Mr. Turner thanked the Commissioners for their review and feedback of the MS4 Annual Report documents.Mr. Turner stated that due to information gathered by GIS Analyst Scott Bennett at the MS4 myDEQ Annual Report Testing meeting, that there are pending changes to next year's annual reporting process. More specificity and quantification in terms of our reporting responsibility will be required. Because of our attendance at these meetings we already have the infrastructure in place and are better prepared for it.Discussion was done on the Draft MS4 Annual Report and a vote was mistakenly taken, therefore this item will be brought before the Commission on October 18, 2018 for action.Mr. Turner updated the Commissioners on the Stormwater Utility's public outreach literature.
Mr. Turner brought in a sample of a signboard. This type of signboard will be placed at locations such as Stormwater Utility Capital Improvement sites and construction sites to let the public know the Stormwater Utility is at work at that location.
The June 2018 Stormwater financial information was reviewed and discussed.
As a potential Future Agenda Item, Public Works Assistant Director Aimee Ramsey proposed a request from Public Works Director/Town Engineer Paul Keesler regarding recommendations on Strategic Initiatives from the Stormwater Utility Commission about what they would like to see as an outcome from a Stormwater perspective. Mr. Keesler would like to take the recommendations to a meeting he will be having with the Town Council and the Town Manager as they update their strategic plan. It was decided to have the topic as a separate Work Study Session and not a Future Agenda Item.
Agenda items for the next Stormwater Utility meeting were discussed and approved with the following additions:
Under Agenda Item 5. Discussion of on-going Stormwater projects - Update on the Nakoma Sky Project, Update on the La Cholla Road Widening Project and
Future development along the La Cholla corridor. Add an Agenda Item to Discuss the SWUC Work Study Session.
