<br />Councilor Poling recalled that several months earlier they had taken action to extend the deadlines on applications. <br />City Manager Ruiz responded that what they had said was that if a permit had not expired, it could be extended a few <br />years. <br /> <br />Councilor Poling said this company had done its due diligence and submitted its application, which would expire in <br />June, and now had to come up with nearly a half million dollars in order to start “turning up dirt.” He was interested <br />in seeing whether they could take some immediate action in order to defer collection of the SDCs until the project was <br />completed. <br /> <br />Councilor Brown thanked everyone for their testimony. He asked if it would be possible to reinstate the request for <br />NCS. City Attorney Emily Jerome responded that the council had the power to do so, but it would involve moving <br />funding around and having to take some line items from the recommendation. <br /> <br />Councilor Brown asked how to proceed. Ms. Jerome replied that he would have to table it to the work session <br />scheduled for April 28 and a revised motion could be presented. Councilor Brown indicated his intent to do so. <br /> <br />Councilor Taylor thanked everyone for coming down and providing input. She was not in favor of deferring SDCs <br />for any business that was not in the downtown area. Regarding the NCS, she asked if CDBG funds could be used. <br />City Manager Ruiz affirmed that they could. Councilor Taylor agreed that they should consider taking more time on <br />the CDBG allocations. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy closed by emphasizing that the council and community valued the NCS and its students. <br /> <br />2.
