The developers are now requesting <br />additional city participation and Mr. Hartley suggested using storm sewer <br />funds which have been paid for oversizing by the developrs of the River's <br />Bend residential area. Using this approach, the City would then be <br />participating by paying for an additional $20,000 to $30,000 of storm sewer <br />on the River's Bend Plaza site. <br /> <br />Mr. Lyle McLaughlin stated that MN/DoT reversed it's position causing <br />additional expenses to be incurred. Mr. McLaughlin stated he was in favor <br />of Mr. Hartley's suggested approach but it would still leave a deficit. <br />Mr. McLaughlin proposed that Council also consider paying for half of the <br />cost of Xkimo Street NW and Lot 4 of River's Bend. <br /> <br />Council recessed at 9:05 p.m. <br /> <br />Mayor Reimann called the meeting back to order at 9:20 p.m. <br /> <br />Mr. Hartley explained that the additional costs for the project are a <br />result of DNR's requiring an additional amount of storm sewer work to be <br />done. Mr. Hartley noted that it would be consistent with the present <br />policy to use money from the Rum River Taxing District for storm sewers in <br />this area. <br /> <br />Councilmember Cox inquired if there are possibile deletions in the original <br />proposal for site improvements that could offset these additional costs. <br /> <br />City Engineer Raatikka replied that landscaping in Lot 2 could be deleted <br />and reduce the original proposal by several thousand dollars. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Cox and seconded by Councilmember DeLuca to <br />authorize the City to pay for additional costs incurred by the River's Bend <br />Plaza project as of April 28, I987, up to a maximum of $36,260, for the <br />trunk storm sewer and that it be paid for from revenues previously received <br />for trunk storm sewer purposes. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Reimann, Councilmembers Sorteberg~ Cox, <br />DeLuca and Pearson. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />City Council/April 28, 1987 <br /> <br />Page 10 of 18 <br /> <br /> <br />
