Intersection improvements throughout the city of St. Anthony Village. 16 <br /> 17 <br />Mr. Messner noted the cost to cure element is something different from our typical City 18 <br />projects. Cost to cure is the cost to reimburse residents for damages or replacement of fences, 19 <br />retaining walls, trees, or other items located within the limits of construction for the Highway 20 <br />Safety Improvement Project that the City will not replace with the project. On typical city 21 <br />projects, St. Anthony Village would replace and restore items that were removed by the project. 22 <br />Landowners will be compensated for the losses under the Federal rules, and the homeowner will 23 <br />replace trees and fences as they desire. 24 <br /> 25 <br />The project will commence during the construction season in 2016. Appraisals totally $105,075 26 <br />were obtained for easements. He provided a list of the parcels and total compensation. 27 <br /> 28 <br />Councilmember Stille asked why easements were needed for this street reconstruction. Mr. 29 <br />Messner stated work needs to be done into the existing right-of-way. This is necessary to get the 30 <br />federal grant. Mayor Faust noted if any cure is necessary, the Federal grant will reimburse the 31 <br />residents. 32 <br /> 33 <br />Motion by Councilmember Brever, seconded by Councilmember Jenson, to adopt Resolution 15-34 <br />055 a resolution Authorizing Acquisition of Easements for the Highway Safety Improvement 35 <br />Program. 36 <br /> 37 <br />Motion carried unanimously. 38 <br /> 39 <br />B.
