1. Public Comment
No comments were made by any member of the public at this time.
2. Review of Polling Information for Possible Utility User Tax (UUT)
City Manager Pattillo discussed highlights from the recent tracking poll regarding the current community climate. There is still a strong sense of support from the community with regards
to City government and the School District. The overall feeling is that the economy is getting better and that there is no longer a sense of urgency.
The Liaison Committee agreed not to move forward with a ballot measure in November but to have a discussion after the election.
3. Proposed Joint Facilities – Dublin High Pool and City of Dublin Community Pool
Dublin Unified School District Superintendent Hanke discussed partnering with the City on the new Dublin High School pool project to maximize the aquatic needs in the community.
The City and the School District agree there is a need for modernization and upgrade of the current Dublin Swim Center to a state of the art aquatic facility of which the community
can be proud. The timelines of the Dublin High School pool project and the Emerald Glen Aquatic Center were discussed, as was the desire to have at least one pool open to students
and the public at all times.
4. Other Business
The City and the School District were asked to consider a future discussion of a community garden at a potential school site that would benefit the students and the community.
There was also mutual interest in recommending that the Tennis Courts be resurfaced at the High School and in looking at ways to jointly fund this project.
5. The meeting was adjourned at 9:45 a.m.
