<br /> <br /> <br />City Council Minutes <br />October 6, 2025 <br />--------- <br />Page 4 of 7 <br /> 9.1 Council Liaison Updates <br /> The council members provided updates as outlined in the respective advisory board's minutes. <br /> <br />10. MOTION TO ADJOURN REGULAR MEETING <br /> Moved by Councilmember Wagner and seconded by Councilmember Grupa to adjourn <br />the meeting of City Council. Motion Carried 5-0. <br /> <br />The meeting adjourned at 6:58 p.m. <br /> <br />11. WORK SESSION <br /> Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the worksession meeting was called to order at 7:10 p.m. <br /> <br /> 11.1 Winlectric Conditional Use Permit Discussion <br /> The staff report was presented. Mr. Leeseberg stated the new owner is requesting additional time to <br />come into compliance and staff is comfortable allowing the additional time. <br /> <br />The Council was unsure the owners would be willing to comply, noting continued storage issues and <br />that the city has been dealing with this for three years. The Council's consensus was to begin the <br />revocation process with a discussion to be held on October 20, 2025. (Due to the required timeline for <br />the public hearing process, this item was delayed to the November 3, 2025, meeting agenda.) <br /> <br /> 11.2 Fire Station #1 Design Update <br /> The staff report was presented. Chief Dickinson introduced CNH Architects Quinn Hutson and <br />Brooke Jacobson, and Terra Construction Vice President Ben Newlin. <br /> <br />Mr. Hutson discussed the project size, space needs, site location and fire station orientation. The <br />Council asked how these needs are determined and whether the consultant took information from the <br />staff or from industry standards. Mr. Hutson explained how they utilize both methods. Chief Dickinson <br />discussed the consultant's experience and how they have helped staff through the process. <br /> <br />Mr. Newlin reviewed the proposed floor plan and the exterior features. He noted it is an OSHA <br />requirement to have physical activity space. The Council asked about the dorm rooms and who would <br />be utilizing them. Chief Dickinson stated some of the rooms would be used by the ambulance service <br />and some are for future growth of the department for full-time firefighters. <br /> <br />Ms. Jacobson reviewed cost estimates, which she stated are consistent with the current market. <br /> <br />The following comments were expressed by Councilmembers: <br />▪ The majority of the second floor is designed for having full-time firefighters and should only be <br />finished as a shell versus fully furnished. <br />▪ The city already has a fitness center and one is not needed at this station. <br />▪ The classroom space is not needed as the department has other spaces, such as the Emergency <br />Operations Center. <br />Page 6 of 322
