Case #5: Consider Computer Hardware and Software Matters <br /> <br />City Administrator Norman reminded Council of the computer study that was done in <br />June, 1998. As a follow-up to this, staff began to meet with LOGIS (Local Government <br />Information Systems). Mr. Norman presented a joint powers agreement with LOGIS for <br />Council's review. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Haas Steffen and seconded by Councilmember Beahen to <br />authorize entering into a joint and cooperative agreement with LOGIS, authorize the <br />purchase of the financial control and payroll/human resources software from the LOGIS <br />consortium (financing already approved by Council), and to authorize the bidding process <br />for items suggested in the LOGIS recommendations as outlined in their September 1, <br />1998 letter. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Haas Steffen, Beahen and <br />Zimmerman. Voting No: None. Absent: CouncilmemberBeyer. <br /> <br />Case #6: Report from Road and Bridge Committee <br /> <br />1) Consider Change to C.R. #116 Project <br /> <br />City Engineer Jankowski reported that the Road and Bridge Committee met earlier this <br />evening to consider the C.R. #116 project. It was anticipated there would be 20,000 <br />cubic meters of surplus top soil available that could be used to construct a berm. <br />However, it now appears there will not be enough top soil to construct a berm. Mr. <br />Jankowski also felt that a berm will not entirely do what we had hoped which is to screen <br />homes from the road. Staff and the Road and Bridge Committee are suggesting some tree <br />planting take place if the residents are in favor of that. The recommendation is to add the <br />tree planting in the amount of $5,000 and solicit input from the homes closest to #116 to <br />see if they desire the trees to be planted. If that is what they desire, the trees would be <br />planted on the City's 90-foot strip of property. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Haas Steffen and seconded by Councilmember Zimmerman <br />to direct staff to find out if the property owners closest to #116 desire trees planted to <br />serve as a screening, and, if so, that $5,000 be designated to do so. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Haas Steffen, <br />Zimmerman, and Beahen. Voting No: None. Absent: Councilmember Beyer. <br /> <br />Mr. Jankowski reported that the Road and Bridge Committee also directed staff to write a <br />letter to Anoka County asking them for permission to open cut C.R. #56 at the location <br />across from 143rd for the extension of sewer and water (Burger King). Staff is to make <br />certain that Anoka County Commissioner Berg receive a copy of the letter and that the <br /> <br />City Council/September 8, 1998 <br /> Page 8 of 11 <br /> <br /> <br />
