Hugo City Council Meeting Minutes for December 17,2018 <br /> Page 6 of 9 <br /> appointment of Scott Cregan to the Historical Commission with a three-year term to end on <br /> December 31, 2021. <br /> Award of Bid for Water Tower#4 <br /> City Engineer Mark Erichson provided background on the planning for water towers in Hugo <br /> and explained that increased development had created a need for a new tower. This tower would <br /> be located behind Well No. 6, and the existing 500,000 gallon water tower at Fenway Avenue <br /> and 130th Street would be eliminated in 2020 or 2021. Bids for the Water Tower No. 4 project <br /> were received on December 6, 2018. Four bids were received with the low bid being submitted <br /> by CB&I, LLC. Bids Ranged from $3,521,000 to $4,021,200. He explained the bidding <br /> documents included two alternates. Alternate No. 1 was for the removal of trees as outlined in <br /> the construction plans. The Public Works Department had requested this portion not be awarded <br /> as part of the construction contract because they intended to complete the work themselves this <br /> winter, saving $12,000. Alternate No. 2 was for an alternate integrator. The alternate integrator <br /> associated with Alternate 2 is a cost savings of$10,500. <br /> Miron made motion, Klein seconded, to award of a contract to CB&I, LLC for the base bid and <br /> Alternate 2 in the amount of$3,510,500. <br /> All Ayes. Motion carried. <br /> Approve Resolution for Bond Reimbursement <br /> Federal treasury regulations permit the City to issue bonds after construction begins on Water <br /> Tower 44 and use the proceeds to reimburse itself for expenses that have already been paid, <br /> subject to certain timelines. To comply with these regulations, the Council needed to approve a <br /> bond reimbursement resolution. Passage of this resolution would not require the City to issue <br /> bonds, but merely preserves the City's rights to do so. <br /> Klein made motion, Petryk seconded, to approve RESOLUTION 2018-52 ESTABLISHING <br /> PROCEDURES RELATING TO COMPLIANCE WITH REIMBURSEMENT BOND <br /> REGULATIONS UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. <br /> All Ayes. Motion carried. <br /> Update on 130th Street Improvement Project Right-of-Way Acquisition <br /> Staff had been preparing construction plans and specifications for the reconstruction of 130th <br /> Street from Highway 61 to Goodview Avenue. As part of the design, a roundabout was planned <br /> for 130th Street at Flay Avenue along with a pedestrian trail on the north side of 130th Street, <br /> and sanitary sewer forcemain upsizing. Easement acquisition needs had been identified in the <br /> southeast and southwest quadrants of 130th Street and Flay Avenue to accommodate the <br /> construction of this roundabout. Staff had also identified easement needs at the east end of 130th <br /> Street to allow for the realignment of 130th Street to connect with Goodview Avenue at a right <br /> angle, as the intersection is currently skewed. Temporary easements would be needed for access <br /> for construction and the planting of trees to screen the roundabout traffic. Meetings with <br /> property owners have been ongoing to identify any concerns they have. The cost of the <br /> easements from the property owners totaled $32,600.
