The Council reviewed the 21 AvenuelBackage Road and industrial site project and <br />its status. An undisclosed easemeat to Rice Creek Watershed District was <br />discovered through a survey. The entire site of the proposed industrial development <br />would be unbuiIdabIe if the easement were not released by RCWD. It is believed <br />that RCWD will release the easement, but that must be confirmed. The City has <br />been unable to negotiate easements with Sheehy Consuuction, so the attorney will <br />be proceedi1tg with the condetnnation of the needed right of way and easements. <br />The County permit for CSAH 54 entrance has been applied for and a right turn lane <br />will be required.

The Council would like the downtown area up to Centerville Lake added to <br />2007 construction, if possible. This facilitate the redevelopment of the downtown. <br />4. Dallas Larson reported that the principals ofBonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik and <br />Associates would like to assign a ditTerent engineer to Centerville to take over the <br />various projects.
