Chil-ds, City Manager <br /> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ <br /> T. <br /> SUMMARY DISCUSSION OF SUBJECT: Well f{3, although not being used at the present <br /> time, remains contaminated and the levels have slowly increased over the months . <br /> We previously completed studies in which the cost of carbon filtration, deepening <br /> of Well #3 and construction of new wells was given. We also discussed the possi- <br /> bility of connecting to the water supply of a neighboring community. Current <br /> Minneapolis charges are 94t per hundred cubic feet (CCF) and Roseville buys softened <br /> water from St. Paul at 40C, per CCF. Our rate is presently 40� per CCF. <br /> The EPA study regarding temporary measures determined that connection to Roseville <br /> is feasible, but did not give costs, or preliminary engineering information needed <br /> to compare the total cost of filtration or deeper wells with the cost of buying <br /> from our neighbors . We have spoken with Roseville and St. Paul water and believe <br /> that we could buy adequate amounts of water from them. We do not know the esti- <br /> mated cost of making connection to Roseville and need that information prior to <br /> making a final recommendation to the Council regarding corrective action. <br /> ALTERNATIVES : <br /> RECOMMENDATION: We have received two quotations for a feasibility report for <br /> connection to the Roseville water system. Staff recommends approval of Short- <br /> Elliott-Hendrickson. at $2,950 (the low bid) . <br /> • CITY MANAGER' S REVIEW:. . COMMENTS : . <br /> 1�a".fn- <br />
