Extract of Minutes of Meeting
of City Council
City of Arden Hills
Ramsey County, Minnesota
June 30, 1986
Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, a regular meeting
of the City Council of the City of Arden Hills, Minnesota, was
duly held at the City Hall in said City on Monday, June 30, 1986,
commencing at 7:30 o'clock p.m.
The following members of the Council were present: Mayor
Woodburn and Council members Hicks, Hansen, Peck and Sather.
Also in attendance were Clerk-Administrator McNiesh,
Deputy Clerk Zehm, Public Works Supervisor Raddatz, Treasurer
Lamb, and City Engineers Christoffersen and Peters.
City Engineer Christoffersen referred the Council to his
letter of June 27, 1986 and the attached bid tabulation for
Improvement
P-85-3--Hamline
Phase
Mr.
II.
No.
Avenue,
Christoffersen reported that the bids ranged from a low bid of
$872,648.23 to a high of $970,968.99.
He noted that the bids
included alternatives for planting and sidewalk on the east side
of Hamline Avenue.
He recommended the City's awarding the
contract to the lowest bidder, Forest Lake Contracting, Inc. He
explained that the reason the project was going to cost
$95,000.00 over the original estimate in the Feasibility Report
was the extra granular material in the road subgrade which was
recommended by the testing company.
The Council in discussing this matter registered concern
relative to the costs of the project. The Council was referred
,
"
,
to a petition opposing the east walkway which had been signed by
about 17 individuals and submitted to the Council previously. It
was noted that the residents opposing the walkway are adjacent to
Hamline Avenue. The Wyncrest and Wynridge residents, one of the
Council members pointed out, favor the walkway segment. The cost
of the walkway segment was indicated to be $10,920.70.
Council member Sather explained that the east walkway was
proposed as a systematic approach to crossing Hamline Avenue on a
painted crosswalk where Floral Park is located so that citizens
would have safe access to Cummings and Floral Parks.
After further discussion, Council member Hicks introduced
and moved the adoption of the following Resolution:
