Discussion and possible action on any and all matters regarding appointing the Infrastructure Improvements Advisory Committee for the City of San Luis.  (Kay Marion Macuil, City Attorney)

This item is before the Council to appoint the Infrastructure Improvements Advisory Committee for the City of San Luis under A.R.S. §9-463.05(G) (the statute is attached).

Eligibility

* There must be a minimum of five (5) members.  (Staff recommends the minimum five (5) members due to the difficulties of forming a quorum of busy working people.  If Council would like to appoint more than five (5) members, staff recommends an odd number rather than an even number to help avoid tie votes.)

*Three (3) must be representatives of the real estate, development or building industries, of which at least one (1) member of the committee must be from the home building industry.
 
* Members shall not be employees or officials of the municipality.

* Note:  Members do not have to be residents of the City of San Luis.

Staff has contacted qualified candidates who all have expressed interest in serving.  They are:
Gary Black, Guillermina Fuentes and Agustin Tumbaga, Jr. (Home Builders & Developers);
Jerry LoCoco and Shelley Ostrowski (Realtors);
James Davey (Engineer) and
Georgina Gonzales (Banker)

Tasks for the Committee:
(i) Advise the municipality in adopting land use assumptions and in determining whether the assumptions are in conformance with the general plan of the municipality.

(ii) Review the infrastructure improvements plan and file written comments.
 
(iii) Monitor and evaluate the implementation of the infrastructure improvements plan.
 
(iv) Every year file reports with respect to the progress of the infrastructure improvements plan and the collection and expenditures of development fees and report to the municipality any perceived inequities in implementing the plan or imposing the development fee.
 
(v) Advise the municipality of the need to update or revise the land use assumptions, infrastructure improvements plan and development fee.
