3 26 COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 23, 1989 those designated as a state highway or a county designated road. Gravel roads would be included. The program would detail everything that is currently in the roadway, curbs, surface rating, etc. He noted that it would take some time to get this all put together. Mr. Bisel asked who keeps the data base in the computer up to date, the City staff or SEH? Mr. Volk said a member of the staff would be trained to keep the data base current. However, getting the program up and working would involve SEH. Mr. Bisel asked how long would it take to recoup the initial cost of $22,000.00. Mr. Volk said that would depend on how quickly the Council gets involved in a major Capital Improvement Program. He guessed maybe five (5) years. Mr. Boxrud explained that a number of cities are now using this system. He noted that without the correct data, Mr. Volk has a problem making the right decisions. Mr. Reinert asked how long is the data good for? Mr. Volk explained that the data base is constantly being updated so that it should never be out of date. Mr. Reinert said he felt the concept was good, however he did not want the study done and then sit on a shelf to collect dust. Mr. Bisel moved to authorize SEH to assist the City in developing a Pavement Management Study and implement a Pavement Management System at a cost of approximately $22,100.00. Mr. Neal seconded the motion. Mr. Reinert asked for a target date for completion of the study? Mr. Volk said hopefully surface rating can be completed before snowfall, the balance should be completed during the winter months. Mr. Reinert asked for an update on this matter in about three (3) months. Voting on the motion, motion carried unanimously. CONSIDERATION OF ESTABLISHING FUTURE POLICE CONTRACT WITH THE CITY OF CENTERVILLE Mr. Schumacher explained that the present police contract with the City of Centerville_ expire- Decemir 31, 1989. Since Centerville is currently putting together their 1990 city wide budget, he felt it would be appropriate if Lino Lakes determined what the cost to Centerville would be in 1990 for the police protection contract. There are several ways in which Lino Lakes could determine the 1990 Centerville cost. They include the Chief and Mr. Schumacher preparing a presentation for the Council to consider, calling a work session of the Council to prepare a 1990 presentation, meeting with the City of Centerville or appointing two Council Members to work with the Chief and Mr. Schumacher to prepare a draft that would be brought back to the Council for their approval.
