answer questions concerning specifics of the project and financing thereof.

J.1 Approve Recommendation from Parks Commission Rel4arding Goodview Avenue Property At the City Council meeting of September 19, 2016 the Parks Commission was directed to hold a neighborhood meeting about the future of the City -owned property at Goodview Avenue. Youth have built pedal bike jumps at the 2.34 acre property and there have been complaints from the adjacent property owners about the youth using the property. A neighborhood meeting was held at the Parks Commission meeting of November 9, 2016. Several residents attend and shared a range of views from having fond memories of using the bike track to anger over the littering, bad behavior, and damage to the property. The Parks Commission directed staff to remove brush on the property and to make other improvements to improve visibility. They felt that there was value in continuing to let the public use the property, including the bike track. They discussed the potential uses of the property when the planned trail is constructed on the west side of Goodview Avenue. At their meeting of May 17, 2017 the Parks Commission recommended, in a unanimous vote, that the property remain city -owned and available for public use. K.1 Beaver Ponds Sewer Rehabilitation Proiect An 8" sanitary sewer that serves approximately 150 homes within the Beaver Ponds development has backed up on 2 separate occasions resulting in flooding and damage to the basements of four properties. Since the 2nd backup, Public Works has cleaned the main multiple times and is checking on flows daily. The sanitary sewer segment in question was directionally drilled though the wetland in the late 1990's and connects to the sewer within 130th Street. This segment of sanitary sewer contains multiple sags in the sewer pipe, resulting in restricted flow as solids build and block flow. Staff is treating this as an emergency repair and have televised the sewer, conducted soil borings, conducted a gopher one call and met with contractors regarding the best means to correct the failing sanitary sewer. The repair is in a challenging location as the sewer pipe is within a wetland and extends under a Koch pipeline. Staff wanted to keep Council apprised of this situation and request authorization from Council to consider this an emergency repair and forgo the public bidding process (if necessary) to expedite the repair. Staff would still receive quotes to complete this work.
