(Motion <br />passed 5-0). <br />Washington County Deputy Jamie Jackson introduced herself as the new deputy on the <br />Lake Elmo contract. <br />B. Bid Opening/Award —Hill Trail Reconstruction Project <br />Tom Prew reported the City received two qualified bids with the lowest responsible <br />bidder being T.A. Schifsky at $401,646.35. <br />Attorney Filla reported he reviewed the two drainage easements and the old bridal path <br />that may have been intended to be a horse path. He will be going to the County records <br />office to get recording documents. <br />Bud Talcott, Hill Trail resident, indicated the City didn't have a legal easement to go to <br />the lake so asked where the water will go. Tom Prew answered that the water flows <br />along the curbs and remains in the same location as it does now. Prew noted the City did <br />a topographic survey.

He said a new grade was set on the road so for the most <br />part the existing driveways will drain. The 100 year storm event will have the same <br />consequences now as before the road was reconstructed. <br />M/S/P Johnston/Siedow — to adopt Resolution No. 2003-066, awarding the Hill Trail <br />Reconstruction Project to T.A.
