Motion by Mayor Haik and. seconded. by. Councilman Sundland to accept the proposal for Feasibility Study No. 80100. from Short-Elliott- Hendrickson, Inc. subject to the approval of the Roseville City Council. Motion carried unanimously. The Council also concurred with Mr. Fornell ' s recommendationthat no action be taken on the July 8th proposal from same firm for a feasibility study of street reconstruction of Anthony Lane. Scott Hess was present to discuss an , application -for a 3 .2 beer license for a retail operation; but the Council agreed with the Manager that the staff review the application before. Council con- sideration. Consideration was then given to .Mr. Soth's June. 30th memorandum dealing with the use of the -.property at- 2505 - 27th Avenue N..E. .for . • a two family dwelling. The attorney told the Council that he believed "if the dwelling was converted to a two family use after -3- Jul y, .i959, 3- July, .i959, it would not be a ,legal duplex" and he has informed the owner and his attorney that he sees the responsibility as theirs to provide information regarding . the property's use since the time it was built. Mr. Fornell will also check-. to ascertain whether the property has ever been homsteaded for only a one family use. A report will be made back to the Council when further information is available. The June 30th notice that ,the Metropolitan Council has received an application for federal funds for the rebuilding of County Road D from Silver Lake Road to I-35W in New .Brighton and _Roseville was , next considered. Mr. Fornell told Councilman Marks . the local share of the improvements will be . allocated to Roseville, New Brighton and Arden Hills. Because both the residents and school district representative had been fully informed. regarding the anticipated impact of the improvement on their properties during two well- attended informational meetings two years ago, Mr. Fornell suggested the City' s responsibility at this time should only be .to see the fact the application has. been.made is publicized. in .the Newsletter with property owners encouraged to refer any questions regarding the project to the Ramsey County Engineer. Mayor Haik told the Council the configuration for the intersection of County Road D and Silver Lake Road can be anticipated to resemble • that at the intersection of County Road C and Fairview in Roseville. Although she has been bothered -from the very first by the extent of the penetration onto private property, especially the necessity of taking the house on the southeast corner. of. the existing intersection, Mayor Haik said she doesn't see how this can be avoided if the City is to get a much needed upgrading of heavily travelled County Road D and provision of .better pedestrian access for the nursing- home and to the bus stops on Silver Lake Road. To Councilman Marks the project appears to be. overdesigned "for a traffic generation projected to nearly double by 2000 in- spite of an expected decrease in vehicular . travel because of the .energy shortage".. Hennepin. .County' s traffic projections for Silver Lake Road are- lower than Ramsey County' s Mr. - Fornell added. There was no .interest on the part of the Council to .lobby further for the project other than to publicize the application submission. Gary Ashley of Ashley Engineering presented his firm's inspection report on the Parkview building and facilities. He capsulized his report and answered the Council .questions. by reporting the building' s structural integrity .is fine so far as can be determined with this preliminary inspection. Only the roof decking on the auditorium presents a major problem. The conversion -of the- gym for a garage for the City Fire Department is feasible provided adequate modi- fications are made. The ceiling insulation was found to have an "R" rating of 10 with some heat loss. Because there is ventilation above the insulation and below the roof deck, no improvement can be expected from insulating the roof and Mr.' Ashley suggested the most cost efficient means of improving the thermal envelope of the building would be to insulate and panel glass blocks and install and repair storm windows._ 1 -4- • The average cash- outlay .in current dollars- for. replacement and repair of major. mechanical items is anticipated to. be $10.0,000 .with no major. outlays envisioned ,for the; next .two y,ears.. The projected cost of replacing the auditorium roof will- be $125 ,000 .with fire station. conversion- costs . around. $5.0,.000_ and .mi.scellaneous energy and other improvements estimated at $25:100.0. to- total $300,000 . Tom .McMullen of . Dis.trict #282' expressed the-.opinion .that the leases for the .building .over a 20. year. period_ would .probably .pay for the improvements. He said the current. leases will. bring in $15 ,000 not counting the City' s share. of..operating costs. In his July 7th memorandum addressing the acquisition of- Parkview as compared to. other options -for. providing City offices and. facilities, Mr. Fornell had recommended: the. Council -designate representatives to discuss...the ' disposition._of .P.arkview with the. School Board representatives, Cartwright and Hiebel. Motion by Mayor Haik and seconded by .Councilman.
