14 PUBLIC COMMENT
1s
16 Norma Heuer, 8289 20th Avenue N, addressed the council regarding an asphalt plant planned for the
17 City of Columbus, about a half block from her home. She noted concerns about traffic, pollution (air
18 and water), noise pollution, five hundred dump trucks by her home every day, and being told that that
19 the opinion of Lino Lakes' residents doesn't matter. She noted that the Mayor of Columbus has told
20 her that there is an agreement on the project with other area mayors (Lino Lakes, Hugo, Forest Lake).
21
22 Mayor Reinert clarified that he has signed no agreement but he has been doing the best lobbying he
23 can in communicating with the Columbus officials about resident concerns and urging them to stop
24 the project. He noted his understanding that the land isn't zoned for that use so the council could
25 reject the project. He also mentioned that the nearby Running Aces organization is much opposed to
26 the project. He also encouraged any council members with similar concerns to reach out to the City
27 of Columbus officials.

68 3A) Consider Approval of Resolution No. 17-88, Accepting Bid from Alpha Video for the
69 Council Chamber and Master Control Room System Upgrade - Administrator Karlson recalled
70 that the council authorized the issuance of a Request for Proposals on this upgrade project. Two bids
71 were received and staff is recommending acceptance of the low bid from Alpha Video. He noted that
72 the bids came in a very favorable cost. The resolution does include authorization for a one-year
73 service contract as well.
74
75 The council discussed the service contract element. They suggested that staff work with the
76 contractor to see if the year period for the service contract could begin after the initial 90-day
77 warranty period. Administrator Karlson said that that element of the resolution language can be
78 removed.
79
80 Mayor Reinert noted that the council has been discussing these needed improvements for some time;
81 he believes competition for the project has kept the bids low. Also it's notable that the funding for
82 the project are not general funds but rather fees from the cable franchise.
83
84 Council Member Kusterman moved to approve Resolution No. 1748, as amended to remove
85 language authorizing a one-year service agreement. Council Member Manthey seconded the motion.
