Member Wilke asked if they couldn't just go ahead with the County Road B part of the project alone right now.

Bloom said she thinks the project will be well funded. Schwartz said he wanted to emphasizc the stmggle for funding right now. There isn't a lot of money available so a lot of projects are being backed up. MnfDOT, Ramsey County, and Metro Transit have been invited to the January 24 City Council Work Session. Schwartz asked Bloom to discuss the Rosedale expansion and the new Target store. 5. Sanitary Sewer Inflow/Infiltration Study (Continued) Duane Schwartz introduced the topic and explained that at this stage what they wanted to do was give an overview of a proposed program that would enable Roseville to find their problems. Deb Bloom made the presentation of different options that could be used in this situation. Member Rossini suggested that the Fire Department be used to do some of the inspections.
