Commission Lewica added she believes the City Council Members appreciated the update on where things are at, and they did approve moving forward on Trailside Estates. Council Liaison Scott Pederson updates on Council. He says the budget was approved. The tax rate went down, which was a good thing. We are trying to keep costs down but still be able to do necessary projects. 5. Trailside Estates Update Commission Holley advises she has submitted a list of realtors to see who is interested. The people on the list are all people that work in our area. Most either live in our community or work within the community. Chair Lottman updates on recent findings. The final plot was never recorded. Council Liaison Pederson adds that it was approved but not recorded. It is a small process of reentering into contacting landowners to have them sign off so we can have it reapproved and recorded, since the time has lapsed. Commission Hallan inquires on whether there have been ownership changes over the last year and how many hiccups will run into trying to keep this project moving forward.
