Mr. Farr moved for adoption of the Resolution and Mr. Brown seconded the motion. Mr. Nicola asked Sarah Bailey if drainage is considered a separate improvement from street improvements. Ms. Bailey said it is considered separate and that to become a drainage project the intent of the project has to be drainage and generally that is addressed through underground storm sewers. She advised this project with pavement of the streets with curbs and gutters will improve the drainage in that area, but only the citizens whose property fronts the improvements is how the project must be designated. Steve Jenkins stated the standing water seen by Mr. Nicola would for the most part be taken care of by the reconstruction of the streets and by the addi- tion of curbs and gutters, but overall drainage for the entire area would have to be taken care of through a very large project and the water routed to the river. That sort of project would cost considerably more dollars, but this project will take care of most of the isolated drainage problem. Mr. Nicola then moved to amend the Resolution to accept Alternative 3 with grant funds in the amount of $600,000.00 and local funds in the amount of $150,000.00, and Mr. Brown seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.

Mr. Coddington moved the Staff be directed to make all necessary additions for the conformance of the application as ap- proved by the Council and Mr. Farr seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
