Chairperson McGlone suggested the residents be informed of the seed mixture and they can opt <br />out of using the City's mixture if they choose. <br />Case #3: Consider Policy for Importing Material into the COR <br />City Engineer Himmer reviewed the staff report. <br />Chairperson McGlone suggested a number of placement options for material should be <br />developed. Since the majority of the planning is done, there may be opportunities to place <br />materials. He mentioned since most of the grading is done, the opportunities to obtain fill are <br />numerous. <br />Discussion took place on the potential depth of the lake that is planned and the amount of fill that <br />may be needed. <br />Mayor Ramsey noted the lake is moving south. <br />Development Manager Lazan responded this will not change the amount of fill that is needed. <br />Public Works Director Olson noted the grading is low in the northwest corner. This cannot be <br />filled until the WMO permit is approved. The school is offering some material, but the City <br />cannot place it where it's needed until it is through the WMO process, which could take a year. <br />He explained the wetland in the northwest corner is widening and a new permit is needed for the <br />mitigation. <br />City Engineer Himmer indicated there are six to eight weeks of work to prepare the permit to go <br />forward with the WMO process. <br />Mayor Ramsey pointed out the potential State government shut down could delay the process <br />more. <br />Chairperson McGlone suggested the school be contacted to learn their intentions of what they <br />plan to do with the stockpiles of materials. If the City could import it, it needs to be placed <br />where it wouldn't need to be moved again. <br />Councilmember Tossey stated he is not in favor of purchasing fill at this point. He said he <br />agrees with Chairperson McGlone in checking with the school. <br />Development Manager Lazan gave his opinion that the City should take the material as it <br />becomes available, since the ultimate design is unknown at this point. <br />Motion by Chairperson McGlone, seconded by Councilmember Tossey, to recommend the HRA <br />check with the school for their plans on material and to move forward with the WMO process. <br />Further discussion. Councilmember Elvig questioned how many dumptruck loaders there are. <br />Street Supervisor Reimer explained it would take a long time to use the City's equipment for <br />Public Works Committee / June 21, 2011 <br />Page 4 of 6 <br />
