March 18, 2005 <br />CITY OF CIRCLE PINES <br />200 Civic Heights Circle <br />Telephone: (763) 784 -5898 <br />Circle Pines, MN 55014 www.ci.circle- pines.mn.us <br />Fax: (763) 785 -2859 TDD: (763) 784 -9724 <br />Gordon Heitke <br />City Administrator <br />City of Lino Lakes <br />600 Town Center Parkway <br />Lino Lakes, MN 55014 <br />Re: Sewer Joint Powers Agreement <br />Dear Mr. Heitke: <br />This letter is a follow -up to our phone conversation and our recent meetings regarding <br />the Joint Powers Sewer Agreement. As I have indicated we are at a decision point, as <br />we are approaching the first closing for Pine Hollow at the end of March. Therefore you <br />have agreed to place this item on the Council's March 28 agenda. <br />As I understand it, the Lino Lakes city staff has no technical concerns about the Sewer <br />Joint Powers Agreement and our interconnection with the City of Lino Lakes. Staff's <br />concern rests with the replacement of the Rice Lake Estates Park that was on leased <br />property, owned by the City of Circle Pines, south of the Pine Hollow Development. <br />As you are aware, the City of Circle Pines discovered in June the Rice Lake Estates <br />Park was partially installed to the north of the property the City of Circle Pines leased to <br />the City of Lino Lakes for the installation of the park equipment. This error in location <br />was discovered when the survey for the Pine Hollow Development occurred, and at our <br />June 14, 20 04 meeting with Lino Lakes Staff we indicated that the park would need to <br />be moved. The City of Circle Pines committed at that point to relocate the park and <br />hard - surface basketball court further to the west. Our commitment to this remains <br />unchanged. <br />You have further requested a timeline for the replacement of these facilities. Listed <br />below are the steps and dates whereby we expect to accomplish this replacement. <br />As we have previously corresponded, we have retained Brauer & Associates to assist <br />us in preparing plans for the relocation of this equipment. This also includes the master <br />planning of the Baldwin Park site. <br />Printed on Recycled Paper <br />
