Albrecht: Affirmed, and added that after 2010 the amount will be reduced to $50,000 annually, Erickson: Asked if water quality improvements afforded with the water treatment facility could lead to less degradation of the water meters and allow for replacing just the batteries rather than the entire meter, 4 City Council May 17, 2010 Meeting Minutes DRAFT Albrecht: Replied that meter replacement will be dictated by technology as the electronic components wear out and money can be saved by replacing them rather than having follow-up service calls, Batteries come with the electronic units, Erickson: Asked about the feasibility of using surface water from a Burnsville quarry rather than building another well. Albrecht: Replied the City has only a couple of connections to bring water from other sources, Currently, at a peak day, the City is pumping all of its wells all the time, We have the safety net of a reservoir; but when the towers are drained, it can cause damage to the system, Erickson: Commented that surface water would have to be treated before it comes to us, Albrecht: Replied that we are getting ground water from Savage so the treatment is the same; whereas surface water has a different Ph balance and issues with smell and taste can arise when the two are mixed, Erickson: Asked how the potential CR 21 alternative route might affect the Arcadia project. Albrecht: Replied that can be known later this year, but potentially some of the final work such as landscaping, etc, would not be done, Noted the City has not bonded for that project yet.

Described other rural areas where the amenities are not scheduled and they would likely coincide with development in those areas, Myser: Commented that it is good the City is doing the planning to take care of the infrastructure, Struggles with decisions on capital improvement without knowing the operating situation. Suggested that if the City is making infrastructure improvements, it might have to let go of some of the other improvements, MOTION BY HEDBERG, SECONDED BY ERICKSON TO DIRECT STAFF TO PREPARE RESOLUTIONS FOR APPROVAL OF THE 2011-2015 CIP AND STREET RECONSTRUCTION PLAN AT THE JUNE 21,2010 CITY COUNCIL MEETING, VOTE: Ayes by Myser, Erickson, Hedberg and Millar.

Millar: Queried why the new system was not obtained sooner when they were aware there was a problem with the first one, and that there would be revocation of the license with further violation, Shah: Due to the cost.

Gave examples of businesses in commercial zones, such as restaurants, that would not be allowed to apply for a liquor license due to confusion in administering the existing ordinance, Commented that the ordinance does not necessarily address where noise could be coming from such as parking lots or front doors; nor does it address where the receptors would be, Comments: Hedberg: Stated that the Planning Commission and staff should focus on protections that should be achieved, get public input and provide clarity, Agreed that focus could be on where there are entrances to buildings and parking lots are as that is where noise would emanate from, Would like to see businesses find a way to develop in the community, Seeks less ambiguity and more consistency in the codes, Millar: Commented that the City needs to be mindful of the type of businesses we want to attract, especially in areas that are near to residential properties, Restaurants where food is the priority, rather than a bar, would be preferred, Erickson: Added that a good example is the Cove, Myser: Concurred with comments to have intent of the code clarified, as well as the opportunity to develop more business in the City, 7 City Council May 17, 2010 Meeting Minutes DRAFT MOTION BY HEDBERG, SECONDED BY MILLAR TO DIRECT STAFF TO PREPARE AMENDMENTS TO THE ORDINANCE FOR CONSIDERATION BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION AT A PUBLIC HEARING.

Albrecht: Added that staff plans to bring any needed ordinance to the Council in July, Erickson: Asked if the number of ponds the City needs to maintain will increase as the City annexes areas in the Spring Lake Township, Albrecht: Replied there are some ponds in those areas and as the City develops, alternative solutions besides ponds will be sought to minimize long term liability, Myser: Clarified bid information and asked how end results compared to base bids in past experience, Bintner: The bid is structured so each service is based on a unit price. There may be opportunity to stop testing based on results and save money if fewer tests are needed, Noted that last year's soil testing was close to the assumptions made on the bid, Wetland delineation and surveying can be based on future design and how much construction staking is needed, Explained that every wetland delineation has to be approved by the technical evaluation panel and if it had to go back to the panel a second time, it could add cost.
