LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MAY 4, 2010 2 Authorize the Mayor and Administrator to enter into a temporary On-Call Building Inspection Services agreement for May-June 2010, from either City of Bayport or Woodbury, based upon best capacity fit for the City’s overall inspection needs Approve Resolution No. 2010-019 accepting the bids, awarding a contract to the lowest bidder, Pearson Bros. Inc. for their base bid of $177,614.65, and approval of Change order No. 1 which removed 42nd Street from the project for a reduced total contract amount of $168,365.57 for the 2010 Seal Coat Project per the Engineer’s letter of recommendation. Keats Avenue Street and Watermain Improvements Keats Avenue is scheduled to be improved in the 2011 construction season. The installation of a trunk watermain along Keats Avenue is seen as a critical loop connection in the water system, to be considered in conjunction with the planned street improvements. To provide an engineering recommendation of street and watermain improvements, and whether these improvements will be better completed together or separately, a geotechnical evaluation (soil borings) should be obtained so as to determine the subsurface condition of the roadway. MOTION: Council Member DeLapp moved to authorize American Engineering Testing, Inc. to perform geotechnical services for the Keats Avenue Street and watermain improvements in the amount of $7,700.00, Resolution No. 2010-020. Council Member Smith seconded the motion. The motion passed 5-0. Street Capital Improvement Program - Authorization to conduct the annual pavement and management street rating services As part of the City’s Street C.I.P., the street inventory and condition assessment data needs to be updated and maintained. The data is important in that it is one of the underlying factors supporting the recommendations of the annual street maintenance and reconstruction program. To maintain the data, the best practice is to re-rate 25% of the street and roadway network each year. MOTION: Council Member DeLapp moved to authorize TKDA to complete an update of street ratings for 25% of the street network in the amount of $5,700.00. Council Member Smith seconded the motion. The motion passed 5-0. Resolution of Concurrence with South Washington Watershed District Petition for a Boundary Change Bruce Messelt, City Administrator, reported the SWWD boundary change petition requests transfer of territory from the Valley Branch Watershed District, which was formerly governed by the Lower St. Croix WMO. Upon dissolution of the Lower St. Croix WMO, a dispute ensued over which entity or entities should govern its territory.
