Councilmember Baldwin moved, seconded by Councilmember Chenoweth, that the meeting scheduled for November 27, 1985 be cancelled and a special meeting be scheduled for November 26, 1985 at 7:00 P.M. Council discussed a request for payment from Austin P. Keller Construction Co. in the amount of $206,809.68 and to escrow an amount of $10,844.72 for the Coffman/Larpenteur/Tatum/Lindig Improvements. Several questions were raised regarding amounts previously paid on the project, amount still outstanding, and change order information. Since no written request for payment showing these items has been received from the Engineer, Acting Mayor Ciernia moved, seconded by Councilmember Chenoweth, that the payme be authorized only after the proper document is in hand and payment amou is deemed appropriate. Motion carried unanimously. Councilmember Chenoweth commented on a call from Harold Nilsen, 1794 Tatum, who indicated he was dissatisfied with the back-full being used on the boulevards on Tatum, and questioned if the Engineer is following the project closely. Mr. Nilsen has purchased his own back-fill soil and grass seed and plans to ask for partial reimbursement. Clerk Administrator Barnes will contact the Engineer for information on the back-fill used by the contractor. nt nt Council discussed the workmanship on the Bullseye Alley (north of Larpenteur running from Snelling to Arona) as there is a drainage problem. Since some patching has been done and more work may need to be done in the spring to assure proper drainage, Council questioned whether or not the $17,328.85 payment should be made. Following the discussion, it was decided that the remaining balance due on the project ($3,326.15) would be adequate to cover any additional work needed. Councilmember Baldwin moved, seconded by Councilmember Chenoweth, that partial payment in the amount of $17,328.85 to Ashbach Construction be approved. Motion carried unanimously. No action was taken on scheduling an assessment hearing on the project due to the improper drainage problem.
