Downtown Water Main and Street Reconstruction <br />City staff recently met with representatives from the County regarding our Community <br />Development Block Grant application. They have asked us to resubmit our application <br />with some small changes. We have reason to believe we will be successful with our <br />application and that we will be able to provide financial relief to income-qualified <br />residents in the downtown area for a water and street reconstruction project. <br />Water Main Interconnect <br />Lino Lakes recently submitted plans for the water main interconnect that is being planned <br />in conjunction with the Watermark development. City staff is reviewing them for final <br />comments. The interconnect would be the second such connection between Centerville <br />and Lino Lakes water systems. Centerville approved an amendment to the Interconnect <br />Agreement at an earlier meeting. The improvements are being paid for by Lino Lakes (or <br />their developer) and will not cost Centerville anything. <br />Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Park Reserve Maintenance Facility Sewer Hook-up <br />County parks staff has contacted the city requesting an extension of their sewer service to <br />some new office space at their maintenance facility in the regional park. The facility <br />would simply hook to the existing sewer line serving other buildings in the park. City <br />staff is evaluating what hook-up charges or amendments to existing agreements may be <br />needed, if any. <br />PUBLIC WORKS/STREETS <br />Street Sweeping <br />The weather has not cooperated to get all of the sweeping done, but we continue to find <br /> <br />Downtown TIF District Inspections <br />ing at completing the necessary inspections <br />and documentation to qualify a downtown redevelopment TIF district. <br /> <br />Staffing <br />One of our public works staff members has been out for a week on a planned medical <br />leave. He will return next week on light duty assignments for a period of several weeks <br />before being revaluated to resume full work load. <br /> <br />We have commitments from four people for seasonal work this summer. All four are <br />returning employees, so we should have a good solid workforce to tackle some of our <br />projects. <br /> <br /> <br />
