FISCAL IMPACT: Because this is only planned to serve as backup, there should be no fiscal impact. SUMMARY AND ACTION REQUESTED:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the contract with Washington County to provide backup services for Ski Trail Grooming as outlined in the attached contract. The contract specifies that there is no
base fee and the City only pays for services as they are provided. As part of its consent agenda, no formal motion is required. Should council decide to remove this item from the consent agenda, the recommended motion is as follows:
“Move to approve the agreement with Washington County for Ski Trail Grooming backup services.”
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY: In previous years, the City contracted with Washington County to provide
grooming services for Sunfish Lake Park.
In 2014, the City purchased its own grooming equipment. This agreement will only be used if our equipment fails or if the City is unable to perform the grooming. The City has no current expectation to require the County’s services.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Council approve the contract with Washington County to provide backup services for Ski Trail Grooming as outlined in the attached contract. As part of its consent agenda, no formal motion is required. Should council decide to remove this item from the consent agenda, the recommended motion would be as follows:
“Move to approve the agreement with Washington County for Ski Trail Grooming services.”
