CITY COUNCIL MARCH 25, 1996 $672,950.00 and the total cost including engineering, administration and easement acquisition is expected to cost approximately $908,335.00. Mr. Powell said that bids would be advertised and opened in May and the project would be completed in July, 1996. He recommended that the City Council follow this aggressive schedule to insure that the water utility will be available for development scheduled for this fall. Council Member Lyden asked what attempt will be made to notify the residents along this improvement of the pending construction. Mr. Powell explained that they all will be contacted. Council Member Bergeson asked why stubs were being placed at only properties where the owners were contemplating immediate hookup. Mr. Powell explained that stubs are costly and providing a connection after the watermain is completed is easy to construct. He noted that a stub will be located on 20th Avenue at the Centerville city limits for future extension of service to the City of Centerville for emergency purposes. Mayor Landers opened the public hearing at 7:31 P.M. Mr. Clyde Carpenter, 6748 - 20th Avenue asked if his property would be affected by the construction. Mr. Powell said yes, a part of his driveway will be removed to lay the pipe. The driveway will be reconstructed to its original condition. Mr. Carpenter said that the culvert under his driveway is not large enough resulting in a backup of drainage in the spring and during rainstorms. Mr. Powell suggested that Mr. Carpenter contact the Rice Creek Watershed District and ask them to look at his situation. Council Member Kuether moved to close the public hearing at 7:34 P.M. Council Member Lyden seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NO. 96 - 31, INTENT TO ESTABLISH A SYSTEM OF ORGANIZED COLLECTION OF RESIDENTIAL SOLID WASTE, JACKIE CONSTANT Ms. Constant explained that this item was discussed during previous work sessions. The Lino Lakes Solid Waste Advisory Committee has been investigating a system of organized collection for the City. Minnesota Statute, 115A.94 states that the City Council must adopt a resolution announcing its intent to organize collection to enable the participation of interested parties, including the licensed haulers, in the planning and establishing a collection system. Ms. Constant asked the City Council to adopt Resolution No. 96 - 31 enabling her to continue researching organized collection. Council Member Lyden moved to adopt Resolution No. 96 - 31. Council Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Resolution No. 96 - 31 can be found at the end of these minutes. PAGE 8
