LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JUNE 4, 1996 6. CITY ENGINEER'S REPORT A. Joint Powers Agreement Lake Elmo/Oakdale Joint Sewer Project The Council reviewed a draft Joint Powers Agreement prepared by the Lake Elmo and Oakdale Engineers and Attorneys. M/S/P Hunt/John - to approve the Joint Powers Agreement between the Cities of Lake Elmo and Oakdale for a joint sewer project, as presented, and authorize the Mayor and Administrator to execute the agreement on behalf of the City with the condition that Lake Elmo issue a construction contract for its portion of the project. (Motion passed 5-0). B. Update on stake placement on CSAH 13 At the last meeting there was a concern raised about the placement of stakes along CSAH 13 in preparation for the reconstruction project. Larry Bohrer reported the stakes appear to be about I V or so beyond the wire fence. He reviewed the stakes and also talked to the Public Works Dept. and those stakes represent the right-of-way, either the existing right-of-way or right-of-way that has been acquired for this project. No construction takes place beyond those stakes, but some construction does take place almost up to the stakes. C. Request from Olson Lake Trail Resident Administrator Kueffner reported a resident on Olson Lake Trail has a failing mound system and requested to hookup to Oakdale's sewer. The lot is 100' x 250' and the installer told him another mound system would not work. The resident thought some of his other neighbors might be interested in hooking up to Oakdale's sewer. M/S/P Hunt/Conlin - to direct the staff to respond to Phil Taylor indicating the City is interested in working with him and to investigate all options and have the City Engineer assess the situation and for the City to work jointly with Joe Kiesling, Tri-Lakes Association, in taking a poll of the area to find out what extent the problems are with systems and report back with options for resolution. (Motion passed 5-0). 7. PARKS/MAINTENANCE A. Survey for Maintenance Site Larry Bohrer reviewed the quotes from Barrett M. Stack and Folz, Freeman, Dupay & Assoc. for surveying the 15 acres on the Berschen site for the new maintenance facility and indicated both companies were equally qualified. M/S/P Hunt/Johnston - to direct the City Administrator to contact Folz, Freeman, Dupay & Assoc, and Barrett M. Stack that the job of surveying the 15 acres of the Berschen site for the new maintenance facility will be awarded to the one that can get it done the soonest and obtain a date of completion for job to be stated in the bid. If the timeline is the same for both survey companies, then the Council suggested placing the names in a hat and pick one company. (Motion passed 5-0). B. Update on Maintenance Building Councilman Hunt will be attending Wednesday's meeting at City Hall concerning a completed program for the new maintenance building. Onno VanDemmeltraddt stated he will be retiring August 1, 1996 and offered his services to work on the program for the new maintenance building and will try to attend Wednesday's meeting.
