PUBLIC COMMENT: During regularly scheduled Board of Commissioners Meeting. Remarks will limit to five (5) minutes per person. The City Clerk will be keeper of time and advise speaker when time has expired. Each member of the public will be permitted to speak only once per meeting. Criticism of public employees will be directed to the Human Resources Department during work hours only.
Al Brannen, 217 E. Bennett Avenue: Mr. Brannen said due to the heavy rains the City got this past weekend, he attempted to put up barricades to deter drivers from flying through the flood waters and soaking the museum, which is located on Pacific Ave. He said the police department told him he’d be arrested if he put the barricades out. Mr. Brannen said the City needs a plan as far as blocking off Pacific Avenue when it becomes flooded. Mayor Troiano suggested Commissioner Leonetti and Chief Regalbuto sit down with Mr. Brannen and formulate a plan. Mr. Brannen said Public Works used to put up barricades when it started to flood. Mayor Troiano said they floated away. Mr. Fox said he had a discussion with Chief Regalbuto relative to the officer who said he would be arrested, and the situation is being handled. Mayor Troiano said the City has a $12.5 million grant for this issue. Mr. Brannen said something needs to be done now, even if he has to put out the barricades.
Kathy, W. Baker Avenue: Kathy asked for an update on the Back Bay project. Mayor Troiano said it’s about 99% through the process. She said she’s worried about the water runoff, as the project sits about 5ft higher than her property. Mayor Troiano said there’s a design setup so that any properties sitting lower than the the Back Bay area will not suffer from any watershed. Kathy asked when this project is expected to be completed. Mayor Troiano said hopefully in the next 2-3 years. He said there will be a presentation in front of the Planning/Zoning Board, and all surrounding residents will be notified. Kathy asked if there is a committee in the City for non-resident taxpayers. Mayor Troiano said no but, the Commissioners are always available for any questions or concerns she may have. Mayor Troiano said just because you don’t live here full time doesn’t mean you don’t have a voice, you’re still a taxpayer.

The Regular Business Meeting was recessed at 4:16 p.m. by motion of Byron seconded by Leonetti. The City Clerk read the subject(s) to be discussed and Executive Resolution No. 10-8-17 convening this meeting.
