Councilmember Cave commented that a lot of the information is unclear but it is clear that this is
the responsibility of the city for safety, so that further damage is not done to this building, and that
the city has a responsibility to fix this wall now.
Mayor Longrie commented that we do have this responsibility, but that in October 2005 there was
a near zero risk of failure and she wished that the city would have had the opportunity to budget
for this. She commented whether the increased risk of failure is so drastic that the city can't wait a
year to budget for it appropriately and if there might be other ways to fund this repair.
