City Council meeting of June 19, 1989 Page •._ based on the information provided by the: City assessor- last fall.. Mr. Langer has indicated that the responsibilities of his job, as a result of State legislation, has increased significantly, and that the increase requested is justified and warranted. Mr. Langer was present at the meeting and stated that because his costs Have risen (insurance, schooling, etc), he has made the request for the increase. The Council is well satisfied with Mr. Langer's job performance, but did not feel it would be appropriate to increase his fee now for something budgeted for in 1999. Atkinson made a motion to deny the Mr. Langer's request for an increase in his 1989 payment, and that the Council consider his request at 1990 budget time. Because of the Council's motion for denial, Mr. Langer stated that he was uncomfortable starting this year's work without corning to an understanding with the City. Councilman Jesinski requested that Mr. Langer submit an itemization of additional costs. Mayor Atkinson withdrew his motion. Atkinson made motion, McAllister seconded, to table the request of Frank Langer for an increase in his 1990 assessment fee until after Mr. Langer and City Administrator, Ken Huber, meet to discuss this request. All aye. Motion Carried. CIF' ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORIZATION On June 14, 1989, the City engineer and staff met with Valley Paving at a preconstruction conference to discuss the timing and activities that will take place this summer in conjunction with our CIF road project. It would appear from our discussions that this project is going to move very quickly as the contractor intends to be done with the paving of all streets by mid-August. In an effort to complete this project as quickly as possible, minimizing the inconvenience to Hugo residents, city staff is requesting Council authorization to make administrative decisions regarding the road project. Atkinson made motion, Jesinsk:i seconded, that the Council authorize the City Administrator to make the following administrative decisions regarding the City's CIF road project: 1. The City administrator, upon the recommendation of the City engineer, be authorized to approve change orders during the course of the CTP construction in an amount not to exceed 10% of the project cost. Said change orders to be ratified by formal Council action. 2. The City administrator, upon the recommendation of the City engineer, be authorized to designate temporary haul routes for trucks and equipment during the course of construction. 3. Laboratory testing of materials, and additional on-site inspections, be authorized during the course of project construction as deemed necessary by the City engineer. All aye. Motion Carried.
