A. Municipal Water System Report & Recommendation The Council received a December 27, 2002 Memo from Mike Bouthilet that transmits the December 10, 2002 report and recommendations of the Minnesota Dept. of Health regarding the Lake Elmo municipal water system. Mike has completed a number of the State's recommended actions. The up-to-date "as built" of the complete water system would be assembled from the scattering of historic records that now exist; and, inserted in the City's GIS system to accommodate fixture additions or modifications. The Capital Improvements Program includes a 2003 Water Enterprise Fund project to study both fire demand and water system storage. The City Engineer provided an estimate of $3,000 to complete the water system mapping. The City Planner advised the Council that these activities can be combined as a single 2003 CIP project, and addressed as such some time later in 2003. M/S/P Dunn/DeLapp — to receive and place on file the December 10, 2002 report regarding the Lake Elmo municipal water system by the Minnesota Dept. of Health; and, directing the Acting Public Works Superintendent to proceed with the recommendations in that report within his purview.
