He noted there have <br />been almost as many name suggestions as responders and most suggestions did not have more <br />than two or three votes. <br /> <br />Mayor Probst stated he would support the suggestion of Councilmember Malone to have Ms. <br />Schacht head up a task force with a decision being made at the Council meeting of April 13, <br />1998. The Council concurred. <br /> <br />Councilmember Aplikowski stated another name that received several suggestions included the <br />word "Valentine." Ms. Schacht stated their neighborhood used to be called Valentine Hills <br />before Arden Hills became a City but, due to the overuse of that word, she no longer supports it. <br /> <br />Councilmember Malone concurred and noted the difficulty for the Fire Department to respond <br />when a street name is overused. <br /> <br />The Council requested a response from Ms. Schacht at the April 13 meeting at which time final <br />action can be taken. <br /> <br />B. <br /> <br />Resolution #98-32, Accepting the Price Quote and Authorizing the Execution of <br />Contract in the Matter of the Construction of a City Trail-Culvert <br /> <br />Ms. Cindy Walsh, Parks and Recreation Director, explained that the Council is asked to adopt <br />Resolution #98-32 which would accept the price quote for the trail culvert between Hamline <br />A venue and Cummings Park and authorize the execution of the contract to construct the City <br />trail culvert. She advised that price quotes were received from six contractors and staff is <br />recommending the project be given to the lowest qualified quoter, Lametti and Sons, at a cost of <br />$12,675. She noted that she hopes the project can be completed during the summer months <br />when the least amount of impact to the trail will occur. <br /> <br />Councilmember Malone noted there are no railings on the bridge. Ms. Walsh stated this is <br />correct and the width will be increased by two feet, to a total width of ten feet. <br /> <br />Mr. Greg Brown, Consulting Engineer, reported that it will meet standard slopes on both sides as <br />well. <br /> <br />MOTION: <br /> <br />Councilmember Malone moved and Councilmember Hicks seconded a motion to <br />adopt Resolution #98-32, Accepting the Price Quote and Authorizing the <br />Execution of Contract in the Matter of the Construction of a City Trail-Culvert. <br />The motion carried unanimously (5-0). <br /> <br />C. <br /> <br />Resolution #98-31, Determining Assessed Cost oflmprovement and Ordering <br />Preparation of Proposed Assessment Roll in the Matter of 1998 Street <br />Improvements <br /> <br />Mr. Stafford explained the City is requested to adopt Resolution #98-31 to determine the <br />
