City of Centerville <br />City Council Work Session <br />May 21, 2008 <br />Councilmember Paar questioned if there was anything Public Works Director Palzar thought <br />should be added or removed. <br />Public Works Director Palzar replied that they all could use some attention. He added that if it is <br />not done this time, we would need to look at it next time. <br />Mayor Capra stated that they could put it in as an alternative. She stated that she had a question <br />on Mill Road. She would like to see a trail go to the end. She stated that with Grant dollars, they <br />are doing improved drainage to make the trails possible. They are only doing it because of the <br />trails. Managing the storm water is being done that way because of the trails. She inquired <br />whether they could use Grant dollars for that cost. <br />City Engineer Statz stated that contract changes could be made up to 25% of the price of the <br />contract. But, if it is more than 25%, they cannot change the contract. <br />Councilmember Broussard-Vickers suggested leaving out Peterson and Center and getting <br />started. <br />Councilmember Lee suggested that when they decide what they are going to order, they need to <br />keep their options open. He added that they will have to order it all, but bid on only part of it. <br />City Engineer Statz suggested that it can be split into 2 projects, and they can decide later <br />whether or not to do the second one. <br />Councilmember Broussard-Vickers inquired whether it would it be possible to have 2 projects in <br />the same bond. <br />City Attorney Glaser replied that bonding companies may be more flexible now because of the <br />economy. <br />Councilmember Paar stated that City Engineer Statz now knows what they are looking for. <br />Councilmember Broussard-Vickers inquired about what happens to Mill Road. If they do not <br />choose to put in a trail, would they want work done on Mill Road. She suggested starting on <br />things that can be done. <br />Mayor Capra stated that they should use grant dollars to improve drainage and do the trail. <br />City Engineer Statz stated that at the June 11 Meeting, he would provide a Letter of Proposal, <br />with his fees for the project as they have defined it. <br />Councilmember Broussard-Vickers stated that she does not want to lose the first map. <br />City Engineer Statz stated that between now and June 11, the City Council should add and <br />subtract. He stated that they would move forward from there. <br />Page 9 of 14 <br />
