This special City Council meeting was called to continue discussion of the JD2 culvert
replacement project.
SITE CONTROL RESPONSIBILITY FOR CULVERTS (a), 1571H STREET & 165TH
STREET
The RCWD Managers discussed merits of whether they could discuss issues beyond the site
control responsibility. After much discussion, the Board's attorney, Chuck Holtman, and City
Attorney Dave Snyder agreed the Board could discuss the JD2 culvert replacement project and
site control. The RCWD wants the City to take over site control of the culverts and 157* Street
and 165h Street, since Jay Bros is still providing it. After discussion, WSB Water Resource
Engineer Pete Willenbring presented a Power Point presentation of the project. Many questions
were asked by the Board and City Council. In general, both the Board and Council were
supportive of Pete's proposed solution.
RCWD Board: Harvey Karth made motion, Barbara Haake seconded, to approve a design build
solution proposed by Pete Willenbring.
All aye. Motion Carried.
Both Board and Council agreed that a joint effort is needed to finish the project. Attorneys were
directed to prepare a formal agreement for a solution for the next joint meeting.
Miron made motion, Granger seconded, to schedule a second meeting at 8:30 am on Friday,
October 22, 2004, to discuss the JD2 culvert replacement project, restoration of Hardwood
Creek/JD2 project, and other related issues.
All aye. Motion Carried.
GENERAL UPDATE ON RESTORATION OF HARDWOOD CREEK/JD2
