LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES APRIL 18, 1989 PAGE 10 <br />Bohrer explained that much of the maintenance the city will be doing this <br />year will be under contract and paying for a lot of it with our state aid <br />maintenance money. $2.5,000 have been budgeted as part of the maintenance <br />budget for patch and overlay for this year. There was also a few thousand <br />dollars carried over from last year. Bohrer suggested if the cost does <br />exceed the estimate that was put together for the Public Hearing and would <br />cause the assessment to go over, a few thousand dollars could be used from <br />the patch and overlay fund. <br />Councilman Williams would be in favor of covering the overage with the <br />budgeted patch and overlay fund. <br />Councilman Graves asked why the increase in the bid and did not want it <br />viewed as a precedent that the city will take care of any money <br />difference. Graves also had a concern with allocating funds from the <br />general maintenance portion of the budget because he wants to make sure <br />they can take care of the rest of the city out of that fund. <br />Bohrer responded that 33rd St. is unique in where we have only one side <br />with houses that can be assessed and every lot is a corner lot. It was <br />difficult to come up with an assessment formula that was fair. <br />Prior to the next meeting, the Maintenance Foreman and City Engineer will <br />formulate all the road needs in the City. His intention is not to cut any <br />portion short. <br />D.

(See Memorandum). <br />Before any dates are set, Hunt suggested to wait until the next City <br />Council meeting when the planner will. submit his review and contact will <br />be made with Public Financial Services. <br />10.
