CITY COUNCIL SPECIAL WORK SESSION August 22, 2016 <br />APPROVED <br />42 increased cost. Mayor Reinert remarked that the city would then get a heavier truck at <br />43 less than the cost; the city has already decided to make the purchase so it makes sense and <br />44 it is good timing before the trucks were complete. <br />45 Council Member Rafferty received information on the specifications of the vehicles. He <br />46 asked for more information on what additions will be included. Director Swenson <br />47 explained that the trucks will be larger and able to carry more equipment. <br />48 Staff indicated that formal council action isn't required for the upgrade. <br />49 3. Review Regular Agenda <br />50 <br />51 Regarding Item 6A, Mayor Reinert expressed his concern overall for the MnPass concept; <br />52 he isn't supportive of designating special lanes. Staff explained that the exclusive lanes <br />53 don't actually enter Lino Lakes but since MnDOT is resurfacing the lanes into Lino <br />54 Lakes, they propose the installation of noise walls. Mayor Reinert suggested that the <br />55 council request that the city attorney prepare language that says Lino Lakes will allow <br />56 additional lanes but only if they are not specially designated. Council Member <br />57 Kusterman noted that the lanes aren't actually entering the city, however. Mayor Reinert <br />58 indicated that he still would prefer that language; also he noted that the language in the <br />59 resolution states there is "no cost to the city at this time" and that is concerning to him <br />60 because it would seem to allow to costs in the future. <br />61 <br />62 The time ran short so that other Community Development items couldn't be reviewed. <br />63 <br />64 The meeting was adjourned at 6:28 p.m. <br />65 <br />These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at the regular Council meeting held on <br />September 12, 2016. <br />70 <br />72 is e Bartell, City Clerk - <br />73 <br />2 <br />
