I ~. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - DECEMBER 26. 1995 7 I Councilmember Keim requested that concern has been expressed for the road condition of I Edgewater Avenue and needs to be addressed. MOTION: Malone moved and Aplikowski seconded a motion to adopt Resolution No. 95- I 90, Receiving Preliminary Report and Calling for a Public Hearing for the 1996 Street Improvements. Motion carried unanimously (5-0). I National Guard Payment Mr. Fritsinger reported to the Council that the National Guard has requested reimbursement of I $14,745.20 for the City of Arden Hills share of the water and sewer connection at the National Guard site. In addition, the engineer for the National Guard (MelchertlB10ck Associates) has requested an additional $5,384.42 for other costs associated with the project. I Mr. Fritsinger continued that the City agreed in June 1995 to participate in a project to connect to I municipal water and sewer for the Minnesota Army National Guard, with the City's share of the cost to be between $16,875 and $19,875. The exact cost would be dependent on whether a ten or twelve inch water main was necessary in the public sanitary sewer lift station. .. Melchert/Block Associates stated that a ten inch water main would be adequate to supply the facility. The City Engineer requested calculations proving the facility only needed a ten inch I water service, as well as the City requesting this information in a letter dated July 25, 1995. To date, no information has been provided to the City or Engineer. An additional $734.42 is also due for a tracer wire along the PVC force main. I Mr. Fritsinger stated he initially recommended payment of the $15,479.62 for the City's share in the water and sewer connection project and to authorize Staff to reimburse the National Guard I for the $5,384.42, once appropriate documentation and City Engineer approval is given. However, after discussion with the National Guard earlier today the Guard requested payment only for the amount invoiced. Staffrecommends payment of $14,745.20 and authorization to I reimburse the National Guard for the remainder, once appropriate documentation and City Engineer approval is given. I Councilmember Malone asked what the Guard's position is on the overage. Mr. Fritsinger replied that the Guard has stated it believes it is the City's responsibility to obtain the specific I calculations if that is what is required. Councilmember Aplikowski indicated that the National Guard believes a letter was sent dated I December 14, 1995 with the requested information and that nothing further was needed. Mr. Fritsinger agreed that the National Guard believes this, but the City has been very clear from the ~ start of this project that it was the National Guards responsibility to provide the oversizing calculations.
