<br />Mayor Anderson suggested creation of a Council subcommittee to work with the staff
<br />to develop alternatives and bring recommendations back to the Council. He hesitated,
<br />~ to proceed with the 16th Avenue project without some assurance that what was done
<br />~wou1d conform to any policy eventually developed. l'n answer to Council woman Beal' s
<br />comment that a number of people were present who might want to be heard, the Mayor
<br />said if it was decided to develop a policy before moving ahead on this project
<br />there would be a public hearing at which time there would be opportunity for
<br />comment from interested citizens.
<br />
<br />Councilman williams moved that the 16th Avenue sewer reconstruction project be
<br />delayed until the fall with the idea that at that time the sewer line would be
<br />replaced with concrete pipe, assuming 75% tree survival and acknowledging responsi-
<br />bility for replacing any that do not s~rvive with trees that would give the same
<br />effect in about five years. There was no second.

<br />:Councilman Wood said he would favor the subcommittee approach which could bring
<br />more information on the economics of use of the "liner" over a period of time. j
<br />Furthermore, he thought some of those people present' at this meeting might be i
<br />involved in determining the direction taken.

<br />o Mr. McDonald moved seconded by Mr. Hershner for the Mayor to I
<br />appoint a Council subcommittee to develop alternatives and bring
<br />recommendations to the Council as suggested.
<br />
<br />~ Councilman Murray favored that approach, feeling it would be better to handle the
<br />16th Avenue projec.t issue on the basis of a policy with broader application.
<br />He hoped any policy developed would be flexible because of different situations C!

<br />!Councilman Keller requested more information with regard tp CORBAN. He wondered t
<br />'if the proposed publication would be of benefit to the entire community. Mrs. t
<br />Lauris, chairman of the Allocation Committee, said the publication, a literary !
<br />journal, would offer the opportuni ty for creative wri ters to publish their J
<br />wor.ks. This allocation was requested to start the publication with anticipation:
<br />I that sales keep the project going. John Thomas, production manager of CORBAN, ;

<br />that it was in no way connected with the University, and that it would provide I
<br />a central forum for the public at large. "
