Alderman Lieder, Chairman of the Finance Committee, reported
that the Finance Committee had met with representatives of the School
Boards and the Library District Wednesday afternoon September 14, 1988.
Developer Discussion was held on a proposed study to review the City's Capital
Donations Development fees. It was the concensus of the people in attendance that
much of the information needed to do the study was aleady available.
Therefore, those in attendance agreed to compile the necessary
information themselves and then look at what we really wanted to have out
of the study. It was the intent to narrow the scope of the project and
thereby get it done more quickly and reduce the cost of the project
significantly. Therefore, before moving forward with any consulting
firms, the City and the districts will get together as a group and define
the information that the groups already have and to target what should
actually be studied before deciding to move forward or not.
Motion by McClatchey, seconded by Nolan, to call a Special
