(CONT'D) Sather moved, seconded by Winiecki, that the <br /> authorization for selection of an architect for Fire <br /> Station #4 be continued to the regular Council meeting of April 27, 1987 at <br /> which time all Councilmembers will be present. Motion carried unanimously. <br /> (3-0 ) <br /> REPORT OF PUBLIC WORKS SUPERVISOR <br /> STREET SWEEPING Public Works Supervisor Raddatz reported that he had <br /> received one price quote of $5,640.00 for street <br /> sweeping from Allied Blacktop Company (120 hours at $47.00 per hour). He <br /> advised that $6,000.00 had been budgeted in 1987 for street sweeping and stated <br /> that the quote from Allied was comparable with the amount New Brighton had <br /> charged in the past for street sweeping. <br /> Sather asked why we were not using the City of New Brighton's equipment this <br /> year. <br /> Raddatz stated that the Public Safety/Works Committee had discussed <br /> accomplishing the street sweeping earlier than usual and had suggested asking <br /> for price quotes from other companies. <br /> . Moved by Sather, seconded by Winiecki, that Council <br /> approve the street sweeping contract with Allied Blacktop Company, and <br /> authorize the expenditure of $5,640.00 ($47.00 per hour for 120 hours). <br /> Motion carried unanimously. (3-0) <br /> PURCHASE OF TRACTORS Council was referred to Public Works Supervisor's <br /> PARKS & PUBLIC WORKS memorandum of 4/13/87 re: bids for tractors for Parks <br /> and Public Works Department. <br /> Raddatz recommended bidding the tractors separately and together to determine <br /> what type of price break we would receive if we purchased both at the same <br /> time. <br /> Sather asked if the Case tractor was budgeted for 1987 and the other tractor in <br /> 1988; also if purchased this year, when would we receive delivery. <br /> Raddatz stated that the Case tractor was budgeted for 1987 and, if Council <br /> determines only one tractor be purchased the Case tractor should be first. He <br /> further advised that the tractor may not be delivered until the end of this <br /> year, even if purchased early this summer. <br /> Sather moved, seconded by Winiecki, that Council <br /> authorize the advertisement for bids to replace the two tractors currently used <br /> by the Parks and Public Works Department, as outlined by the Public Works <br /> Supervisor in his memorandum of 4-13-87. Motion carried unanimously. (3-0) <br /> . STORM SEWER; NORTH Council was referred to Raddatz's memorandum of 4/13/87 <br /> SECTION TOWNHOUSES re: repair of the storm sewer in the north section of <br /> the Townhouses adjacent to the Village Hall. <br /> Raddatz reviewed the problems in this area and advised there are barricades <br /> placed there due to holes on both sides of the street. He explained that the <br /> pipe would be removed, the clay underneath the pipe would be replaced with <br /> sandt the pipe would be replaced and the street repaired. The total cost of <br /> the project would be $1,125.00 and Raddatz's recommended proceeding before the <br /> matter gets worse. <br /> Raddatz, in response to Council inquiry, advised storm sewer problems are <br /> difficult to project and therefore normally not specifically budgeted. <br /> . Moved by Sather, seconded by Winiecki, that Council <br /> approve the expenditure of $1,125.00 to reset the storm sewer pipe at the north <br /> section of the Townhouses, as outlined in the Public Works Supervisor's <br /> memorandum of 4-13-87.
