(24)Receive/File:Information on parking lot berms -landscape requirements.Chad
Weaver gave the background on the information being provided.Mike Watts explained
the landscape ordinance for parking lots,which is an Ordinance that West Des Moines
has adopted.The sentiment of the Council was to tum this over to staff for research and
application to Waukee Ordinances.It was also recommended that staff indicate to
Planning and Zoning that an Ordinance would be coming their way.The Mayor
entertained a motion to receive/file.Mike Watts moved,Bill Peard second.Roll call:
Ayes:Watts,Peard,Berger,Gruber,Johnson.Nays:none.Motion carried 5 -O.

(26)Motion:Approving appeal of auditor's decision regarding FY2000 audit.The City
Attorney,Paul Hutchison,indicated that the Auditor held a hearing under 11.21 ofthe
Code of Iowa.The auditor is required to set the rules for these hearings and in addition
the auditor's office is responsible for following ordinary procedures concerning these
hearings.They did not do so.So then the question arises as to whether the hearing was
official or merely an in house review ofthe situation to determine if the billing was
correct.No answer to this question was available from the Attorney General's office.
The Attorney General has indicated that if we wanted to appeal the FY2000 Audit
invoice,we should do so under 17A,which is an administrative appeal and would go to
the district court.At that time,if we wanted or had a reason to do so and the Court
agreed,we could present additional evidence.Nick Gruber moved to appeal the decision
of the Auditor's office under 17A.Mike Watts second.Roll call:Ayes:Gruber,Watts,
