The motion <br />carried unanimously (5-0). <br /> <br />D. Budeet Amendment-Operating Expenditures for the new Ramsey County <br />Maiutenance Facility <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Mr. Siddiqui noted the City's Operations and Maintenance department would be moving to the <br />new Ramsey County Public Works Facility on October 3, 2004. The City would occupy about <br />7.7% of the total space and share the total operating expenses accordingly based on this <br />percentage. He stated when the City entered into an agreement with Ramsey County, it was not <br />anticipated that the facility would be completed until late December, 2004. In anticipation of the <br />move in late December, no specific funds were budgeted for the operating expenses of this new <br />facility. Since the facility would be completed by the end of September and ready for occupancy <br />by early October, operating charges will be incurred from this date forward. Based on the <br />percentage of space occupied, the City would be charged $24,084 for the balance of this year. <br />Internally, these charges are allocated 2/3 to the enterprise fund (sewer and water) and 1/3 to the <br />general fund - Government Building. The source of funding for these expenditures would be the <br />carry-over funds from prior years. Staff recommended the Council amend its 2004 budget by <br />$24,084 to pay Ramsey County for the operating expenses for the Public Works facility. The <br />source of funding for these expenditures would be the carry-over funds from prior years and <br />charges would be allocated between the general and enterprise funds. <br /> <br />MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Grant seconded a <br />motion to approve amending the 2004 budget by $24,084 to pay Ramsey <br />County for the operating expenses for the Public Works Facility. The <br />source of funding for these expenditures to be carry-over funds from prior <br />year and charges will be allocated between the general and enterprise <br />funds. The motion carried unanimously (5-0). <br /> <br />6. Pavement Manaeement Proeram: 2005 - Authorize URS to Prepare a Feasibility <br />Report for the 2005 Pavement Manaeement Plan proiect. Red Fox/Grey Fox Area <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Mr. Moore stated the current 5-year CIP included the Red Fox Grey Fox neighborhood for <br />reconstruction and overlay in 2005. As discussed on August 13, 2004, the City should begin <br />preparation of the feasibility report and notification of area businesses of the planned <br />improvements soon to ensure the project could be designed early in 2005. Although there are no <br />private residences in this project area, they would need to coordinate with several businesses and <br />the project includes the use of state aid funds which require additional review by MnDOT prior <br />to bid. For these reasons and the desire to open bids before April, 2005, staff should begin the <br />feasibility report in September. Staff proposed contacting businesses immediately to let them <br />know of the project and either meet individually with property managers/owners or schedule a <br />public meeting as appropriate based upon their contacts. Staff was requesting the Council <br />
