He said to lease the truck for seven years would be $50,000 per year, and Finance has advised that more money might be saved by combining the pumper truck into another fleet lease. He said the City is also working on a possible lease -purchase arrangement.

City Council Meeting Minutes/June 24, 2003 Page 4 of 8 Pages Motion by Snell, second by Noble to approve the contract with HDR Engineering.

He said he will work with the City on future annexation and will be pleased to follow the City rules and regulations. Iva McLachlan, 520 Wolf Road, told Council she owns the 650 -acre tract adjoining the project. She said the applicant changed his plan due to the proposed SH29 Bypass, saying that redirecting the roadway at this time is arbitrary and premature.

Briggs said McLachlan is correct that it is still undetermined as to where the bypass will be located. Nelon confirmed with Linehan that he has been responding to staff. Linehan said he has done a detailed Traffic Impact Analysis and a detailed tree count in anticipation of annexation. Noble noted that the property is not within the city limits.

Sondgeroth told Council that the Concept Plan will not go before Planning and Zoning Commission until August. Nelon noted that there needs to be more time to further investigate this item. Carls noted that if the amendment is not acted upon within 30 days, it is automatically approved. Linehan said he is willing to delay for the next 30 days, but wants the Concept Plan to go to the Planning and Zoning Commission in August, and they will put in their request for annexation.
