We met with legal council regarding the acceptance of Federal Funding in light of Oregon’s sanctuary status.\u00a0 Through research and contacting the Department of Justice we learned that we would be able to continue to receive our funding.\u00a0 Most of the DOJ concern is in regards to those entities that have jails.\u00a0 Since we do not, we are not in jeopardy of losing our funding.<\/p>\n
Many city staff worked hard to put on yet another very successful Corn Cross on September 10th.\u00a0 It was attended by well over 300 entrants in the race and many other spectators.\u00a0 Well done Carol Cohen and Tanay Richardson.<\/p>\n
Tanya and I had meetings in September working out the logistics and timing of the pool take over.\u00a0 At this item we are still waiting for the OTSD to be ready in the new facility.\u00a0 We assured OTSD that we would make sure they had a place for the kids no matter what.<\/p>\n
Kelly O’Neill and I met with Ralph Taharn, our architect, to get some preliminary ideas for an upgrade to City Hall.\u00a0 We have several issues to address and a limited budget.\u00a0 We want to address staff safety, building security and leaks, and poor windows.\u00a0 This will also require ADA upgrades to be completed.\u00a0 We will stay within budget and do the work we can afford at this time, and phase in the other projects as we can.\u00a0 Emphasis on safety and security will be first.<\/p>\n
Mike Walker and I met with the manager an staff at Iseli Nursery to look at options for great uptake of our treated water.\u00a0 We will incorporate some of these ideas into our mitigation report to DEQ.<\/p>\n
