. -17- <br /> 30, some 24 to 36 inch wide, trees which might be lost <br /> with the construction. <br /> Makowske - asked what other projects the City might be needing the <br /> MSA allotments for if this project depleted the City' s <br /> accumulation the next few years. <br /> Hamer - City is facing its share of replacing the 37th/Stinson <br /> intersection and might have to be looking at the poor <br /> condition of Wilson Street, the only other MSA street <br /> which hasn' t been reconstructed. <br /> Childs - indicated the City would not lose any of its MSA alloca- <br /> tion as long as the project is done before the summer <br /> of 1988. <br /> Enrooth - estimated if the City waited until 1988 to do the <br /> project, and if the prices still held, the shortage <br /> would only be from $60,000 to $80,000, $30,000 of which <br /> could be recovered from assessments. <br /> Marks - agreed that would leave time to seek a variance to <br /> build a 32 foot street which would cost from $30,000 to <br /> • $40,000 less to build and which would save the trees at <br /> the same time. <br /> Ranallo - indicated if Park Board agreed to replace their own <br /> trees which are endangered elms, the City could proceed <br /> with a 36 foot street this year. If they don' t, the <br /> savings in construction costs for a 32 foot street <br /> would almost match the cost of getting the money to pay <br /> for the project. <br /> Makowske - saw some value in getting that rough street surface <br /> replaced as soon as possible. <br /> Marks - agreed this project had not been given the highest <br /> priority but perceived it would be nice to get a drive- <br /> able street. <br /> Staff was directed to contact the Park 'Board and make an evaluation of <br /> the options presented by the engineer for paying for the project and to <br /> place the matter on a future Council agenda. It was agreed that the <br /> cemetery would be assessed and Mr. Childs indicated he was certain <br /> they would be glad to get the roadway improved and might agree to not <br /> having a public hearing to expedite the project. <br /> Requested Backhoe Equipment Approved for Public Works Department <br /> • Motion by Ranallo, seconded by Marks to approve the low quotation of <br /> $6,3456. 00 from Ziegle, Inc. for the purchase of a new backhoe mounted <br />
