II. READING OF BILLS

A. Bill 567 to become Resolution 567. A Resolution to vacate a portion of right-of-way north of Highway 63 Bypass and east of Highway 160 South (Hoover Properties – Old Circle Drive area) was read. Richard Silvey asked whether the Council had any control over the time frame on street construction. He said that there was a street there before construction and that a road is very much needed. He asked that the vacate request be contingent on street construction completion with connection built up the hill as presented to him by Hoover. City Administrator Fugate said that the City would not accept the street until it is built to specifications. He said that between now and the next meeting he would research the state law to see if time frames are allowed in relation to a vacate request. He recommended that this process proceed to public hearing. The motion was made by Councilman Pahlmann and seconded by Councilman Burtrum to make Bill 567 Resolution 567. Motion passed unanimously.
