<br />groundwater supply that would be corrected with the surface water supply. Water capacity will <br />run out in three years and some answers will be needed as to whether the DNR will allow more <br />ground water capacity or if the City will have a surface water treatment facility. In either case it <br />will eliminate the need for this temporary well house. <br /> <br />Mayor Pro Tern Elvigpointed out that the majority of this cost is not due to the stick structure, it <br />is the concrete slab and equipment included inside. He inquired about the downsizing of the <br />structure. <br /> <br />Civil Engineer II Linton explained the cost of the structure came in over the engineer's estimate. <br />The engineer has been working with the contractor to reduce the footprint and generate as much <br />cost savings as possible. Also, the chlorine room does not need as heavy duty of an air <br />conditioner. Cost savings are still being worked on by staff. <br /> <br />Public Works Director Olson indicated the cost savings may be up to $60,000, and would need to <br />be brought back as a change order. There had been consideration of going with liquid chlorine <br />instead of gas, but he is leery about that as their operators are used to dealing with gas chlorine. <br />Staff would like to get started on the construction as soon as possible, and the IUP is necessary <br />for construction. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Jeffrey, seconded by Councilmember Strommen, to adopt Resolution <br />#07-07-159A approving the issuance of an Interim Use Permit to the City of Ramsey public <br />Works Department allowing the construction of a temporary well house structure on the property <br />located at 15050 Armstrong Boulevard NW (Fire Station 1), Based on Findings of Fact #0799 <br />and declaring the terms of same. <br /> <br />Motion carried.
