Owasso City Council
July 9,2001
Mr Ray discussed items 2 & 3 as one. For several months staff has been involved in discussions
with representatives from the cities of Jenks, Bixby and Sand Springs, the Rogers County
Industrial Authority, PSO, and the Metropolitan Tulsa Chamber of Commerce regarding
economic development efforts. It is proposed that these entities joint together to form a regional
economic development consortium. PSO and the five cities would contribute $25,000 in cash,
and the Tulsa Chamber would provide a maximum of $25,000 in matching services. An
economic development specialist would serve under the direction of the Tulsa Chamber's
Economic Development Manager, but would focus on the priorities of the consortium. The
OED A Trustees have discussed the consortium and have voted to support the regional approach
to economic development, contingent upon the transfer of funds from the City. The FY 2001-02
budget contained a $35,000 appropriation in the Economic Development Department which was
not used. Staff will request that $25,000 for that amount be carried over to the FY 2002-03
budget and then transferred from the General Fund to the OEDA Fund. These two requests will
be on the agenda for the regular City Council meeting on July 16th.
ITEM 5: DISCUSSION RELATING TO PUBLIC WORKS ISSUES.
A. Engineering Service Agreement for Phase I Water System Improvements
B. Engineering Service Agreement for Intersection & Roadway Improvements
C. Engineering Service Agreement for Expansion of Water Master Plan
D. 86th and Mingo Right-of-Way Acquisition Agreement with ODOT

Mr Carr discussed the items listed, as well as an invoice for additional funds for the 86th & Main

Small Cities Grant. The engineering service agreement for expansion of the water master plan,
the 86th and Mingo right-of-way acquisition agreement with ODOT, the invoice for additional
funds for the 86th and Main intersection project, and the INCOG agreement will be placed on the
July 16th agenda for action. It is anticipated that a request to award a bid for the purchase of a
refuse vehicle will be on the August 6th agenda.

ISSUES.
