ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL— APRIL 30, 2001 ' 12 <br /> H. Resolution 901-10, "Resolution regarding Meeting Ending Time for City-Related <br /> Meetings". <br /> Mr. Lynch explained this resolution would set standard meeting times and set a standard of 10:00 <br /> p.m. for all meetings to end. <br /> Councilmember Larson stated they should amend the resolution and not set a commencement <br /> time. He noted they should only require all city meetings should end by 10:00 p.m. <br /> Councilmember Aplikowski asked if this is a requirement for all city meetings. She stated her <br /> concern is that they should ask the committee members how they feel about it. She noted the <br /> Planning Commission meetings frequently go past 10:00 p.m. <br /> Councilmember Larson stated he thinks this is an instance were they are setting a policy for the <br /> committees. He noted otherwise it places a burden on citizens to not be home by 10:00 p.m. He <br /> added it is also good for staff. He stated also the best decisions are not made when everyone is <br /> tired. He noted it affects a lot of people. <br /> MOTION: Councilmember Larson moved and Councilmember Grant seconded a motion to <br /> approve the Resolution#01-10 regarding meeting Ending Time for City—Related <br /> Meetings as amended to strike the language "that begin at 7:30 p.m.,". The <br /> motion carried unanimously (5-0). <br /> I. Fire Station No. 1 Roof Repairs, Lake Johanna Volunteer Fire Department, <br /> Adjustment of Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) Projected Expenditures <br /> Mr. Lynch explained the Lake Johanna Fire Departments approach regarding roof repairs. He <br /> stated Fire Chief Scott showed staff the rust resulting from the leaking roof. He noted the <br /> original portion of the roof that was not replaced is leaking. He added there is also not sufficient <br /> drainage from the northern portion of the roof. He stated the roof drains are not of a sufficient <br /> size. He noted the replacement cost is $18,000. He added the Building Inspector says $5,000 is <br /> enough to add a larger roof drain to solve the problem. He suggests doing this work in exchange <br /> for the bay floor resurfacing that was scheduled. He stated the bay floor project would be <br /> adjusted to 2004. <br /> Mayor Probst asked if they are redoing the insulation as well. Mr. Post responded he did not <br /> think they were adding any R-value in the roof. <br /> Councilmember Aplikowski stated $ 50,000 sounds like a lot for a flat roof. Mr. Post responded <br /> the City spent$ 45,000 for maintenance garage roof last year. <br /> MOTION: Councilmember Larson moved and Councilmember Aplikowski seconded a <br /> motion to approve staff's recommendation to expend an amount not to exceed <br /> $25,000 to replace the Lake Johanna Volunteer Fire Department Roof Repairs and <br /> to reschedule the resurfacing of the bay floors at that facility. The motion carried <br /> unanimously (5-0). <br />
