Hugo City Council Meeting Minutes for August 17, 2015 <br />Page 4 of 7 <br />Award of Bid for the Bald Eagle Lake Dam Reconstruction Project <br />At its August 3, 2015 meeting, Council was provided an update by City Engineer Jay Kennedy <br />on the status of the funding for the Bald Eagle Lake Dam Reconstruction Project and informed <br />Council that the DNR and MnDOT have provided funds to close the funding gap. Council <br />approved the amended grant agreement with the DNR, and staff now recommends Council <br />award the bid for the project. City Engineer Jay Kennedy informed Council that three bids were <br />received on June 25, 2015 with Pember Companies being the low bidder. <br />Staff worked to get the project fully funded. And the DNR revised their permit relating to <br />ongoing maintenance. The city will not be maintaining it or owning it. The City will be <br />notifying residents when the road will be closed <br />Petryk made motion, Klein seconded, to approve the award of bid to Prember Companies in the <br />amount of $616,090.97. <br />All Ayes. Motion carried. <br />Council thanked staff for all their work on the project. <br />Discussion on the Washington County Library Strategic Planning Questionnaire <br />City Administrator Bryan Bear discussed with Council the development of Washington County's <br />strategic plan for future library services in the County. A questionnaire had been provided to <br />local officials in Washington County to gain feedback as part of the library strategic planning <br />process. Bryan explained that the County will be holding in depth stakeholder retreats for <br />anyone who may be interested. Bryan offered staff's assistance to complete and submit the <br />questionnaire on behalf of the City Council; however, Council decided to do it separately to <br />provide a broader response. <br />Chad Hanson, 14195 Irish Avenue, talked about the lack of internet access in the rural areas and <br />how they have to pay hundreds of dollars for a Wi-Fi connection. Klein explained how the City <br />is trying to get internet to the rural areas. <br />No formal action was taken. <br />Update on Irish Avenue Park Neighborhood Meeting <br />At their meeting of August 12, 2015, the Parks Commission had a neighborhood meeting with <br />residents that live near Irish Avenue Park. Discussions included the temporary use of a radio <br />controlled car track and future uses. City Administrator Bryan Bear explained that the Parks <br />Commission had approved the temporary use of a portion of Irish Avenue Park as a radio <br />controlled car track. This involved the moving of some dirt near the entrance of the park, and the <br />track was restricted to electronic cars only. Neighbors questioned this and were invited to attend <br />the August 12, 2015 Parks Commission to discuss it. At the meeting, neighbors voiced concerns <br />regarding noise from the track and others things that happened in the park besides the use of <br />radio controlled cars. <br />
