MINUTES <br />City Council <br />March 4, 1987 <br />The City Clerk asked if the assessment as proposed was a 100% <br />assessment. <br />The Engineer replied that the cost would be assessed 100% against <br />benefited properties, which includes property north of Woodlyn. <br />However, there is no assessment proposed for the McGough property <br />as none of the improvements touch that property. <br />Scalze questioned this pointing out that the proposal is to improve <br />Soo Lane from Woodlyn Avenue south to the edge of the McGough property. <br />Greg Deeb of Roseville Plumbing pointed out that there will still be <br />sewer improvement in the area some time in the future, and the cost <br />of this improvement has not been determined. <br />Joe Murray of Preferred Sheetmetal asked if the proposal was to <br />tear up existing Woodlyn Avenue and replace it with a new street. <br />The Engineer replied that it was, and in his opinion a new street <br />was needed. <br />Jim Ryder of Fuel Economy felt that the road was in reasonable <br />condition and pointed out that there is limited traffic on this <br />road. Ryder also pointed out that watermain could be placed in <br />the green area along Woodlyn and then the existing street would <br />not need to be torn up. Ryder suggested that the portion of <br />blacktop that is in good condition be left. <br />Blesener pointed out that an easement would be needed from Fuel <br />Economy to install watermain on the green area. <br />Fahey asked if Woodlyn Avenue could be overlaid. <br />The Engineer replied that it could not as the base under the street <br />was not adequate. <br />LaValle agreed that there were a limited number of cars traveling <br />this street. <br />Scalze pointed out that the City could create a:street at the end <br />of Woodlyn where the street does not exist at this time. <br />Ryder felt it was most economical to add a section of street on <br />the lower portion of Woodlyn. <br />Blesener stated that he would be in favor of fixing the lower half <br />of the street and leaving the good half alone. <br />Fahey agreed, and pointed out that it appears the watermain could <br />be run in the green area and the street will not need to be torn <br />up. <br />Page 5 <br />
