ANTHONY REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION ----------------------------------------•-------------------------------- Date Submitted Type of Action Requested Agenda Item Number 5° Resolution. Reports-3b January 26, 1984 Ordinance Date Action Requested x Formal Action/Motion Title County Road .E Other February 14, 1984 Drainage ` ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1 TO: Mayor and Councilmen FROM: Larry Hamer, Public Works Director ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SUMMARY DISCUSSION OF SUBJECT: The Salvation Army contacted the City approx i- mately 2 years ago concerning a drainage problem at the north end of the Camp. Simply, the problem is the result of all the water north of the Camp draining through the property, which has caused erosion of it . Two counties , Anoka and Ramsey, the Cities of St. Anthony , New Brighton and Columbia Heights and the Salvation Army are directly involved with the problem area . Several meetings have taken place to discuss the problem and determine the best solution to correct it. It was agreed a feasibility and cost study would be conducted to ascertain exactly what would be involved and the related costs. • Discussion of a drainage problem in Columbia Heights, off Stinson Boulevard towards the lake , which also involves Salvation Army property, also took place between Col - umbia Heights , St. Anthony and the Salvation Army. At that time, it was agreed we were facing two separate drainage problems and they would be treated as such - Phase I would be the County Road E- project- and Phase II would be the Stinson Boulevard project . To this end , Phase I would 'require a consulting engineer to perform a feasibility and cost study and Phase II ' s study would be done by Columbia Heights Engineering Department. Phase Quotations were received from several consulting engineers . These quotes were pre- sented to the Salvation Army and the engineering firm of Short-Elliott-Hendrickson , Inc. was selected to do the study. The Salvation Army agreed to pay the costs of the study whether or not the project went into construction. The study was completed and the costs submitted to the Salvation 'Army, who, in turn , has requested a continuance of payment in order for their Property Committee to further assess the area in Phase I . Phase II The Salvation Army has decided not to participate in Phase II . They justifiably feel the project would not benefit them in any way, as they do not intend to sell any of their property which would be affected by its rehabilitation. Correspondence pertaining to Phases I and II has been attached. C TY MANAGER' S REVI,�E1W COMMENTS :
