Site #4 - County Road 19/Pack Land - It was far too <br />residential an area. <br />Site 15 - Old Crystal Bay Road/Sewer Treatment Plant - <br />Again the issue of non-residentia? uses in a residential <br />area. There were also issues of the narrowness of the <br />site and problems associated with the configuration of <br />Old Crystal Bay Road. <br />r-' <br />m <br />Mr. Wilson indicated that it had been suggested to him that <br />perhaps the southwest corner of Old Crystal Bay Road and Highway <br />12 could be commented on by the Committee as to its acceptability <br />as an alternate to the northeast side. It was felt that the <br />primary impediment to this as an alternative was its availability <br />absent condemnation and the expense involved in that. <br />Desyl Peterson indicated that the draft did not address the cost <br />advantage associated with the site recommendation. Mr. Wilson <br />indicated that the City had presented a spread sheet in advance <br />of the April 4th meeting and that would be helpful to have <br />included in the recommendation to the Council. Mr. John Farnham <br />asked what calculation had been done regarding the potential <br />generation of taxes on the property up on Highway 12. Mr. <br />Bernhardson indicated that because of Fiscal Disparities^ Levy <br />Limit laws and new service demands that the property in and of <br />itself would not generate "additional taxes" to the City but <br />possibly only lower the tax capacity rate of other people in the <br />community. <br />Mr. Curt Quady indicated he felt the criteria was self fulfilling <br />and that the Highway 12 site was the only one that was able to <br />fit the criteria. He additionally asked a question as to what <br />may happen to the Post Office in the Crystal Bay neighborhood. <br />It was indicated that the Facilities Committee had previously <br />suggested that the current site be turned into park land but that <br />the Post Office would stay as long as the Postal Service wished <br />to keep it there. It was not required that this force the Post <br />Office out. However, if the City built a new facility on this <br />site and charged rent comparable for the Post Office to be <br />included in the new building that higher cost may well drive the <br />Postal Service from the neighborhood. Mr. Quady indicated that <br />he felc that instead of park land that the City should sell its <br />existing facility for residential use if the facility was not to <br />stay here. <br />f-(k« a I Y Al* I
