<br />ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - April 14, 2008 <br /> <br />6 <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden stated that there may be issues with the manhole covers dealing with <br />the TCAAP property and asked if this had been investigated. <br /> <br />Public Works Director Hoag stated that there may be one that may warrant work but he had not <br />assigned this to anyone yet. He also stated that they have tracked down the sewer plans for the <br />property and would be investigating those lines. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes asked Councilmember Grant ifhis intention for pulling this item from <br />the consent calendar was to defer the item until a better work plan was put together. <br /> <br />Councilmember Grant stated that he wanted to make the point to Staff that more detail was <br />desired and that it was pointed out that this information would be forthcoming. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes stated that if the City did not know exactly what the plan was or what <br />Bonestroo is doing and the priorities for the plan then it may be a good idea to defer this item <br />until the City receives this information. <br /> <br />Interim City Administrator Jim Willis stated that the work plan contained in the documents <br />was for work that was going to be undertaken in order to gain information in order to put <br />together a work plan that addresses the problem areas. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes stated that there was not enough detail provided at this time. <br /> <br />Council member Holden stated that it may be solved by taking out the word "plan" in the <br />document because this was more outlining the work that needed to be done in order to create a <br />plan. <br /> <br />Mayor Harpstead stated that this document was a first step and that it was really only for <br />approval for Bonestroo. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holmes stated that Civil Engineer Giga was requesting funding for smoke <br />testing and meters. <br /> <br />Civil Engineer Giga stated that the $ 18,300 would be for services that Bonestroo would be <br />providing in interpreting the data that was received from the meters and smoke testing. There <br />are also additional cost estimates for the flow meter rental, lift station monitors, and smoke <br />testing and Staff is looking for authorization to proceed with these items as well. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden asked if the City's time was included in the $IOO, I 00. <br /> <br />Civil Engineer Giga stated that these costs were included. <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung asked for clarification regarding the amount of funding that was <br />being requested. <br />
