Gonzalez asked if, based on projections, at the current level and system it will generate a net loss. Daly responded yes, that is correct. Gonzalez then asked if the project will operate as a loss. Daly responded yes, if Council does not offer additional resources and pilot is not successful, then it will not be at a scale to generate revenue. Gonzalez asked what would happen if the project was not successful. Daly responded that the resources would be pulled. Gonzalez asked if the City stands to lose money above and beyond the grant money. Daly said if that was going to be the case then staff would come back to Council.

Wright responded yes, that was correct, and that is why staff is wanting to expedite the project. Jonrowe asked if the current project is delayed, would it be possible to delay the work on Williams Drive. She added that those two projects happening at the same time would be a nightmare scenario.
