i LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 15, 1988 PAGE 3 necessary to construct one additional. monitoring well at the Oakland School. The approved plans and specifications called for three groundwater monitoring wells at the Oakland School. The wells were to yield a minimum of 2 gallons per minute of sampleable water. The top of the well screens were to terminate at the top of the groundwater table. Monitoring Wells No. 2 and 3 were successfully completed. Monitoring Well No. 1 encountered tight clay at the groundwater table and would not yield water at a sufficient rate to sample. Since Well No. 1 is not sampleable, a new Well No. 4 must be constructed. A unit price for Groundwater Monitoring Well is included in the original bid proposal. Construct groundwater monitoring well, 1 EA @$1,540.00 = $1,540.00 Change Order #8 Bohrer reported that Change Order No. 8 is necessary to add the Twin Point Tavern back into the program. The Twin Point Tavern was identified as having a need for improvement in the Facilities Plan. Because most of the lot was parking lot, the Tavern owner indicated that he would buy a portion of the adjacent vacant lot for his drainfield. Construction plans were prepared accordingly and were shown as Old Village Remote Site F on sheet 6 of the Part D plan set. Shortly before bidding, the land purchase negotiation fell through and the Tavern asked to be taken out of the bidding package. The Tavern owner has now reconsidered the use of his parking lot for drainfield purposes. He had his own soil tests performed and a suitable location was found. The purpose of this change order is to construct a new septic system in a revised location. Unit prices for each work item have been included in the original bid proposal. Cost Summary: Subtotal Grant Eligible $12,255.50, Subtotal Grant Ineligible $100..00 = Grand Total of This Change Order $12,355.50.

They told him . this �s their last chance, but the Twin Point decided they didn't want to be in it. It seemed to Rose, that we have turned other people down at that point, and she hated to see him come back in after all this has been decided. Bohrer explained that the assessment roll has been recalculated with them in there. Without their participation it would slightly decrease the assessments to other people because the fixed costs are distr:buted over one more party. Bohrer explained that the Twin Point Tavern was .in need in the very begirting. It isn't like somebody decided now that they would come forward and ask to be in the program. They were always in the program. Councilman Johnson asked can other failing systems be added if there
