A letter was sent to the Alabama Department of Transportation regarding the concerns at the intersection of U. S. Highway 98 and Veterans Drive. Mayor Kant read the last paragraph of the Alabama Department of Transportation's response letter and asked for the letter to be included in the minutes. The following is the letter from the Alabama Department of Transportation: 4519 24 March 2008 ALABAMA 03-24-C.EP03 PB DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION BOB RILEY GOVERNOR March 21, 2008 The Honorable Tim Kant Mayor of Fairhope P. O. Box 429 Fairhope, Alabama 36533 Dear Mayor Kant: Re: U.S. 98 Safety Improvements NINTH DIVISION OFFICE OF DIVISION ENGINEER 1701 1-65 WEST SERVICE ROAD N MOBILE, ALABAMA 36618.1109 TELEPHONE: (251) 470-8200 FAX (251) 473-3624 JOE MCINNES TRANSPORTATION DIRECTOR This is the requested response clarifying the Alabama Department of Transportation's position on future modifications to the U.S. 98 Intersection with Veterans Drive (formally know as Section Street). As you know, the City has requested a traffic signal at this location over the past 10 -15 years. In November of 2005, the City requested alternatives to signalization be explored for this intersection. During the next few months, many options were presented and reviewed. In December of 2006, the City requested that ALDOT assist in funding a project to re-route the northbound traffic on Veterans Drive to U.S. 98/AL104 Intersections. ALDOT viewed this project as the best option to improve safety and reduce congestion along this section of U.S. 98. ALDOT agreed to participate in the funding of the work at U.S. 98/AL104 Intersections with the understanding that this project would eliminate the need for a traffic signal at U.S. 98Neterans Drive Intersections. Recently, we were made aware of the City's previous commitment to install a traffic signal at U.S. 98/Veterans Drive Intersection upon the development of Village North which is an approved planned unit development. ALDOT's position has not changed. We still support the current City project to re-route the northbound Veterans Drive traffic, because it is the safest option for current traffic patterns along this section of U.S. 98. In the future, if the conditions change and the City and/or the Developer propose an additional project to modify these intersections further, we would evaluate those requests once received. If the future proposed project improves the safety and capacity along U.S.98, we would grant a permit to the City and/or Developer to make those Improvements at that time. If any additional information is needed, please advise. Yours truly, L)US _&Lt VincentE. Calametti, P.E. Division Engineer VEC/WPC/Ij c: Mr: Frankie Smith Mr. Wayne Curry File Rose Fogarty, Finance Director, and Nancy Wilson, City Treasurer, presented the following PowerPoint presentation no action was taken by City Council. Ms. Fogarty mentioned the annual financial report being larger this year because the City of Fairhope is submitting the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report to the Governmental Finance Officers Association of the United States for a certificate of achievement in financial reporting. 4520 24 March 2008 CITY OF FAIRHOPE GENERAL FUND CITY COUNCIL MEETING MARCH 24, 2008 5MONTHS 5MONTHS INCREASE ENDED ENDED (DECREASE) 2/29/08 2128107 SUMMARY REVENUES 8,876,686 9,394,526 (517,642) FINANCIAL REPORTS D'R E T FIVE MONTHS ENDED EXPENSES 7,839,687 6,934,992 904,895 2/29/2008 EXCESS REVENUE OVER(UNDER) EXPENSE 1,036,799 Slide 1 Slide 2 GAS FUND ELECTRIC FUND 5 MONTHS 5 MONTHS INCREASE 5 MONTHS 5 MONTHS INCREASE ENDED ENDED (DECREASE) ENDED ENDED (DECREASE) 2/29/06 2128107 2/29/09 2/28/07 REVENUES 3,77k489 3,782,779 (4,290) REVENUES 6,903,673 6,463,233 338,445 COST OF ENERGY 2,091,897 2,137,356 (45,459) COST OF ENERGY 3,707,S94 3,088,451 619,143 EXPENSES- EXPENSES- INCLUDTMTRANSNDI9 1,334,691 1,112,482 222,209 INLDDIND TRANSFERS 2,363,757 2,101,276 262,181 TOTAL COST/EXPENSE 3,426,583 3,249,838 TOTALCOST/EXPENSE 6,071,351 5,189,727 EARNINGS (LOSS) 351,901 EARTONGS(LOSS) 730,327 Slide 3 Slide 4 WATER/SEWER FUND GOLF FUND 5 MONTHS SMONTHS INCREASE 5 MONTHS 5 MONTHS INCREASE ENDED ENDED (CRC) ENDED