Mr. Miller noted that the requested action tonight was for staff to continue to work with the School District and solicit bids; with staff returning to the City Council for any further or future action or project. Mr. Miller noted that monies were set aside and currently available in the City's Equipment Fund Budget. Terre Heiser, Information Technology Network Manager Mr. Heiser provided technical information; anticipated maintenance costs to the City's current maintenance firm at an estimated cost of $1,800 per year, or $30 per month per building; other components, such as any additional equipment with no major costs; city ownership of the system and agreements to be put in place for operational maintenance; responsibility of both parties for their own equipment; potential for additional tertiary sites (i.e., private schools) and cost-sharing oppor- tunities; and advantages of a more dependable fiber optic system, rather than a co- ax cable and down time. School District No. 623 representatives were in attendance, but had no comment other than support for the proposal.

Rainbow Foods Combined Storm Sewer System Update City Engineer Debra Bloom briefly updated the City Council, after preparation of the staff report dated May 19, 2008, on continuing negotiations, alternatives, and indemnification issues for a combined storm sewer system update in the vicinity of Larpenteur and Fernwood, and the redevelopment of the Rainbow Foods store. Given the current lack of agreement finalized or in place, the construction sched- ule of the developer and property owner, and in the best interest of the City, Ms. Bloom recommended that the City not pursue a joint system at this time, but pur- sue astand alone system or focus on the system as part of the project, but located in a different location on the site. Ms. Bloom noted that, with the new construction on site, the developer would be reducing site runoff by almost 90%, with noticeable impacts to the area. Klausing moved, Roe seconded, a motion to continue past the 10:00 p.m. curfew, extending the meeting to 10:30 p.m.
