<br />Memorandum <br />April 18, 2005 <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />Maintenance eosts are estimated in the $30,000 range annually. This cost is based on a fairly <br />high level of maintenance including mowing of the boulevards and median, and deadheading <br />plants to promote better flowering. <br /> <br />Watering may need to be done by the City after the two year plant material warranty period is <br />over during dry weather conditions. The total project cost is estimated to be approximately <br />$290,000 with Ramsey County contributing $155,000 and Arden Hills contributing $135,000. <br /> <br />The intent of the discussion Monday is to review the concept plan prepared by URS. If the <br />Council is comfortable with the eoncept plan, a resolution authorizing the preparation of final <br />plans and speeifications will be presented at a future Council meeting, We recommend the final <br />design be completed during the summer of2005 with bids solicited in the fall of2005 to allow <br />for planting material to be procured and readied for spring 2006 planting, Based upon discussions <br />with Ramsey County Public Works staff, the project could be lead by Arden Hills with Ramsey <br />County financially participating through the use of County state aid funds. <br /> <br />.. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br />
