1 There was concurrence that the City Ordinance prohibited a local •2 shooting hunt, but some interest was demonstrated in a snaring program 3 during the goose season in September if that was what a majority of 4 St. Anthony lake residents wanted. 5 Mr. Childs agreed to try to find out just how many residents wanted the 6 City to participate in the 1989 DNR program and to ascertain just how 7 much interest there would be in a snaring program. He said he would 8 try to have a report ready for the Council' s April 26th meeting. 9 Short-Elliott-Hendrickson' s Low Bid Accepted for Foss Road Lift Station 10 Financing Study 11 The proposals from the above engineering firm and from Rieke-Carroll- 12 Muller Associates had been provided in the Council agenda packets. Mr. 13 Childs pointed out that the latter engineering firm had included a two 14 level rate system to address removal of foundation drains in their bid 15 which accounted for part of the $3 ,000 difference. Councilmember 16 Enrooth indicated the fact that SEH already had all the data 17 necessary to evaluate an area-wide assessment, a city-wide sewer rate 18 study, and a sewer maintenance fund also made it easier for them to do 19 the job for $2,000. 20 Council Action 21 Motion by Marks, seconded by Makowske to retain Short-Elliott- 2 Hendrickson, Inc. to assist the City in_ a rate study to help the City 23 determine how to pay for the capital costs as well as operating and 24 maintenance of the Foss Road Lift Station, with the cost of their 25 study not to exceed' $2 , 000 . 26 Motion carried unanimously. 27 Rieke-Carroll-Muller to Provide Additional Plans and Specifications for 28 Temporary Water Treatment System 29 The above had been agreed to during the Council' s Executive Session the 30 previous evening. Councilmember Marks stated it was quite clear to him 31 that the City needed to proceed with the project just as quickly as 32 possible. Just before the meeting had been convened, Mayor Sundland 33 had - reported receiving a call from Congressman Sabo' s office that 34 afternoon which indicated the Army was willing to give the City 35 $100 , 000 to connect with the new New Brighton water system. The 36 Mayor said he had then consulted with Dave McDonald of Briggs and 37 Morgan who said his recollection was that the connection cost had been 38 estimated at twice that amount. 39 Councilmember Marks commented that such a solution would be of very 40 little value to the City anyway since New Brighton had said a 41 connection would be impossible for at least two years during which the 42 City' s contaminant levels would certainly exceed the federal allowable �43 levels . 7
