City. He stated there are some sizeable amounts being considered, and he thought this would be the way to go. Mayor Coughlin requested a motion to extend the meeting for no more than one-half hour. MOTION/SECOND: Quick/Stigney. To Extend the Council Meeting For No More Than and Up To One-half Hour. Ayes - 5 Nays - 1 (Coughlin) Motion carried. Mayor Coughlin stated it was his understanding that, until the entire MSA system is certified, the maintenance dollars can not be utilized on any road, except a designated MSA road. Director of Public Works stated that the maintenance dollars could be used anywhere. He stated, theoretically, they are for the maintenance of the MSA roads. He stated they would be for the seal coating, and every MSA road does not require seal coating every year. He stated they do striping, plowing, and patching, but they do not seal coat every year, therefore, some of that money is also put into the street construction fund for capital, and utilized on any roads that require it. He stated, while this is a decision that would probably have to be lived with forever, County Road I was currently an MSA road, and would maintain the City's certification for quite some time. He stated that another street might not. He stated there maybe some variances that might be allowed on other streets to bring them closer to the standard, but they were considering two roads that have just . undergone extensive reconstruction that they hoped would last for a very long time. Mayor Coughlin inquired if the resolution contained a stipulation indicating that the segment of County Road I would be added as an MSA status turnback. Director of Public Works Ulrich stated it did. Mayor Coughlin stated he had some misgivings regarding the addition of these roads to the MSA system for the same reasons the Chair of the Streets Policies Committee had indicated. He stated he was concerned in regard to the certification of the road, although he would acknowledge the road had just been redone and would probably last for some time to come.
