RPT; OAK AVENUE Council was referred to the feasibility report for proposed Oak Avenue Storm Sewer Improvement, as prepared by Engineer Peters, dated 4-21-89. the # Peters reviewed the proposed storm sewer construction, estimated assessments and project schedule. He advised the estimated cost of the improvement is $17,753; the owner of 1680 Oak Avenue has agreed to pay for the driveway repair costs, which is $3,078.00. Peters explained the estimate includes 10% for construction contingencies and 25% for legal, engineering and miscellaneous administrative costs. Counci1member Hansen questioned if all the properties listed on the "mock" assessment roll would benefit from the improvement. Peters explained the contour maps indicate water from all the properties listed drain toward 1680 Oak Avenue. Councilmember Malone questioned if the extent of the assessment for 1680 Oak Avenue would be the bituminous surface repair cost. Peters stated that is correct; the resident at 1680 Oak Ave. does not have any property that drains through the system. . Hansen moved, seconded by Malone, that Council adopt Resolution No. 89-21, Accepting Feasibility Report and Setting Public Hearing For Storm Sewer Improvements To Serve 1680 Oak Avenue And Adjacent Areas (ST-B9-2), and set the date of Public Hearing for May 8, 1989.

DEVLPMT PROJECT AREAS Council was referred to a memorandum from Planner Bergly dated 4-24-89, relative to identifying the proposed project area for potential Tax Increment Financing Districts. James Casserly, Financial Consultant, reviewed the project areas as discussed at the Council meeting of 4-17-89, and one additional area in the southwest corner of Arden Hills. He also reviewed Exhibit 2, which shows how the areas identified as A, B,and C could be combined into one contiguous area merely by adding the right-of-way of 1-694 and the area between County Road F and 1-694; he added this approach may be advantageous to the City. . Casserly and Planner Bergly recommended Council identify the Project Area for potential TIF Districts as outlined on Exhibit 2; he questioned if Council wished to add any additional areas. Councilmember Malone concurred with Exhibit 2 and suggested inclusion of the area bounded by Pine tree Dive, Lexington Avenue and Harriet Avenue; he explained the Arden Plaza Mall is located in this area. Councilmember Hansen suggested the area which includes the Arden Manor Mobile Home facility and the Big Ten Supper Club. Casserly advised there is no negative impact by including the two areas recommended by Council; he normally advises cities be as inclusive as possible and added the project area may be amended in the future to include other parcels as deemed necessary. After discussion, Council concurred to direct Casserly and Bergly to prepare a map identifying the areas noted on Exhibit 2 and the two additional areas recommended for inclusion by Council as the "Project Area" for potential TIF Districts. .
