Case #6: Report on Waco Street N.W. Maintenance Problems. <br /> <br />Mr. Otto stated that Burns Township is upgrading their portion of Waco Street and is <br />concerned that each year there is an erosion problem on the Ramsey portion of Waco Street <br />that affects that portion of Waco Street in Burns. Mr. Otto noted that Public Works <br />Supervisor Merle Mevissen has indicated that the City spends approximately $800.00 per <br />year on maintaining the subject portion of Waco Street. Mr. Otto stated that there are two <br />alternatives to the problem. <br /> <br />Regrade and sod the ditches in the subject area for an estimated cost of <br />$3,000.00. <br /> <br />Grade and pave the North 250 feet of Waco Street in Ramsey with <br />construction of bituminous berms along each side of the street for an <br />estimated cost of $3,700.00. <br /> <br />Mr. Otto stated that the City has, in the past, taken funds from the General Fund to pay for <br />a road improvement for safety purposes. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Peterson and seconded by Councilmember DeLuca to direct the <br />City Engineer to obtain an alternate bid in conjunction with the Burns Township <br />improvement project for the paving of the North 250 feet of Waco Street in Ramsey. <br /> <br />Motion carded. Voting Yes: Mayor Reimann, Councilmembers Peterson, DeLuca, Cich <br />and Pearson. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />Case #7: <br /> <br />Receive Bids for Bituminous Overlay Irnprovement PrQects 90-07 (Autumn <br />Heights, 90-08 (Woodland Green] and 90-09 (Halls Dover Acres). <br /> <br />Mr. Otto stated that the City received 10 bids on the 1990 bituminous overlay projects. The <br />lower bidder was Bauerly Brothers and the second lowest bidder was Northwest Asphalt. <br />At first City staff had proposed to recommend that the contract be awarded to Northwest <br />Asphalt because the bid from Bauerly Brothers was unbalanced. After further discussions <br />with Mn/DOT, it has been determined that it would be appropriate to award the bid to <br />Bauefly Brothers because while their bid may be mathematically unbalanced, it will not <br />materially affect the quality of the project and it will meet the specifications at the lowest <br />cost to the City. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Pearson and seconded by Councilmember Peterson to adopt <br />Resolution //90-07-202 accepting bids for bituminous overlays for Autumn Heights, <br />Woodland Green and Halls Dover Acres (Improvement Projects 90-7, 8, and 9) and <br />awarding a contract to Bauerly Brothers for such improvement. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Reimann, Councilmembers Pearson, Peterson, Cich <br />and DeLuca. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />City Council / July 10, 1990 <br /> Page 8 of 14 <br /> <br /> <br />
