stated there are options that haven't yet been explored.
06:29:40 PM (01:34:29) Discussion
Cr. Krauss stated there is a fifth option, or to amend Option 2, as no other option makes sense. He
stated June is too early, and maybe the City needs to look at a Municipal Justice Center.
Cr. Pomeroy stated the Commission needs to listen to the voters.She thinks Option 2 costs too much.
But they need to look into why the citizens voted this down twice.
DM Andrus stated Option 2 is the only option that makes sense to her, but she also thinks it would be
worth looking at a separate Municipal Justice Center.