ENDED (DECREASE) 2/29/08 2/28107 2/29108 2/28/07 REVENUES $46,342 544,834 1,508 REVENUES 4477,623 3,365,341 112,282 EXPENSES 646,591 595,093 51,498 COST OF ENERGY 267,612 241,924 25,688 EXPENSES - INCLUDING TRANSFERS 3,054,896 2,778,553 276,343 EARNINGS (LOSS) (100,249) TOTAL COST/EXPENSE 4322,506 1,894,469 EARNINGS (LOSS) 195,115 Slide 5 Slide 6 4521 24 March 2008 CASH BALANCE COMPARISON ALL FUNDS AT FEBRUARY 29, 2008 CURRENT MDR MONTH MDR YEAR S MONTHS S MONTHS INCREASE 2N29101 1/31100 2121/07 ENDED ENDED (DECREASE) GENERAL FUND 3,611,113 2,112,781 3,210,167 2129/08 2128/07 GASNIND 210,912 281,371 031,077 ELECTRIC FUND 1,%1,111 1,M3,617 Z#47,427 REVENUES 23,480,81 23,550,715 (69,997) 8 INATERFUND 3,M455 3,221,564 4,.394,451 GOLF FUND 106,M 94166 140,104 EXPENSES 21,306,92 18,990,127 2,316,798 GAS TAR FUND 344,941 33401 293,078 S CAMAL PROJECTS (INCLUDES LONARY PROJECT ACCOUNT) 3,n6,592 4724179 123,052 EXCESS REVENUE TOTAL -ALL FUNDS IIAI7,M 11,16R371 II,W,36.3 OVER (UNDER) EXPENSE 2,173,693 SINKING FUNDS W4A4G 1156% M 1,061,964 wARRANTPUNDS 3,627,537 4617,1111 #70,246 TOTAL-EXCIDNG 010,700 4,619,166 OAKI53 SINKNSIWARRAM Slide 7 Slide 8 PROPRIETARY FUNDS — CASH GENERAL FUND - CASH C tNAEbTRCRI .mama .

Ms. Fogarty replied there is still $1.6 million to collect. Ms. Wilson said $2.3 million has been collected so far. Council President Gentle said we budgeted $3.9 million, so we are out approximately twenty-five percent. Councilmember Quinn commented on the February finances and questioned the water and sewer expenses. Ms. Wilson replied she used available cash to pay expenses in the other departments and cash was not there for water and sewer. Councilmember Quinn also mentioned the salaries under the sanitation department have gone up considerably and asked Ms. Wilson to look into it. Ms Fogarty said one reason for the increase in salaries could be we had three pay periods in February instead of two. Councilmember Ford also asked why the water and sewer fund expense increased. Ms. Fogarty replied I can get you the specifics. Councilmember Stankoski stated once again the proverbial question is; what do we have in the bank? Ms. Fogarty said 4522 24 March 2008 at this time I am turning it over to Ms. Wilson who replied the cash in bank is $6,510,700.00. Ms. Wilson said she met with the State of Alabama Revenue Commissioner and staff, while in Montgomery, regarding the property tax issue. They told me it was coming to a close, but didn't say when. Council President Gentle asked what if we do not receive the $1.6 million. Ms. Wilson said she used cash that came in to pay off lines of credit, in order to get us in a better situation. In our reserves, we put $604,000.00 in January, $237,000.00 in February, and so far $205,000.00 in March. We paid the fuel cost for January and February out of cash. We will close on the $1.3 million GOW loan tomorrow. Councilmember Quinn addressed the City Council and Mayor Kant regarding the public records issue. She saw the newspaper article on the new information request policy and mentioned she never received the policy changes or heard about the changes. Then, she brought up the City Council packets and wanting the press to get a copy. She mentioned the reporters would be better prepared to write their stories if they had the information prior to and during the City Council meetings. Councilmember Quinn asked Mayor Kant for his opinion on the two issues. Mayor Kant stated he told the City Clerk's office to stop charging citizens for information requests. This is just a temporary policy until the Council decides to change it. As for the City Council packets, the Council needs to decide what to do. Council President Gentle said I don't have any problem with the press receiving the packets, but things are in draft form, just like tonight we changed the minutes. Agenda packets are apt to be changed. There was one instance where the packets were given out, items were to be voted on and then were not. The article was written based on the items being voted on by the City Council. Councilmember Stankoski stated he does not oppose the agenda and may not like to release letters from individuals unless we get their permission. We