City of Centerville Council Meeting Minutes February 27, 2013 f. Area City Collaboration — Utility Systems (Operation, Maintenance & Distribution of Sanitary Sewer and Water Supply) Administrator Larson reported that all cities had passed the resolution and a bill number would be forthcoming. Administrator Larson felt that this had significant potential and continues to move forward. g. Building Inspection/Public Works Maintenance Technician Vacant Position Administrator Larson stated that the City had received approximately 15 applications, has scheduled eight (8) interviews and anticipates that Staff will have a recommendation for Council's next meeting. h. Anoka County Centerville Road/CSAH21 Reconstruction Engineer Statz reviewed with Council Anoka County's latest proposals and estimated project cost, which are very preliminary and are for discussion purposes. Engineer Statz reported that the County has incorporated several desires of Council. Engineer Statz stated that the City's portion of required costs would be a minimum $140,000 and up to $527,000 which would include an 48" trunk storm sewer ($280,000) and Sidewalk from Meadow Lane to Dupre Road on the east side of the roadway ($78,000) and the required construction engineering fees of $29,000. Council directed Engineer Statz to research the cost share percentages of the City versus the County. Engineer Statz stated that the County anticipates the project to commence in 2014 and would cost a total of 1.8 million to complete. Administrator Larson stated that additional research would be completed as to whether the County included replacement of a culvert underneath the trail to the park and he felt that the County may pay a portion of this cost. Administrator Larson felt that the improvement costs for the City's portion could be paid without bonding due to the delay of the project to 2014. Lengthy discussion ensued regarding Anoka County's responsibilities for securing easements, their desire for delaying construction until 2014 when the roadway is currently in horrible condition. Administrator Larson stated that both the County and Staff felt that to continue the project at this time, a public input meeting should be held. Council Member Paar reported that since the Council's previous meeting, Council Members Love and Fehrenbacher along with residents Mr. Charles Reinhardt and Mr. John Thill have expressed their willingness to assist with the organization of the annual Fete des Lacs parade that is scheduled to take place on July 27, 2013. Mayor Wilharber expressed to the public the importance of keeping fire hydrants clear of snow. Page 5 of 6 5
