The size and cost of the project will be reduced if the <br /> existing on site wetland area is increase by Ramsey SWCD (Tom Peterson). <br /> Several points to consider when reviewing this cost estimate: <br /> 1. There is extra wetland being constructed to be used for future projects or be transferred (sold) to <br /> another party for their wetland mitigation. <br /> 2. On-site removals are included. The City may wish to remove the play ground equipment, <br /> benches, building, and timbers prior to the excavation which will reduce the cost. <br /> 3. Concrete pipe was used. It may be possible to use CMP or HDPE pipe which will reduce the cost. <br /> 4. Excavation costs assumed that it will be hauled off-site. If a local deposal site is available the cost <br /> can be greatly reduced. <br /> 5. There is 15 percent contingency that may or may not be used depending on the final pond <br /> configuration. <br /> The final wetland boundary determination will need to be made this spring. I discussed this with <br /> Kelly Betendorf and she indicated that in about 2 weeks, if the weather holds, this issue can be <br /> resolved. I will contact Kate Drewry with RCWD and inform her that we would like to get this issue <br /> resolved as soon as possible. <br /> Once the final wetland boundary has been completed, we will finish the permit process and bid <br /> documents so the project can be advertised. The add for bid could be authorized at the second <br /> Council meeting in April and the award of the contract at the second Council meeting in May if all <br /> goes as scheduled. The construction time for the project should be about 2 weeks. <br /> If you have any other question please call be at 490-2026. <br /> RJK/rjk <br /> Attachment <br /> An Aliirmndre Action. <br /> Equal Opporn.niry Employer <br />
