The proposed sanitary sewer line will be located along the west boundary of the Staley Neighborhood Park site, and is being installed to serve a new development to the west ofthe Park site. The permanent sewer line right-of-way will be 20' wide and adjacent to the park boundary.

Appropriating Prior Year Reserves and Authorizing the Transfer of Appropriations for a Centralized Police Facility. A new central Police Services building is part of the Police Services Strategic Plan and the City's Facility Master Plan. The existing building was not designed for a police agency and is no longer suitable for a department the size of Police Services with over 225. members. A new facility is necessary to maintain service to the community, conduct business, and provide public safety. Land acquisition and/or initial design for a new Police Building was included in the voter -approved Building Community Choices (BCC) capital program. A needs assessment facility study was completed and indicated 92,811 square feet is needed for a centralized facilityand 101,606 square feet is needed for a decentralized (two buildings) facility. City Council and staff have expressed the preferred option is a centralized facility. 18. First Reading of Ordinance No. 39, 2001, Amending Chapter 23.5 of the City Code Pertaining to Special Events and Demonstrations. This Ordinance would amend Chapter 23.5 of the City Code (Special Events), to include a new defined category of event, referred to as a "demonstration". This term is used to clarify provisions in Chapter 23.5 that previously referenced "events for the purpose of exercising free speech." The Ordinance modifies current Code language to clarify that the City shall be entitled to recover traffic control expenses incurred by the City as a direct result of a permitted event, and shall in all instances be entitled to indemnification by the pemut holder for costs incurred repairing damage caused by the pen -nit holder or its agents. New provisions have been added allowing: (1) the denial of a permit for an event that would violate an ordinance or statute; (2) revocation of a permit if conditions change so that the permit application would have been denied; and (3) revocation of a pen -nit if continuation of an event presents a clear and present danger to participants or the public. The Ordinance also adds standards for determining when and how much insurance willbe required, and makes the knowing violation of a permit a Code violation, in contrast to the present "willful' standard. The Ordinance includes other clarifying language consistent with these described changes, as well as general editing of existing provisions. The proposed changes are the result of a review of the 14-year-old Special Events provisions, based on fairness and constitutional issues that have been identified through the experience ofother jurisdictions.
