(Refer to the letter from Jim <br />Driessen.) The City Council expressed support of the proposal so long as it was explicitly <br />understood that the City was not liable for the maintenance of the aerator. The City Attorney <br />prepared an Amended and Restated Easement Agreement (attached) addressing costs, <br />liability and maintenance. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br /> <br />Approve Resolution 7160 Authorizing the Execution of the Amended and Restated Easement <br />Agreement Between the City of Mounds View and Medtronic, Inc. to permit the installation <br />and operation of a pond aerator and water fountain. <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />________________________ <br />James Ericson <br />Interim City Clerk / Administrator <br /> <br />
