Green Company <br /> t��sl I <br /> CONSULTING ENGINEERS Formerly M SA <br /> Consulting Engineers <br /> April 1, 1998 <br /> File: 260094m <br /> Mr. Jim March <br /> City Administrator <br /> City of Centerville <br /> 1880 Main Street <br /> Centerville, MN 55038 <br /> RE: LAURIE LAMOTTE MEMORIAL PARK <br /> Dear Mr. March: <br /> During a meeting with the Rice Creek Watershed District, I asked about the possibility of <br /> obtaining funds for wetlands enhancement work associated with the project. While there is no <br /> formal application process, the District Administrator did suggest that the City submit a request. <br /> They will not pay for ordinary new development casts, but potential water quality development <br /> costs are eligible. This would typically include excavation costs for the pond beyond what would <br /> ordinarily be required for fill material, and extra wetland plantings cost. Funds are available on a <br /> competitive basis. There needs to be a formal written request from the City with a sketch and <br /> an estimate of costs involved. <br /> The sketch plan produced by HKgi has been drafted up, along with comments from City staff <br /> generated during a review. Grading contours have also been generated. We plan to review this <br /> with the Park and Recreation committee tonight if our attendance is requested. <br /> Any plan developed will need to be reviewed by the RCWD and the City of St. Paul Water Utility <br /> department. Plan or permit approval requires Board approval, and these two boards meet once <br /> a month, toward the end of the month. This would impact any schedule for developing plans <br /> and specifications. A project schedule could be as shown: <br /> Order plans & specifications April 8 or 22, 1998 <br /> Approve plans & specs and authorize advertisement for bids May 13, 1998 <br /> Receive bids June 9, 1998 <br /> Award contract June 24, 1998 <br /> Begin construction July 1998 <br /> Complete construction September 1998 <br /> 1326 Energy Park Drive • St. Paul, MN 55108 • 612/644 -4389 tax 612/644 -9446 toll free 8001888 -2923 <br />
