COUNCIL WORK SESSION FEBRUARY 27, 1989 FEBRUARY 27, 1989 has received a proposal from Cristina Harrison who has completed several surveys in Lino Lakes. He noted that the survey would take about three working days and another one or two days to complete a final report. She would probably start the survey about the first of April. He also noted that a survey would'`probably be required for any improvement within 1,000 feet of the chain of lakes. This requirement is for Lino Lakes because of the historic significance of the lakes. MINNESOTA POLLUTION CONTROL AGENCY REQUEST FOR PREPARATION OF EAW The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (PCA) has requested that Lino Lakes withdraw the EAW from the review process and submit the necessary materials to them so that they can start the EAW review process. PCA explained that the EAW process is their responsibility not Lino Lakes. Mr. Stahlberg will submit all of the material to this agency and also try to talk them out of requiring that Lino Lakes withdraw their EAW. Mr. -Bisel asked why this route was not followed in the beginning and Mr. Stahlberg explained that he thought that the City was responsible for this as was the situation in Andover about two years ago. However, PCA says it is their responsibility . Mr. Stahlberg did not feel PCA would be difficult to deal with. Mr. Stahlberg has submitted a schedule for the West Central Trunk improvement. If plans and specifications are approved this evening, the archaeological study can begin about April 1, 1989. The PCA will publish the EAW on March 20, 1989, bids can be taken on March 31, 1989 and awarded on April 10, 1989. The bond consultant will look at the bids prior to the awarding of the bid. Bids cannot be awarded prior to formal action by MPCA on the EAW. Mr. Bisel asked if anything was missed regarding the PCA responsibility and what will it cost the project in time? Mr. Stahlberg said a procedural step was missed. It should set the project back about two to four weeks. Mr. Bisel noted that time is critical at this point. The remaining items on this agenda were delayed to the regular Council meeting. Mayor Benson closed the Work Session at 7:18 P.M.
