BACKGROUND In accordance with the City's Comprehensive Water Supply Plan, construction of Well No. 6 was recommended to accommodate the City's municipal water demand. The well is located at Birch Park on property acquired as part of the Preserve at Lino Lakes project. Well construction began in December of 2014 and is nearing completion. The next step in the process is to construct the Pump House Facility. The City Council discussed the plans at the May 26, 2015 regular meeting and requested further review of the architectural elements of the pump house. Additional discussion was held at the June 1, 2015 council work session and June 8, 2015 regular meeting. The plans have been revised to incorporate comments received during the discussion. The project design does include an area for storage purposes. The City Council postponed discussion on the storage issue pending completion of the municipal facilities tour held on Monday, June 15, 2015. The Council provided direction at the June 22, 2016 City Council meeting to revise plans and remove the garage/storage area. These changes were presented at the August 3, 2015 work session. The estimated construction cost is $770,000. Funding for the improvement is provided from the City's Area and Unit Trunk Fund.
