City Administrator' s Report: We saw significant progress on Ireland Avenue this week. The sub -drain tile was installed and about half of the road has had the sub -base rock installed as well. If all goes well, they should be paving next week. at the full road will be open to traffic within the next couple of weeks depending on the completion of the storm sewer intakes and the test results of the concrete core samples. The City' s renters at 210 Grant Street will be moving out at the end of this month. At that time, Brett and I will do a walk- through of the house to determine the refund of the deposit and also if there is any work that will need to be done prior to another renter moving in. Brett tells me that the boiler might need some attention and simply by the looks of it the property needs some general cleanup. I would like to set up an Economic Development Committee to start and help in the review of the Tax Increment Financing Assistance Applications that is part of the City' s TIF Use Policy. Currently, there are two to review. I would like to have two Council persons serve on the committee. If anyone is interested in serving on this committee, please let me know after the meeting on Wednesday. Brett and I met with the Iowa DOT about the Forevergreen Road Interchange and the I -80/ I- 380 Reconstruction projects and what the traffic effect might be for Tiffin. There will be more information to come on these projects. Adjourn: With no further business to come before the council a motion to adjourn was made by Ryan, second by Upton.
