Dave Solsrud December 20, 1996 Page Two E. The residents located south of School Street. This would include the Barrington Place neighborhood, the apartment complexes located between 5th Street and Main Street, and the residential neighborhood just to the east of this area. The first question we would have is what is the best way to notify these groups of an informational meeting. We could use City tax rolls and do direct mailings. We could use a word-of mouth campaign through a fairly well organized neighborhood group in the Deerfield neighborhood. The Chamber of Commerce may be another avenue for notifying the businesses. The final idea we thought of would be an ad in the local newspaper. A direct mail notice would be the most work for the City, but it certainly would provide for the best response at the meetings. The second question we have concerns the need to have a public hearing before the City Council after the individual group meetings are held. If you believe one would be necessary, we could facilitate this through a newspaper ad, along with ads posted on the cable TV and, possibly, the City newsletter, depending on publication schedules. We would appreciate any and all input you can give to this type of process. We would anticipate trying to begin the implementation some time in the latter part of January, trying to complete the process within about three months, so that a project could be designed and hopefully let and constructed in calendar year 1997. Please call when you have a chance to review this information. I would be happy to meet you at your office at any convenient time to discuss this issue further.
