CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION NOVEMBER 18, 1998 <br />Brian stated the relationship with the Metropolitan Council will not be jeopardized if the <br />contracts are approved and the Comprehensive Plan is submitted with less than a 4/5 <br />vote. If the Metropolitan Council withholds funding from the Livable Communities <br />Demonstration Account can recoup what it has spent but the project will end. However, <br />if a conclusion regarding goals for the Livable Communities is not reached the project <br />would be in jeopardy. John suggested there be an out in the contracts stating the project <br />based on funding from the Metropolitan Council. Brian stated that staff will pursue that <br />concern if it is not already addressed in the contracts. Timelines are given regarding the <br />funding. <br />This item will appear on the agenda at the regular Council meeting on Monday, <br />November 23, 1998. <br />CIVIC COMPLEX MID -PROJECT REPORT, BRIAN WESSEL <br />Brian distributed a mid -project report and budget for the Civic Complex. The project is <br />on schedule and within budget. He encouraged everyone to visit and tour the site. A <br />formal tour will be scheduled for December 2, 1998, 3:00 p.m., for Council Members and <br />John McClellan. The Early Learning Center will be in operation on time. The Police <br />Department and City Hall will be in operation by April, 1999. A detailed summary of the <br />cost regarding the project will be distributed to Council Members after the project is <br />complete. Two (2) more bids will be coming before Council for approval. Brian referred <br />to the Cost Allocation Procedure that was developed. He expressed concern regarding a <br />disbursement made under Premier Construction. The City is paying approximately <br />$8,000 - $10,000 premium price for a design change that occurred late in the process. <br />John Powell explained that because the change was made very late in the process it cost <br />more. Brian said he does not feel the City should have to pay the premium price. Staff <br />will pursue this issue with the architect and the City will hold back the excessive <br />payment. <br />Andy noted that some residents have indicated they do not want low income housing <br />unless it is senior housing. <br />Mary Alice stated the YMCA is looking for commitment from the City to build a YMCA. <br />Once City commitment is received, 2/3 of the funding will be achieved. The rest of the <br />funding will be obtained from fund raising. <br />Kim stated that a meeting should be held on December 21, 1998, regarding commitment <br />to the YMCA from the City Council. John suggested the issue of City funding be <br />revisited regarding this project because of unexpected expenses. Andy suggested that <br />other cities be approached to help with the funding. Mary Alice indicated other cities will <br />be approached but they will not be a major part of the funding. John noted Lifetime <br />Fitness is going in the City of Shoreview. Brian indicated he does not think that will <br />affect this project. <br />4 <br />• <br />• <br />
