Fahey <br />COUNCIL <br />Beverly Scalze <br />Jim LaValle <br />Steve Morelan <br />Bob Pedersen <br />ADMllVISTRATOR <br />Joel R. Hanson <br />TO: Mayor Fahey & Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator <br />DATE: April 21, 1995 <br />RE: Gilanderi Lane /Viking Drive Update <br />The first item needing action for this project is the approval of the <br />purchase agreement /right to entry for the Dave Smith property. (A copy of <br />which is attached.) This document will result in our purchase of <br />approximately 8,000 square feet of property east of Gilanderi Lane which is <br />owned by Mr. Smith. We will construct the water main from County Road B2 <br />along this area to avoid disturbance of the road surface which will result <br />in savings to the project. It may also be possible to sell this property <br />to the abutting property owner in the future in order that it can remain on <br />the tax roles. <br />We will also need to approve subdivision of this parcel from Mr. Smith's <br />current holdings. In discussing this with the City Planner, he feels the <br />Council can designate this subdivision by resolution because the parcel was <br />effectively created when the State of Minnesota put in Gilanderi Lane. <br />Attached is a copy of the survey I recently distributed to the property <br />owners in that area in an attempt to resolve the street design issue. <br />Based on neighborhood meetings, it appears that a majority of the residents <br />of that area still prefer the looped street option even though the State of <br />Minnesota has offered $30,000 to eliminate the loop. A summary of the cost <br />impact for the various options is as follows: <br />Project <br />Costs: <br />LOOPED OPTION <br />$52,725 <br />Less State <br />Participation: $4000 <br />Assessment <br />per Lot $6,961 <br />We've also contacted NSP <br />The costs for that would <br />upgrade each homeowner's <br />CUL -DE -SAC WITHOUT CUL -DE -SAC WITH <br />CURB & GUTTER CURB & GUTTER <br />$35,150 <br />$30,000 <br />$736 <br />$47,315 <br />$30,000 <br />$2,474 <br />regarding burying the power lines in this area. <br />be $3,765 plus whatever costs are necessary to <br />service to accept underground availability. <br />Page 85 <br />
