Contaminated Soils/Downtown Area <br /> <br />City Administrator Larson reported that in the process of the County doing the road <br />project, they found signs of contaminated soil at 3 locations, causing odors resembling <br />gas or diesel fuel. <br /> <br />City Attorney Glaser stated that if they experience odors of gas or oil smells, the County <br />may be able to leave it in place. PCA may not make them change it. If the City then <br />builds next to that road, the vapors could seep into the building next door. <br /> <br />City Engineer Statz showed on the screen Area 1, 5 and 6 around Main Street, where the <br />odors were found. He stated that they found tanks around Area 1. He stated that the <br />issue for the City's concern is what would happen if they built, as the buildings next to <br />the road may get transferred odors. He added that the County not have obligations to <br />mitigate contaminated soil under the roadway. <br /> <br />City Attorney Glaser stated that if the City does not act now, they might lose the <br />opportunity to resolve the issue before the roadway is built. <br /> <br />Page 8 of 15 <br /> <br />8 <br />
