14 PUBLIC COMMENT
15
16 Kelly and Lance Dorsher, 719 77'h Street, addressed the council. They are remodeling and adding
17 on. The proposed addition encroaches into the front yard setback. However, a portion of the street
18 right-of-way in front of their house was vacated by the City in 1999. If the ROW is added to their
19 property they will meet the setback requirement. The legal description (land they own) was not
20 amended when the vacation took place. Staff was directed to help them get the situation corrected.

75 6A) Consider Resolution No. 1&27, Approving the Final Payment, 2015 Surface Water
76 Management Project — Brian Bourassa, WSB & Associates (City's engineering consultant) reviewed
77 the written staff report. The action requested would approve the final payment for the city's storm
78 water management project. He reviewed the areas that were covered within this project. This was
79 the 2015 project and the reason it took some time to finish it is because of the amount of ice on a
80 pond in the project wasn't thick enough to hold equipment for a few years. The project has come in
81 within the original estimate and staff is recommending final payment.

83 Council Member Manthey moved to approve Resolution No. 18-27 as presented. Council Member
84 Stoesz seconded the motion. Motion carried on a voice vote.

too 6C) 2018 LaMotte Area Street and Utility Improvement Project; i. Consider Resolution No.
101 1&31, Receiving Petition Against a Public Improvement; ii. Consider Resolution No. 1&32,
102 Ordering the Project, Approving the Plans & Specifications and Authorizing the Ad for Bid —
103 Brian Bourassa, WSB & Associates (City engineering consultant firm) reviewed the written report.
104 The first action is recognition of the receipt of a petition against the water main portion of the
105 LaMotte project. The street reconstruction project for LaMotte is going ahead as proposed. He
106 noted a portion of water main that will be installed (for safety reasons) at city cost.
107
108 Mayor Reinert explained that most cities don't like to reconstruct roads without including sewer and
109 water. In this city, however, the residents called for a different strategy — people know what they
110 need and that may be a road and not water and/or sewer for instance. In this case the residents of
111 LaMotte have indicated overwhelmingly that they do not want water added to this project.
112
113 Mr. Bourassa added that, as the council is aware, there is another street reconstruction project
114 proposed in the West Shadow Lake Drive area. He noted that there was no petition received so sewer
115 and water will remain apart of that project.
116
117 Council Member Stoesz received additional information on the water for fire services that would be
118 included.
119
120 Council Member Manthey remarked that he is glad to see the system worked so that residents will get
121 what they want.

123 Council Member Manthey moved to approve Resolution No. 18-31 as presented. Council Member
124 Stoesz seconded the motion. Motion carried on a voice vote.

130 Hodgson Trunk Utility Improvements Community Development Director Grochala reviewed the
131 staff report that recommends authorization to prepare plans and specifications for a utility
132 improvement project in the vicinty of County Road J and Hodgson Road. He reviewed the area using
133 an aerial view, noting the proposed location of a lift station and the area it would serve. WSB &
134 Associates' proposal to complete the plans and specifciations was noted as well as the proposed cost.

136 Mayor Reinert noted the council's work session discussion. This is a forward looking proposal, in
137 part to attract development to the area. He had some questions about the wisdom of funding it prior
138 to development plans but has come to agree with the concept.
