City Council meeting of November 15, 1999 Page 4 140TH STREET/RICK'S LIQUOR DRAINAGE The Council considered a request from ECI Building Contractors that the City participate in the construction of a joint driveway to serve Rick's Liquor and the adjacent empty lot owned by the City, as well as the City Engineer's response to the request. The Council also considered a letter from the City Engineer recommending that the City consider installing a stormwater pipe along the south property lines of those lots abutting 140th Street. The estimated City cost for these two projects is $29,587.65, with funding available from the City's Bald Eagle Industrial Park improvement fund. The City Council may wish to consider assessing a portion of this cost against the vacant lot owned by the City, especially relating to the shared driveway cost. Tom Angus stated that the RCWD had verbally stated that the land could be drained to the existing wetlands, then later changed their position, requiring that a pond be constructed for runoff. Councilmember Barnes suggested that the City obtain a "no cost" easement along the length of Rick's Liquor south property line in the event property to the east will need to connect to the storm sewer. Haas made motion, Leroux seconded, that the City accept the recommendation of the City Engineer to share in the cost of the shared driveway with Rick's Liquor. All aye. Motion Carried. Barnes made motion, Leroux seconded, that the City Engineer be directed to perform engineering work necessary to obtain a bid to construct storm sewer pipe along the south property line of Rick's Liquor and obtain necessary permits.
