CITY OF CENTERVILLE MONTHL YENGINEERS REPORT For the August 11, 2010 City Council Meeting 1. 21 st Avenue /Backage Road (000616 - 05143 -0). Mylars have been printed and are being signed by the necessary officials as well as the Sheehys. Once the signatures are obtained and all taxes are made current, the plat can be recorded. The court date to resolve the assessment to the Sheehy parcel has been pushed back to October. 2. Old Mill Road Improvements (000616- 06147 -0). We received the signed final pay request from the bonding company. However, they have not provided all IC -134s or Lien Waivers and have stated that he will not be able to produce them. The City Attorney is reviewing the situation. 3. TE Grant Trail Project (000616- 08165 -0). The project was bid on July 13 Unfortunately, we only received 2 bids, both of which were significantly higher than the engineer's estimate. The project plans and specifications are being modified to allow completion of the project in 2011. Additionally, several elements of the park work are being packaged into alternates. Mark Statz attended the August 4 th Parks and Rec Committee meeting to discuss this scenario and gain the committee's input. With these revisions, we are hopeful that we will be able to re -bid the project with results that allow the Council to award the project and move forward with construction. If the Council is ready to do so, they could authorize the re- bidding at their upcoming meeting. City and Bonestroo staffs are working out arrangements for the inspection of the project. The federal funding will require specialized documentation as well as advanced MNDOT certifications. Proper inspection and documentation will be imperative to ensure our funding is secured. 4. 2008 Downtown Storm Water Improvements (000616- 08167 -0). Design of the project is underway. A preliminary design of the irrigation system was presented to staff and the Parks Committee for their input. We will be taking their comments and revising the layout accordingly.
