Also, t needs Council n at 6:00 p.m. that some believes t '..-.I can At the last eIP work session on 3/30/93, the City Council began prioritizing the 1993-97 work projects. No projects were deleted from the previously developed lists but some priorities on which projects are most important to the Council began to be established. Mayor Duitsman provided his list of high priority projects and when we began our discussion on available finances, it became clear from Council members comments which projects are high priorities. At this 4/13/93 meeting, I would like to continue to discuss available finances for the eIP with the City Council. We can briefly review the finances presented at the last meeting and, in more detail, present the remaining financing sources that are available for the elP. A concern that must be kept in mind is how much of the available money should be spent immediately versus how much should be saved (and added to) for larger scale projects in the future. Also, a concern that has previously been discussed is making sure a realistic project schedule is developed. We do not want to try to do three years of work in one construction season based on financial and staff time limitations. An example of this time limitation concern is all of the work that has been requested by the City Council that the City staff needs to present back to the City Council at future meetings.
