City Council meeting of October 16, 1995 Page 2 reviewing this request. As a portion of 128th Street crosses a wetland, it would be difficult for the City to establish a pedestrian path along this easement without incurring substantial cost in replacing the lost storm water storage capacity and in wetland mitigation. Miron made motion, Goiffon seconded, to adopt RESOLUTION 95-16, A RESOLUTION VACATING A ROADWAY EASEMENT AS PER PETITION OF WILSON TOOL INTERNATIONAL. Because only four members of the Council were present, and it was obvious two members were against the proposed Resolution, the following motion was made: Miron made motion, LaValle seconded, to table this request until the Council meeting of November 6, 1995. All aye. Motion Carried. City Engineer, Tom Angus, will provide the Council with a railroad crossing update at the meeting of 11/06/95. WOODS OF BALD EAGLE (FINAL FLAT APPROVAL). The Council considered the final plat for the development known as the Woods of Fuld Eagle. The plat has under gone revision since preliminary plat approval was given to the project. These revisions were made in response to comments received from the Environmental Assessment Worksheet, and a redelineation of the wetlands on the site which occurred in September of this year. There was a long discussion regarding the need for pedestrian/bike paths along the collector street, maintenance of drainage easements/ditches, and the status of obtaining the Oakshore Park land for parks. Miron made motion, Barnes seconded, to table final plat approval for Woods of Fuld Eagle until the Council receives answers to their concerns. All aye. Motion Carried. REVISED HOMESTEAD AVENUE POND IMPROVEMENT ESTIMATE At the Council's direction, the City Engineer prepared a cost estimate for constructing a drain -tile system from the outflow of the Homestead Avenue pond to the vicinity of Rice Lake. The project cost is estimated at $10.500 for a 12" drain tile. and $8,000 for construction of a new outlet from the pond, for a total construction cost of $18,500. Easement acquisition, engineering, administrative, legal, and incidentals will need to be added to this estimate. Miron made motion, LaValle seconded, to schedule an informational meeting on Wednesday, November 8, 1995, at 7:30 PM for residents involved in the Homestead Avenue Pond improvement project. All aye. Motion Carried.
