B. Council Member Lothrop suggested, regarding park development fees relating to new development, that the Committee take a look at recommendations for other impact fees, i.e. library impact fees. C. Council Member Loeffler commented he was glad to see the Capital Improvement Program list of projects. He stated that he wished the community had a greater opportunity to see this and comment on the document. He commented on a recent report on E-Commerce and the loss of new revenue.
