pond, field of poppies, and potentially an area for more sports fields in the future if Susanville grows.

He continued by providing updates on what projects or goals have already been completed and requested council discussion and direction as other items have been brought forward tonight including the Wingfield Road clubhouse project, Master Plan for the Barry Reservoir area and the dissolution of the Planning and Airport Commission. It was the consensus of the council to leave the Barry Reservoir as it is already on the list and moving forward. The Planning Commission item was mentioned and the amount of time it would take. Mr. Newton stated that an assessment could be completed and a report to include true staffing hours and could be brought back at the October 16 th meeting. It was the consensus of the council to place it between the blue and red line as there is already a Planning Commission that currently takes care of those tasks. Mr. Newton agreed as the items related to ARPA funding are already required to be completed by a certain date. Council Member Miller inquired as to whether or not the ARPA discussion would be opened back up since the Elks Lodge would no longer be accepting the ARPA funding and would like to consider using those funds for the golf course project. 10

After reviewing the resolution, Mr. Newton confirmed that the item can be brought back and discussed at an upcoming meeting. Mayor Schuster mentioned the need to have the current council meet to determine the new council’s priorities. Mr. Newton stated that he agreed and envisioned that it would take place during the strategic planning process. 20240918 Work Priority List.pdf 13.
