Item No. 9G Meeting Date: September 27, 2004 Type of Business: CA WK: Work Session; PH: Public Hearing; CA: Consent Agenda; CB: Council Business City Administrator Review _______ City of Mounds View Staff Report To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Greg Lee, Director of Public Works Item Title/Subject: Resolution No. 6358 Awarding the Restoration Contract for the Silver View Sedimentation Pond Project Background: At the July 7, 2003 Work Session, Staff discussed the status of several aspects of the County Road H2 Project, including the inability to install two infiltration basins planned on the south side of County Road H2. Based on discussions with the Rice Creek Watershed District Director, the City was directed to submit a proposal to install a sedimentation pond near the northwest area of Silver View Pond. By doing so, the Watershed District allowed the elimination of the two required basins on the south side of County Road H2. By constructing the pond, the City potentially will not be required to expend funds to construct the two infiltration basins. The pond will also serve to enhance the water quality for Silver View Pond by removing sediment and nutrients from the currently untreated run-off of the parking lot and other sources from the west. The development of a feasibility report for the construction of a sedimentation pond at the west end of Silver View Pond is included in the City’s Local Water Management Plan. This pond is also included in the City’s Capital Improvement Program, scheduled for the year 2004. On July 14, 2003, the City Council authorized the preparation of a preliminary feasibility report for the Silver View Park Sedimentation Pond Project. On July 26, 2003, the City Council approved Resolution No. 6314 approving the Draft Feasibility Report, Waiving the Public Improvement Hearing, Ordering the Project, and Awarding the Excavation Contract for the Silver View Sedimentation Pond Project. A contract to perform said work was awarded to Sauter & Sons in the amount of $27,500. This work has now been completed.
