<br /> ~ <br /> Arden Hills Council 3 May 9,1994 <br /> . looking to the City and Ramsey County to assist in <br /> funding the remaining $110,000. <br /> Malone noted that if the City would gain access to the <br /> property, the City would partially use these utilities, <br /> however, he would like the City to have some type of <br /> guarantee or contingency that the City would be able to <br /> build on this property at some future date, He further <br /> noted that the City had a policy on billing these types <br /> of utilities or any other capital improvements of that <br /> nature, and that 100% was normally assessed to the user. <br /> Malone further noted he would be in favor of the City <br /> funding a portion of the project if the City would be <br /> guaranteed that it would have access to develop a part of <br /> this property, <br /> Public Works Superintendent Winkel noted that the <br /> National Guard requested a four inch (4") force main and <br /> they would pump into the City's sewer line due to the <br /> fact that the National Guard's existing line is at a <br /> lower elevation than the City's sewer line. It had been <br /> suggested by Ramsey County to consider installing an <br /> eight inch (8") force main which could facilitate higher <br /> flow capabilities. <br /> . Mayor Sather noted that the City does not always have <br /> access to this property should a utility problem occur. <br /> If the utilities would be the responsibility of the City <br /> to maintain, the City would need access to handle any <br /> problems, preventive maintenance and other related <br /> issues. Mayor Sather further noted that the City had an <br /> obligation within their corporate limits to provide the <br /> accessibility to those kinds of services, however there <br /> would need to be a good faith effort on the part of the <br /> Department of Defense to offer some type of in-kind <br /> payment for these services. <br /> Council was asked whether this matter should be continued <br /> until the next Council meeting to allow staff to research <br /> the issues further. <br /> Malone noted that the City should probably indicate their <br /> interest in assisting the National Guard in pursuing the <br /> land they want for their maintenance facility. This <br /> would give the National Guard the opportunity to notify <br /> the Pentagon that the City of Arden Hills was willing to <br /> participate in the cost of this project, contingent upon <br /> the ability to co-locate maintenance facilities, <br /> . <br />
