He believed it was important for residents to remember this <br /> • during the Pathways hearing process and not always assume that large parcels would be <br /> subdivided. <br /> MOTION SECONDED AND-CARRIED: Moved by Warshawsky, seconded by Kerr and <br /> passed unanimously to accept the notification of Fast Track approval: request for a lot <br /> merger of two existing parcels into one 8.03 acre parcel; Lands of Malavalli and Packard, <br /> 27500 and 12840 La Vida Real. <br /> Mayor Pro Tem Kerr requested clarification on consent calendar item 4.2 Disbursements, <br /> specifically, the engineering costs. Administrative Services Director Sarah Joiner <br /> explained that the billings for Mark Thomas & Co. reflected several months of costs <br /> because there had been a delay in the billings and most were charges billable to <br /> applicants. She added that the Acting City Engineer's consulting fees were <br /> approximately what it would cost for a full time staff City Engineer; however,with a staff <br /> City Engineer you would have additional staff resource time. The Acting City Engineer <br /> provides approximately a fifty percent work schedule. <br /> City Manager Cassingham noted that the recruitment for the new City Engineer was <br /> moving forward and explained that this was a particularly challenging position to fill due <br /> to the limited number of civil engineers in the municipal work place and the number of <br /> cities vying for the top qualified applicants. Cassingham added that the Town was <br /> offering a competitive employment package for the position. <br /> 2 <br /> City Council Meeting Minutes <br /> January 6,2005 <br />
