recommended that the City Council suspend the City's annual sealcoat program for one year to <br /> allow for further observation of previously sealcoated City streets, and to research the practices <br /> and findings of other cities. <br /> Councilmember Kuzma noted that fog sealing has a longer time where residents cannot drive on <br /> the road and that can be challenging. He stated that if that route is chosen, he would like to see <br /> some additional testing. <br /> Councilmember Musgrove noted that some of the roads are MSA roads and asked for <br /> information on funding for those roads. <br /> City Engineer Westby explained that State Aid Funds are not used for cracksealing or <br /> sealcoating. <br /> Councilmember Heinrich commented that it seems that the sealcoating is not working and <br /> therefore it makes sense to suspend that activity and put more research into that topic. She <br /> thanked staff for thinking ahead on that subject. <br /> Councilmember Riley stated that it is counterintuitive to stop caring for the roads that have not <br /> been maintained. He noted that this would suspend sealcoating for one year to allow additional <br /> research. He stated that $500,000 has been budgeted and therefore staff will find the most <br /> appropriate use of the additional funds. <br /> Motion by Councilmember Musgrove, seconded by Councilmember Riley, to Adopt Resolution <br /> #19-135 Approving Plans and Specifications and Authorizing Advertisements for Bids for 2019 <br /> Cracksealing Improvements, Improvement Project#19-00. <br /> Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor LeTourneau, Councilmembers Musgrove, Riley, Heinrich, <br /> and Kuzma. Voting No: None. <br /> 7.03: Adopt Resolution #19-165 Accepting Bids and Awarding Contract for Improvement <br /> Project#18-09, COR Infiltration Basin Improvements <br /> Civil Engineer IV Linton reviewed the staff report and recommendation to adopt Resolution#19- <br /> 165 accepting bids and awarding contract for construction for Improvement Project#18-09 COR <br /> Infiltration Basin Improvements. He noted that construction of the project in 2019 will fulfill the <br /> City obligation to the LRRWMO for providing infiltration for projects in The COR. <br /> Councilmember Kuzma stated that the commercial developers pay a fee that helps to defer the <br /> cost for this construction. He noted that future development will also pay towards this <br /> construction. <br /> Motion by Councilmember Kuzma, seconded by Councilmember Riley, to Adopt Resolution <br /> #19-165 Accepting Bids and Awarding Contract for Improvement Project #18-09, COR <br /> Infiltration Basin Improvements. <br /> City Council/June 11,2019 <br /> Page 7 of 9 <br />
