FINANCE COMMITTEE <br />CITY OF RAMSEY <br />ANOKA COUNTY <br />STATE OF MINNESOTA <br /> <br />The Ramsey Finance Committee conducted a regular meeting on Tuesday, June 8, 1993 at <br />the Ratmey Municipal Center, 15153 Nowthen Boulevard N.W., Ramsey, Minnesota. <br /> <br />Members Present: <br /> <br />Mayor James Gilbertson <br />Councilmember Sheila Beyer (arrived 5:43 p.m.) <br />Councilmember Glen Hardin <br />Councilmember Kenneth Peterson <br />Counei!member Gerald Zimmerman <br /> <br />Also Present: <br /> <br />City Administrator Ryan Schroeder <br />Finance Officer Sandra Ashley Helling <br />City Engineer Steven Jankowald <br />Project Manager James Gromberg <br /> <br />CALL TO ORDER <br /> <br />Couneilmember Peterson called the regular meeting of the Finance Committee to order at <br />5:34 p.m. <br /> <br />CITIZEN INPUT <br /> <br />None <br /> <br />CONSENT AGENDA <br /> <br />None <br /> <br />APPROVE AGENDA <br /> <br />City Administrator Schroeder asked to add a resolution regarding trail funding to the <br />discussion of Case #2. <br /> <br />Consensus was to approve the agenda as amended. <br /> <br />COMMITTEE BUSINESS <br /> <br />Case #1: Comprehensive Water System Study <br /> <br />City En~neer Jankowski stated that within the last four years, the water system has <br />experienced a growth in customers to the point that customer use is approaching the <br />utilities' ~firm well capacity, the amount of water that can be supplied with the largest <br />producing well out of service. The City's lowest producing well could pump 350 gallons <br />per minut~ or 504,000 gallons per day. The utility presently has 504 customers having an <br />estimatedlaverage day demand of 161,000 gallons. He stated that last summer's peak to <br />average day water was 3.8, so that we might expect a peak day demand of 612,000 gallons <br />from current customers which would exceed our finn well capacity. He felt that an odd- <br />even day sprinkling ban together with the storage capacity of the elevated tank would <br />probably texluce the peak to average day ratio to 3.0 and allow the City to meet the demand <br />this sun~m~r. He felt that planning must be initiated so the necessary improvements can be <br />planned to meet the needs in 1994. A comprehensive study also addresses the system's <br />£ue proteca~n capacity and water quality issues. He stated that emergency contingencies <br />should also bo planned. <br /> <br />Finance Committee/June 8, 1993 <br /> Page 1 of $ <br /> <br /> <br />
