City of Centerville <br />City Council Meeting <br />June 11, 2008 <br />City Administrator Larson stated that there might be some Petro Fund Grant dollars <br />available; but the funds might not be available until they had a bid for the services. He <br />also was not sure if it could be applied to the problem after the fact. <br />Councilmember Lee inquired as to what the cost would be. <br />City Engineer Statz replied that, in general, they would take soil to see how deep the <br />contamination is and, from there, get a cost. <br />Councilmember Broussard-Vickers inquired whether the County had been put on notice <br />that this is an issue. <br />City Administrator Larson replied that the County would work with the City if the City <br />has a plan <br />Councilmember Lee stated that it would be foolish not to look into what the expense <br />would be. <br />Mayor Capra inquired about what is the most urgent area. <br />City Administrator Larson stated that the area along Main Street between Progress and <br />Centerville Road could be the most urgent problem. <br />City Engineer Statz stated that they have to determine how serious the problem is, and <br />they are still searching for good advice. <br />City Engineer Statz inquired whether the City Council would authorize an expenditure up <br />to $12,000. <br />Councilmember Paar inquired as to what part of the contamination will actually be on the <br />County road. <br />City Engineer Statz replied that that is what this proposal will find out. He added that <br />they are still trying to determine how far out the odors will go. A proposal was received <br />from Prosource Technologies, but he isn't sure the scope of work in the proposal is what <br />is needed. <br />Councilmember Broussard-Vickers stated that she does not like this company's contract. <br />She stated they have no professional liability, and the contract limits their liability. She <br />added that she does not want that type of wording in the contract. <br />City Attorney Glaser stated that they might not use this company. <br />City Administrator Larson stated that there could be a way to put a barrier on the <br />basement walls of buildings to prevent a problem. <br />Page 9 of 15 <br />
