CITY COUNCIL <br />AGENDA ITEM lI <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: Michael Grochala, Community Development Director <br />MEETING DATE: May 12, 2014 <br />TOPIC: Consider Resolution No. 14-41, Approving Otter Lake Dam <br />Preventive Maintenance Contribution to City of Hugo <br />VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 <br />INTRODUCTION <br />Staff is requesting City Council consideration of a request from the City of Hugo to assist with <br />the funding for preventive maintenance activities to the Otter Lake Dam <br />BACKGROUND <br />The City of Hugo has submitted a request for Lino Lakes to help defray the cost of short-term <br />maintenance activities to the dam located at the north end of Bald Eagle Lake. The dam is <br />currently in disrepair and in need of replacement. While Hugo is not the owner of the dam they <br />have taken a lead role primarily because it is located within the City and no other entity has <br />stepped forward as the responsible party. The dam appears to date back to the early 1900's and <br />the record is not clear what governmental unit it belongs to. <br />The collapse of the dam would lead to a drop in the Bald Eagle Lake water level of <br />approximately 6 feet. Downstream flooding and property damage could be possible in this <br />event. In the interest of public safety and welfare the City of Hugo has taken some preliminary <br />steps toward replacement of the dam including completion of construction plans and securing <br />$252,000 in funding from Mn/DOT for the estimated $600,000 project. <br />While Hugo is continuing work on obtaining the balance of funding for the permanent project <br />there is a need to shore up the existing concrete weir in the short term as a preventative <br />measure. The cost of this temporary is $15,048. The Town of White Bear and the City of <br />Centerville have already pledged $2,500 each toward the work. The City of Hugo is paying the <br />balance. <br />Staff is of the opinion that the while responsibility for the dam replacement should reside with a <br />governmental entity other than the local municipalities, we do believe there is value in assisting <br />the City of Hugo with the existing short term maintenance project as proposed. Funding in the <br />amount of $2,500 would be available from the storm water maintenance budget if approved by <br />the City Council. The work for the dam was completed the week of May 5, 2014. The council <br />discussed the contribution at the May 5 work session and indicated it's interest in participating. <br />
