In addition, Mr. Duitsman indicated the City is <br />taking over the County Ditch System and additional planning will need to be <br />conducted to incorporate this system into our storm drainage plans. Therefore, it <br />may be beneficial to provide the committee members with a storm drainage <br />plan also. <br /> <br />Terry Maurer suggested a copy of the Transportation Plan be provided to all <br />committee members, which will be an important element for discussion <br />throughout this process. <br /> <br />The Committee agreed that the upcoming public hearing meetings are a good <br />opportunity to obtain information from the public, however, a time needs to be <br />established to end the meetings.
