Mayor Piercy deemed the corrections to the minutes, without objection, approved. Councilor Papé pulled Item E. Roll call vote; the motion to approve the Consent Calendar with the exception of Items C, D, and E, passed unanimously, 8:0. Regarding Item C, Councilor Bettman reiterated her reasons for voting against the item, clarifying that there was a City policy dictating that growth pay for capacity and this policy was not being followed. Councilor Kelly said because making a change at the present meeting would necessitate referring it back to the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC), he would support the resolution. He wished to underscore that when the council was discussing systems development charges (SDCs) that applied only within the city, the council could make sure it was matching adopted City policy. He wanted to figure out a way operationally to make sure those policies carry over to inter-jurisdictional discussions as well. Roll call vote; Consent Agenda Item C, approval of Resolution 4875 amending sys- tems development charge methodology for the regional wastewater system, passed, 7:1; Councilor Bettman voting in opposition. Regarding item D, Councilor Bettman stated that she had similar objections to the reduction in SDCs that would be the result of the proposed credits in stormwater SDCs. She maintained that the City was not recovering the cost of the capacity and the ratepayers would be required to make up the difference.
