Fahey <br />COUNCIL <br />Beverly Scabze <br />Jim i.availe <br />Matt Anderson <br />Rick Montour <br />ADMINISTRATOR <br />Joel R. Manson <br />Attached are updated cost estimates for the work in the Round Lake storm water pond area. The <br />cost to stabilize the pond water level has increase from an estimated $24,000 to $40,000. My <br />original estimate did not include costs for the controls nor the rock swale to get the water to the <br />pond. Your first reaction maybe that these costs seem high, however, we have oversized this <br />well to so that we can use it to also stabilize the water level in the storm water pond that will be <br />built along Market Place Drive as part of that improvement project. I will happy to explain this <br />further detail at the Council meeting if requested. <br />Based on the revised cost estimates the total estimated cost of this work is $50,440. The Little <br />Canada Road project budget has sufficient funds to do this work. <br />Based on the above, it is requested that the City Council authorize staff to enter into <br />contracts to: <br />1) Install a well system with controls, rock swale and piping to maintain the <br />storm water level. <br />2) Purchase and install pond vegetation through the Ramsey - Washington <br />Metro Watershed District. <br />3) Place 2" of black dirt and hyro -seed the area around the pond. <br />H: \GregS \Round Lake Costs2.doc <br />
