(letter and technical memo included in the August 28th Report) They have found elevated levels of two chemicals that are above what is allowable (Arsenic and Chromium). They require the City to do further sampling in the surrounding areas to see what level of those chemicals "naturally" occur in the soil along with water testing. If those chemicals have a naturally occurring level in the area that is significant, then it may not require any more removal. If the occurrence of those chemicals in the surrounding area is not significant, then they are relating the elevated levels to the site contamination and additional material removal may need to occur. We have reached out to the Engineering group (KCI) for a quote for this further sampling that is required. We will keep you posted on the progress and will bring any expenditures before you. We are doing prep work in anticipation of the approval of the Legislative Priorities so that we can get the different pieces to the designer for the 2024 Guide. P&Zs next scheduled meeting is on August 4th. On the Agenda is the UAF/CRRC Replat (which will help move the sale process along) and a CUP. The annual Municipal Lands Inventory and Use Plan review will be coming before the commission for its first work session on September 19th We are working on several code revisions for recodification, specifically in Title 16 (Subdivisions and Utilities). The Cemetery Columbaria have been installed: 1 in the Odd Fellows portion of the City Cemetery and 2 in the American Legion Cemetery. After the Muni Land Plan is reviewed, the Commission will finalize the revisions for the Cemetery Master Plan which will update processes and fees as well as add those for the columbarium. We are continuing to work on platting pieces for the new Public Works Facility. The CUPs, both current and past, have begun to be reviewed for status and compliance. After we go through our CUP review process P&Z will be reviewing applicable code. Our code currently doesn't have a lot of teeth for following up and helping with non-compliance to the CUP. Our long-term Temp is continuing to work on scanning and archiving for the Corn Dev, Finance, Fire, Public Works, and Electric Departments. We are continuing with our normal business of processing of records requests, short term rental permits, replats, rezones, CUPs, and consulting regularly with community members that have questions about the development and use of their land and helping with applications. GIS Report: - Selena is currently "off' as she moves and settles in. She will be back online and beginning her contract later in September. - Selena is currently looking into a utility network solution where the Public Works data and Fire Hydrants data could include water flow direction, analyses during emergencies, etc. - Selena is updating the Muni Land Plan's Map Atlas for this year's review — incorporating the last-minute edits that will be reviewed later when the PZ Commission has their annual review. - Selena is continuing work on the zoning map audit to coincide with Courtney's work that she did earlier for the zoning history. Most of this research is finished. However, she did ask the Borough if they had any additional information and is waiting to hear back from them. The mapping application is being worked on now. A future land use layer will be started soon and will be added to the online zoning map. The format of the zoning map printed versions will be updated after the above tasks are finished and will be reviewed later by PZ Commission.
