Discussion ensued regarding funding options; with Mr. Schwartz recommending <br /> that the City Council make that decision; with staff to consider minimum and <br /> maximum sizes to consider per rooftop, and provide costs on various inverters <br /> and products, with the PWETC leaning toward those locally made inverters <br /> and/or panels. <br /> Ayes: 7 <br /> Nays: 0 <br /> Motion carried. <br /> Member Cihacek asked that staff include solar updates as a future agenda item, <br /> which was duly noted by Mr. Culver. <br /> Chair Stenlund thanked representatives of Sundial Solar; and asked that the <br /> responses to questions raised during tonight's discussion be provided to staff for <br /> dissemination to the PWETC. <br /> Recess <br /> Chair Stenlund recessed the meeting at approximately 7:46 p.m. and reconvened at <br /> approximately 7:52 p.m. <br /> 6. Upcoming MnDOT Project Information <br /> City Engineer Marc Culver presented information on 2015 MnDOT Construction <br /> projects, specifically those impacting Roseville and its residents (Attachment A). <br /> In response to a question by Member Cihacek, Mr. Culver advised that MnDOT <br /> representatives had made this presentation to the City Council in October, and <br /> while they could have been asked to attend the PWETC meeting, staff felt they <br /> could provide the information. <br /> Member Cihacek asked that, in the future, a MnDOT be present to respond to <br /> questions of the PWETC, with that request duly noted by staff <br /> Mr. Culver provided information on various Ramsey County and MnDOT <br /> projects, including bridge replacements, and potential road closures and/or <br /> detours. Mr. Culver addressed the Snelling Avenue project in detail and impacts <br /> it would have on Roseville residents, due to resurfacing south of the Minnesota <br /> State Fairgrounds and re-decking the bridge over I-94; with some minor impacts <br /> already due to advance utility work. Mr. Culver noted the need to work around <br /> the State Fair dates, but anticipated traffic back-ups throughout the Snelling <br /> Avenue corridor during the major portion of the work. <br /> Mr. Culver noted that the current road systems in the NE Metro were already <br /> running at or over capacity, and when one route was lost it put strains on the <br /> remaining routes. <br /> Page 8 of 11 <br />
