e e e the City Council and County Board can be achieved on this general approach to transportation within the City, then the staffs will put together a proposal for the City and County review. It is not necessary at this meeting to determine which roads are most appropriate to be transferred to the other agency. Many other issues including the costs for new roads and the upgrading or maintenance expenses for existing roads needs to be looked at so that a fair economical exchange can also take place. 7. FAIRGROUNDS A memo from Dave Loch to the County Fair Board on this topic has previously been distributed to the City Council and is again attached for your review. I believe the County will take the lead in this discussion and review with the City the future plans for the fairgrounds. As the City Council is aware, improvements are scheduled in the near future around the fairgrounds property. A preliminary plat for residential development south of the fairgrounds is scheduled to go before the City Council in March. This residential development will also involve the extension of roads and utilities and assessments to benefited property owners. 8. GOVERNMENT CENTER I believe the County will take the lead on this topic and will discuss the future needs of the Government Center. One issue that has previously been discussed relates to the transportation routes on the western side of the City. I understand the County does not desire a road to go through the southern edge of their existing Government Center property which is what the long range plans of the City indicates. These plans could be adjusted by the City, but we then need access to the existing County frontage road (and Highway 10) if the other access is deleted from our plans. This road corridor issue is important if the County is pursuing land south of their existing property. Also, the County may discuss with the City the need for municipal serVIces.