could give the packets and remove the letters. Councilmember Christenberry said he has no problem with giving out the packets and wants the press to get information to write their story. Councilmember Ford agrees the public should get everything, but not put their letters out there. If someone wanted to write a letter to the Council, it would be wide open for the press. This individual may not want their letter being everybody's business and would be reluctant to write it. Mayor Kant mentioned all ordinances will be on-line soon. Hopefully by the time the new website is up and running. Mike Odom, reporter for the Fairhope Courier, addressed the City Council regarding public records. He said records are public that are submitted to a municipality. There is some dispute by the Alabama League of Municipalities that items are draft until adopted. What do you feel about the letters being public records, City Attorney Wynne? Wynne replied I cannot shoot from the top of my head. I knew there was 4523 24 March 2008 some controversy with the reporters and the Alabama League. I don't know how to answer that at this time. Mr. Odom said items that are not voted on, I feel, are public records. Councilmember Ford said that if someone wrote me a letter with his opinion in it, it was not public record. Mr. Odom told the City Council that Mobile and Daphne have their agenda packets on-line. Councilmember Quinn stated that we should find out what other cities do regarding press packets. I give my packet to the press because I do not need it. Council President Gentle commented to the press; we give all information we can to help you write a better story. The following proclamation was presented by Jennifer Fidler, Public Works Director, Proclaiming April 22, 2008 as Earth Day. Ms. Fidler recognized the members of the Earth Day Committee: Gary Gover, Steve Robinson, Carol Adams - Davis, Eleanore, Scott, Suzie Spies, Jacque Dunnam, Tanys Waldron, Judy Benton, Maria Spies, April Westervelt, David Spies, and Jeanine Normand. .!'Ftttrllu}TP, .�lttbttrntt 3prortamatton EARTH DAY WHEREAS, TO FOCUS THE NATION'S ATTENTION ON THE IMPORTANCE OF CARING FOR THE EARTH.

A copy of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for fiscal year ending September 30, 2007 shall be spread upon the minutes of the City of Fairhope (under a separate cover). Dennis Sherrin announced that the City received the highest level of opinion; an unqualified statement. Mr. Sherrin thanked all City employees for their help and participation. Councilmember Ford asked, bottom line, are we in good shape? Mr. Sherrin replied things are thin, but good. Council President Gentle commented you touched on debt on the governmental side, what is our debt limit and also on proprietary funds? Mr. Sherrin replied for 2007 the legal debt limit is $44 million and our legal debt margin is $26 million. Councilmember Stankoski stated bottom line we are in good shape, but it appears we continue to borrow. What do you see? And, what is our trend? Mr. Sherrin replied the City needs to continue managing expenses. Lines have crossed and have been offset by borrowing. Expenses have grown over the years. The City must continue to evaluate appropriations and have a grasp on the horizon. This can affect the City if you operate on a thin margin. Councilmember Quinn commented you talked about a long-term financial plan and we don't have one. Mr. Sherrin replied you need a 3, 5, and 7 year plan. Council President stated we looked into a strategic plan and it came from the Governmental Structure Committee. After further discussion Councilmember Ford moved to accept the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. Seconded by Councilmember Stankoski, motion passed unanimously by voice vote.

Barry Fulford, Building Official, stated the City of Fairhope is about the only city that has not adopted these codes. He said, "I wish for the Council to pass this tonight." Council President Gentle opened the Public Hearing at 6:39 p.m. No one present opposed the proposed ordinance, the Public Hearing closed at 6:40 p.m. 4525 24 March 2008 In order to take immediate action Councilmember Quinn moved for immediate consideration.
