Mounds View City Council. September 26, 2005 <br />Regular Meeting Page 11 <br />• language and found no issues with the subdivision. The Public Works Department suggested the <br />lot line of Tract C and D be lined up with the property to the south but the survey monuments <br />have already been set and the mylars for the registered land survey produced so Staff <br />recommends the City accept it as submitted. He advised that Mr. Olson has consented to <br />easements and park dedication is not applicable since no new lots are being created. Director <br />Ericson explained that a public hearing was not required but Staff did notify adjacent property <br />owners and no comments were received. Staff and the Planning Commission recommend <br />approval and Mr. Olson is in the audience to answer questions, if any. <br />Mayor Marty asked about the restriction recommended for Tract D (that it is not buildable) and <br />how enforceable it would be since it would qualify as an independent lot. Director Ericson stated <br />that is correct and is why it is important to include that restriction since it does not front on a full <br />right-of--way. He stated his understanding that deed restrictions are difficult to get rid of and at <br />some point, if Knollwood Drive is improved and goes through, then the property owner at that <br />time can request the City to remove that deed restriction. Until that time, the restriction assures <br />that the property cannot be built upon except for typical accessory uses. <br />Mr. Olson stated he has nothing to add and asked the Council to approve the request. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Thomas/Stigney. To waive the reading and adopt Resolution 6636, a <br />Resolution Approving a Minor Subdivision of 7851 Spring Lake Road. <br />• Ayes-5 Nays-0 Motion carried. <br />E. Resolution 6601 Awarding a Construction Contract for the Emergency <br />Vehicle Preemption (EVP) Installation Project <br />Public Works Director Lee stated the City received and opened six bids on September 20, 2005 <br />for the construction contract for the Emergency Vehicle Preemption (EVP) Installation Project. <br />The low bid was from Eagan Companies, Inc. at $59,500. The engineer's estimate was $60,000. <br />He reviewed that Staff did receive quotes about a month ago but they were rejected since the <br />dollar amount was in excess of $50,000 and the City Attorney recommended competitive bids be <br />received. Public Works Director Lee recommended the Council adopt the resolution awarding a <br />construction contract to Eagan Companies, Inc. and entering into a maintenance contract with <br />Ramey County for the EVP systems. <br />Councilmember Flaherty commented on the language of the County's contract that indicates all <br />the costs are to the City of Mounds View and that the City is always liable. He noted he found <br />no dollar figure reflected. Public Works Director Lee explained that the devices would be <br />owned, operated, and .maintained by the City which is why the Ramsey County contract reflects <br />that the City. is responsible for the cost and liability. <br />Councilmember Flaherty asked if the Ramsey County vehicles would be tied into this system. <br />Public Works Director Lee answered in the affirmative. <br />• <br />
