City of Centerville <br />Council Meeting Minutes <br />May 10, 2006 <br /> <br />Council Member Paar indicated that in the scheme of this project, $40,000 is not much <br />money so he would like to have it replaced. <br /> <br />Council Member Terway indicated he would like to see it done with the project. <br /> <br />Mayor Capra said that this is in a precarious location so she would rather have it fixed <br />now rather than having to mess with it later. <br /> <br />Council Member Lakso indicated that she would go with the recommendation of the <br />Engineer not to fix something that is not broken but it is hard to tell how long it would be <br />before it needs replacing. <br /> <br />Motion by Council Member Terway, seconded by Council Member Paar, to <br />authorize the City Engineer to move forward with City infrastructure, sanitary <br />sewer force main as proposed $40,000 to be included in the County Plan by open <br />cut. Ayes – 4, Nays – 1(Lakso). Motion carried. <br /> <br />City Administrator Larson asked Council to consider whether to put in a pedestrian path <br />tunnel at Clearwater Creek. He then said that Staff could explore grant funds to do so. <br />He further indicated that it is tight in that area and it may not be possible to get it above <br />the creek and below the roadway. <br /> <br />Council Member Terway suggested investigating the possibility though it may not be <br />feasible. <br /> <br />Mayor Capra indicated that she is unsure how the City could afford it unless grants were <br />received, as this project is quite costly. It would be a wonderful thing to have but it <br />would be difficult to fund and may be difficult to locate in that area. <br /> <br />City Administrator Larson indicated the Engineer has been working on a feasibility study <br />for the improvements on Old Mill Road and there are questions on how to split the costs. <br />He then asked Council whether to include the properties on the other side of the road in <br />the costs or whether the City contributes costs. <br /> <br />Council Member Lee said if the property benefits then they should be assessed. <br /> <br />Council agreed to go to the City limits. <br /> <br />City Engineer Statz asked Council to consider the type of assessment or policy to look at <br />whether front foot or by the acre. <br /> <br />City Administrator Larson indicated it would be by developable lot numbers. <br /> <br />City Administrator Larson indicated the intention was to draw down the water tower and <br />repair the valve and they assumed that the interconnect would mean business as usual but <br />Page 9 of 10 <br />
