<br />committee. Bids were open on June 15, 2021, and 11 bids were received. The base bids ranged
<br />from $3,009,890 to $3,311,000, with the low bidder being Schreiber Mullaney Construction Co.
<br />Denaway explained there were two alternatives in the project. One was to provide a sun control
<br />window film instead of the solar glazing, and staff recommended that alternate be rejected
<br />because the cost reduction was viewed as not worth it. Another alternate was to provide a 90 mil
<br />roof liner instead of the 60 mil roof liner, and staff recommended they accept that.
<br />Miron made motion, Klein seconded, to approve bids for the Lions Park Pavilion, including
<br />$13,000 in alternatives, and Award a Contract to Schreiber Mullaney Construction Co., Inc in the
<br />amount of $3,022,890.
<br />All Ayes. Motion carried.
<br />Schedule Public Hearing on Tax Abatement for July 19, 2021
<br />Park Planner Shayla Denaway summarized the bids the Council had just awarded. The
<br />downtown street and park improvement project was approximately $2.9 million in City funds
<br />and $3.3 million in park project funding. The pavilion bid was approximately $3,022,000. Excel
<br />had estimated the undergrounding of powerlines to cost $100,000. Legal, engineering,
<br />administrative, and financing costs came to $731,786 for the downtown project in general, and
<br />$601,890 for the park, which included the drafting of the construction documents and work
<br />already done. Estimates for items associated with the pavilion were at $286,000, and the
<br />playground equipment $499,907. Total for the street improvement project was $3,658,931 and
<br />the park project $7,809,871
<br />City Engineer Mark Erichson added that 147th Street was a State Aid street, so those
<br />improvements and the turn lanes at Oneka Parkway were reimbursable through those funds, and
<br />some of the grants for the CSAH 8 water reuse project would be used for both projects.
<br />Denaway concluded by saying that since the Council decided to move forward with the Lions
<br />Park Improvement Project, staff was recommending Council schedule a public hearing on tax
<br />abatement at the July 19, 2021, City Council meeting as preparation in considering of the sale of
<br />Tax Abatement Bonds to pay for the improvements.
<br />Weidt made motion, Petryk seconded, to schedule a public hearing on tax abatement at the July
<br />19, 2021, City Council meeting.
<br />All Ayes. Motion carried.
<br />Award of Bid for CSAH 8 Stormwater Reuse Project
<br />City Engineer Mark Erichson reviewed the bids for the CSAH 8 Stormwater Reuse Project and
<br />explained the project would reconnect irrigation systems and serve 22 acres along CSAH 8,
<br />Lions Park, Keystone Place, Hugo Gardens, Lions Park, and City Hall. Water would be pumped
<br />from the stormwater pond located in the NE quadrant of CSAH 8 and Oneka Parkway to the
<br />existing and future irrigation systems, conserving an estimated 14 million gallons of water
