5. Staff Reports and Updates.
City Administrator Flaherty questioned if the City Council would be interested in holding a Grand Opening
for 85th Street. The City Council concurred and directed City staff to also invite the school district. He
reminded the City Council that off=ices are closed Monday for Labor Day and he asked the City Council if
they were able to take a look at the two options for street lights for Waterfront West. The City Council
concurred to add this to the September 9th for action. City Attorney MacArthur stated after review of the
state statute he concluded that all the money collected thus far has to be used for lighting and as an
example, it cannot be added to the general fund.
City Clerk Loff stated the City of Otsego app is now live and we have 146 users at this time.
City Planner Licht stated the next Planning Commission meeting is September 16th. City Engineer

that time and will water when needed.
