COUNCIL BUSINESS <br /> 7.01: Consider Adopting Resolution #17-10-274 Accepting Quotes and Awarding <br /> Contract for Improvement Project #17-13, Potassium Street Cul-De-Sac <br /> Improvements <br /> City Engineer Westby reviewed the staff report noting that in order to ensure that maintenance, <br /> service, and emergency response vehicles are able to turn around at the north end of Potassium <br /> Street within the near future, staff recommends adoption of Resolution #17-10-274 accepting <br /> quotes and awarding a contract to Dave Perkins Contracting, Inc. in the amount of$34,877 for <br /> Improvement Project #17-13, Potassium Street Cul-De-Sac Improvements. He noted that <br /> approving this option would also allow this matter to be resolved without incurring additional <br /> legal fees that would be required if the City were to seek a declaratory judgement through Anoka <br /> County District Court; however, anticipated legal fees associated with seeking a declaratory <br /> judgement on this matter could be much less than the cost to construct the temporary cul-de-sac. <br /> Mayor Strommen asked if staff believes that Shade Tree Communities, LLC understands the <br /> time constraints the City is under. <br /> City Engineer Westby replied that it was a quick email conversation and the timeline was not <br /> addressed. He stated that he did mention timing in his response and that he would provide an <br /> update to Shade Tree the following day. <br /> Councilmember Kuzma referenced the funding of the project, which would come from the public <br /> improvement revolving fund and asked if that fund typically is used for .this type of <br /> improvement. <br /> City Council/October 24, 2017 <br /> Page 5 of 16 <br />
