ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – FEBRUARY 18, 2020 6 <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Blomstrom stated the City Council discussed the KLID <br />Board resolution at the January 21, 2020 work session and requested staff to provide additional <br />information regarding funding for potential damage or loss of the pump or control cabinet in the <br />future. Staff provided insurance coverage information and existing easement boundaries in the <br />agenda packet. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden questioned why the City was responsible to mitigate the lake level. She <br />stated much of the lake is on private property. <br /> <br />Susan Johnson, Karth Lake Boardmember, explained she has lived on the lake for the past 30 <br />years. She indicated the City does own a section of land on the lake. She noted there was a <br />problem with the fact the lake was landlocked and as development occurred the lake level would <br />continue to rise higher and higher. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Blomstrom discussed the location of the riparian <br />properties on the lake, along with the boundary of the drainage and utility easement. He <br />commented further on how the pump worked to maintain the water level at an acceptable level <br />below the easement boundaries. <br /> <br />Ms. Johnson described the form and function of the Karth Lake Board. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant asked if the Council supported the City maintaining liability insurance over the <br />pump. The Council supported maintaining this liability. <br /> <br />Further discussion ensued regarding the bank stabilization and control panel installation. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Blomstrom described the work City staff could do to <br />stabilize the slope and noted fencing would assist in keeping children off the bank. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant asked if the Council supported the City setting up an annual levy for Karth Lake <br />Improvement District to assist in setting aside funds for a pump and control panel in the future. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes explained the expense for Option 1 was $13,000, which would be <br />assessed to the 41 to 44 properties over the next two years which would be approximately $150 <br />per year per property. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Blomstrom reported this was the case. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes asked if the Karth Lake District would support a $30 to $50 per year <br />assessment after first two initial years to assist with funding the future expenses for a pump and <br />control panel. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Blomstrom explained the Karth Lake Board would be <br />discussing this at their April meeting. <br /> <br />Ms. Johnson stated the Board was unable to discuss this topic at its last meeting. She <br />commented the Board has not agreed to fund a future pump and control panel. <br />
