinance is performed on a complaint basis, and staff believes that is an acceptable

method of enforcement considering our current staffing and prioritization of workload. When a complaint is

received, enforcement is currently handled following the nuisance procedure, which is not practical for snow

removal.

City staff believes enforcement similar to that of parking tickets will better achieve the desired effect of safe

pedestrian travel on our sidewalks. In order for our police department to issue tickets, an ordinance specific to this

topic must be adopted. Listing a specific flat fee within the ordinance will also expedite the enforcement process.

Therefore, we ask the Commission to approve the enclosed ordinance allowing expedited enforcement of snow

removal from sidewalks.

RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve Ordinance #2019-3147 addressing changes to City Code Section 18-115

regarding the enforcement of snow removal from public sidewalks.

ORDINANCE NO. 2019-3147

AN ORDINANCE REPEALING CONCORDIA CODE SECTION 18-115

AND ADDING NEW CONCORDIA CODE SECTION 18-115 PROVIDING

SECTION 1. Section 18-115 of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Concordia is

hereby repealed as of the effective date set forth below.

SECTION 2. The Code of Ordinances of the City of Concordia is hereby amended, by

adding a new Section 18-115 which shall read as follows:

Sec. 18-115. Removal of snow and ice from sidewalks

(a) It shall be unlawful for the owner or occupant of any lot abutting any public sidewalk to

fail to cause to be removed from such sidewalk all snow and ice promptly but not later

than 24 hours from the time such snow has fallen or ice has accumulated.

(b) Failure to abide by these regulations shall result in a fine assessed to the owner or

occupant of the property abutting the sidewalk in the following amounts:

(1) $25.00 for the first offense within the previous six months

(2) $50.00 for the second offense within the previous six months

(3) $100.00 plus court costs for the third offense within the previous six

months

SECTION 3. This ordinance shall be summarized for publication as follows:

On March 6, 2019, the City of Concordia adopted Ordinance No. 2019-3147, amending

Concordia Code Section 18-115 to provide for immediate enforcement for failure to

remove snow from sidewalks in a timely manner. The complete text of this ordinance

may be obtained and viewed free of charge at the office of the city clerk. A reproduction

of this ordinance will be available for not less than one week following the publication of

this ordinance at the website address of the City of Concordia,

SECTION 4. This ordinance shall be in full force and effect from after publication of the
