WILDOMAR -- The Wildomar City Council-elect soon will have some of the more customary trappings of a public agency: business cards, stationery, e-mail addresses and a regular meeting location.

And a Web site is in the works.

The council-elect told interim City Manager John Danielson during Wednesday night's meeting to work with a subcommittee of council-elect members Scott Farnam and Marsha Swanson on the design of the Web site.

Farnam said the committee would present in two weeks a detailed proposal for the consideration of the full council-elect, which will be sworn in as the city's inaugural council July 1 when Wildomar officially incorporates.

In the meantime, Danielson said the council-elect's public works and engineering firm, Interwest Consulting Group, would set up e-mail accounts for each of the five council-elect members.

The terms of the agreement the council-elect negotiated with Interwest, which listed a Long Beach address on the contract, were approved early during Wednesday's meeting. The contract detailed the hourly rates, generally more than $100 an hour, that the group would charge for various public works and engineering tasks.

During a special meeting last week, the council-elect voted 3-2 to select Interwest, a firm that has worked with Danielson when he was city manager in Elk Grove.

Before the Interwest contract was approved by a 5-0 vote Wednesday, council-elect member Sheryl Ade went through various pages with staff to correct punctuation and omissions and other errors: such as listing Orange County as the venue for any lawsuits instead of Riverside County.

Deciding on a more permanent temporary meeting location, the council-elect voted to pick Elsinore High School as its first choice and David A. Brown Middle School as an alternate location.

Wednesday's meeting was held in a small building at Cornerstone Community Church because the Lake Elsinore Unified School District asked the council-elect to sign an agreement to cover the legal liability for its meetings at the middle school.

Wildomar's interim city attorney, Julie Hayward Biggs, said she had received assurances from the county that it would cover the liability for meetings of the council-elect if it wanted to meet in a school.

The council-elect's first meeting was held at David A. Brown, the second at Cornerstone and the third in a business park on the west side of Interstate 15.

Future meetings, whether held at a high school or the middle school, will be held on the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month before the July 1 meeting.

But there was some discussion before that motion was approved by a 4-1 vote.

A motion to keep the meetings during the first and third Wednesdays of the month was defeated by a vote of 3-2.

The meetings were moved to the second and fourth Wednesdays, in part, to give members of the council a chance to attend community meetings that fall on the third Wednesday of the month.
