After discussion, it was the <br /> consensus ofthose City Councilmembers present to include Alternate No.3 as <br /> part of the construction bid. <br /> Alternate No. A consisted of installation of a twelve inch (12") watermain from <br /> Hamline Avenue to City Hall, to accommodate future cross connections to the <br /> City of Shoreview for emergency purposcs. <br /> Public Works Director Stafford reported that he and City Administrator Lynch <br /> had met with representatives of the City of Shoreview regarding this option, but <br /> the City of Shoreview did not express any interest, due to the apparent prohibitive <br /> cost oftunneling under Lexington A venue. Without the cost sharing of the City <br /> of Shoreview, a twelve-inch line would not be feasible for Arden Hills to pursue. <br /> Mr. Stafford stated that a six inch (6") line would be sufficient for City Hall <br /> . purposes, but installation of an eight inch (8") line would allow for future <br /> expansion, and potential cross-connection to our own line.
