The possibility <br />of a delay in the Hamline Avenue project, because of the need for surcharging, <br />was queried. It was noted that this is apparently not a problem; Hamline <br />is scheduled for construction in 1986 -- surcharging will be completed this <br />fall. McNiesh was requested to relay to MnDOT that Arden Hills concurs <br />that the Lexington bridge construction should be delayed until 1987 so that <br />Lexington and Hamline will not be under construction the same year. <br /> <br />NSP Notification of Rate Increase <br />Hicks referred Council to letter from St. Paul asking municipalities to <br />join as a consortium to intervene in the electric rate case. <br /> <br />After discussion, Council concurred that it would. not be involved at this <br />time. <br /> <br />Community Human Services Department - Representative <br />Council was referred t request from Ramsey County Community Human Services <br />Department requesting the City to appoint a representative to a community <br />involvement task force committee to act in an advisory capacity to the depart- <br />ment regarding the development and dispersal of residential care facilities. <br /> <br />Council referred the request to the Planning Commission to see if someone <br />on the Commission would like to volunteer to serve on this new committee, <br />representing Arden Hills. <br /> <br />REPORT OF VILLAGE CLERK ADMINISTRATOR CHARLOTTE MCNIESH <br /> <br />Application for Payment - Allied Blacktop <br />Council was referred to Application for Payment for 1985 Sealcoating, recom- <br />mended for payment by the City Engineer.
