The annual street maintenance program is expected to cost $701,441 with money coming from <br />MSA funds, the PIR fund, and Other. <br /> <br />c) Utility System Improvements <br /> 1) Water Projects <br /> <br />It was noted that a comprehensive water study is proposed at a cost of $25,000. The last time a <br />study was done was in 1994. There is $87,000 showing for the SCADA project which is the <br />brains of our water system. The $87,000 is for hardware and software, etc. <br /> <br />Councilmember Haas Steffen wasn't sure all this should be in the CIP - the CIP should list only <br />the hard costs - not the soft costs. The more expensive, larger projects should be in the CIP. <br /> <br />Well No. 4 is partly constructed. <br /> <br />Business Park 95 7th Addition (Phase I) - watermain for $31,000 would be funded from the <br />utilities fund. <br /> <br />With regard to watermain loopings - there are two scheduled for 1998 - 153rd Avenue to T.H. <br />#47 and C.S.A.H. #5 to T.H. #47 <br /> <br />Casings were discussed with regard to the #116 project. <br /> <br />2) Sanitary Sewer Projects <br /> <br />Business Park 95 7th Addition (Phase 1) - sewer line for $31,000. <br /> <br />3) Storm Water Projects <br /> <br />Miscellaneous drainage projects are what staff has not specifically identified, but we know they <br />are out there. <br /> <br />Ditch cleaning was discussed. Councilmember Haas Steffen thought that you could not legally <br />do a ditch improvement except when you have a watershed. She felt the County should take care <br />of the County ditches and the reason the County doesn't take care of its ditches is that no <br />challenges them on it. <br /> <br />Mr. Jankowski stated he would be willing to challenge the County about this. <br /> <br />4) Street Light Projects <br /> <br />Council asked to be informed of where the City is with regard to street lights. Money would be <br />taken out of the Enterprise Funds. <br /> <br />City Council Work Session/March 23, 1998 <br /> Page 5 of 8 <br /> <br /> <br />
