Mounds View City Council March 10, 2003 Regular Meeting Page 11 n Mayor Linke asked why there was a need for another agreement. Public Works Director Lee indicated that this project was started before he came to the City and he has found that there was no letter agreement for anything other than the original drawings. Mayor Linke asked if Staff recommended that the engineers be responsible for the inspection of the water tower. He then said that he is used to seeing all of these services wrapped into the original proposal and not in two pieces. He further commented that he is not pleased with SEH at this time as they are not following through with their responsibilities and it is costing the City money. Public Works Director Lee indicated he understood the concern and said he is working with SEH to bring things to where they should be. Mayor Linke suggested that the City may need to discuss some free work to pay for the screw ups in the past as the City is losing money because of SEH's failure to do what they are paid to do. Council Member Marty agreed and said that he is not happy with some of the things that are coming back from SEH for more money. Council Member Stigney asked if it would be beneficial to postpone approval to allow Staff to discuss the matter with SEH. Public Works Director Lee indicated there was time to postpone as the work would not begin until September. MOTION/SECOND: Stigney/Marty.
