COUNCIL MINUTES FEBRUARY 9,1998 <br />Mayor Sullivan asked if the contract could be negotiated within the next week. Mr. Hawkins <br />indicated that there should be no problem, so long as a contract is provided right away. <br />Motion carried unanimously. <br />LCMR Greenway Resubmittal for Clearwater Creek - Mr. Asleson explained that the <br />Clearwater Creek Greenway Grant Proposal is a cooperative project involving the cities of Hugo, <br />Lino Lakes, Centerville, Anoka County Parks, and the Rice Creek Watershed District. The total <br />biennial project budget is $1,300,000 in addition to Rice Creek Watershed's contribution. Lino <br />Lakes' contribution is factored at $250,000, and is calculated as project costs for the greenway <br />including land acquisition, surface water management and water quality improvement <br />engineering and development, vegetation establishment, and trail construction. He added that <br />this grant request was submitted to the Legislative Commission on Minnesota Resources <br />(LCMR) last year and, although not funded, found support at the Commission hearings. The <br />grant has been revised and upon Council approval will be resubmitted to the LCMR for fiscal <br />year 1999 funding. The deadline for submission of this grant is February 13. <br />Council Member Bergeson asked if Centerville's location change has the effect of diminishing <br />Lino Lakes' eligibility for this grant. Mr. Asleson explained that Centerville's change enhances <br />Lino Lakes' ability to receive the grant, as delay would only result in a greater chance of losing <br />this greenway. <br />Mayor Sullivan asked about the funding for purchase of the Lino Lakes land designated for the <br />greenway. Mr. Asleson responded that the funds would come from the surface water <br />management matching funds. Mayor Sullivan also asked about agreements with the present <br />landowners, to which Mr. Asleson responded tentative agreements have been reached. <br />Mayor Sullivan suggested that Mr. Wessel be provided with information regarding this matter <br />for inclusion in the Comprehensive Plan prior to taking it to the neighborhoods. Mr. Asleson <br />indicated that he would work with Mr. Wessel in this regard. <br />Council Member Bergeson moved to approve the request to resubmit the Clearwater Creek <br />Greenway grant proposal to LCMR. Council Member Lyden seconded the motion. Motion <br />carried unanimously. <br />DISCUSSION OF FIRE FIGHTER PENSION, MILO BENNETT <br />Mr. Bennett explained that the firefighter pension fund investments have been fruitful, and that <br />the fund can support a benefit increase from $2,400 per year of service to $3,000 per year of <br />service. He introduced Des Ingland, President of the relief association, and Jerry Peterson, <br />treasurer. Mr. Bennett added that the Fire District Steering Committee has approved the proposed <br />increase. <br />Council Member Bergeson asked if the calculations leading to the proposed increase were <br />reviewed by an actuary or some other pension professional. Mr. Bennett explained that by <br />4 <br />
