MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />APRIL 26, 200( <br />STORM The City Administrator noted that at the last Council meeting, the City <br />SEWER Engineer presented costs for installation of a storm sewer culvert in the <br />CULVERT - area of 2489 McMenemy Street to address arun-off problem with water <br />2489 from McMenemy Street running off the street and impacting to private <br />McMENEMY properties. Since the lasC meeting, the City Engineer obtained additional <br />STREET pricing which shortens the directional boring that would be necessary. As <br /> a result, the new pricing is $5,800.00 versus a low price of $9,257.50. <br /> The City Administrator reported that the impacted property owners are in <br /> favor of this improvement and will grant the City construction and <br /> drainage easements at no cost. <br />Ms. Allan introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: <br />RESOLUTION NO. 2006-4-704 -APPROVING THE QUOTE OF <br />MINNCOMM IN THE AMOUNT OP $5,800 FOR INSTALLATION <br />OF STORM SEWER CULVERT IN THE AREA OF 2489 AND 2481 <br />McMENEMY STREET AS RECOMMENDED BY THE CITY <br />ENGINIsER IN HIS REPORT DATED APRII.2I, 2005 <br />The foregoing resolution was duly seconded by LaValle. <br />Ayes (5). <br />Nays (0). Resolution declared adopted. <br />SEWER The City Adminisd~ator reviewed the Public Works Superintendent's <br />CAMERA report dated April 21, 2006 recommending the purchase of a sewer <br />PURCHASE/ camera in the amount of $12,250.55 for use in televising its sanitary <br />RODDER sewer lines and storm sewer mains. In addition to identifying leaks <br />TRADE-IN as part of the City's inflow and infiltration efforts, the camera would also <br /> be helpful in the jetting process. Knowing the extent of tree root growth, <br /> partial blockages, etc. prior to jetting will help minimize problems. The <br /> Administrator noted that as part of the camera purchase, the City would <br /> trade in its rodder for a credit of $4,000, bring the net cosC of the camera to <br /> $8,250.55. <br />Blesener pointed out the cost to the City of contracting for televising oi' <br />services. Blesener noted that having a sewer camera will result in a two <br />year pay-back for the City. <br />The City Administrator reported that the City has been attempting to sell <br />its rodder for the past three years. Therefore, the purchase of the sewer <br />camera and trade-in of the rodder allows the City to get some good value <br />for a piece of equipment it no longer uses. <br />12 <br />
