WEBVTT

00:00.000 --> 00:07.000
We will call the meeting to order at seven o'clock.

00:07.000 --> 00:09.000
Please stand for the pledge.

00:09.000 --> 00:16.000
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.

00:16.000 --> 00:26.000
And to the republic for which it stands, for our nation, for the god, and the Israel of the Republic of Israel.

00:39.000 --> 00:43.000
Are there any additions or corrections to the agenda?

00:43.000 --> 00:53.000
I would, or I believe we have a snow ordinance out there someplace that we were in the middle of reviewing and haven't seen it come back yet.

00:53.000 --> 00:57.000
So it'd be nice to get it on next month's agenda.

00:57.000 --> 00:59.000
That was snow removal?

00:59.000 --> 01:00.000
Yes.

01:00.000 --> 01:01.000
Okay.

01:01.000 --> 01:05.000
You want to make note of that, Quentin?

01:05.000 --> 01:06.000
Yep.

01:06.000 --> 01:13.000
Any other additions or corrections?

01:13.000 --> 01:15.000
Motion to approve.

01:15.000 --> 01:16.000
Agenda is written.

01:16.000 --> 01:17.000
All in favor?

01:17.000 --> 01:18.000
Aye.

01:18.000 --> 01:19.000
Aye.

01:19.000 --> 01:20.000
4-0.

01:20.000 --> 01:22.000
Consent agenda.

01:22.000 --> 01:23.000
All right.

01:23.000 --> 01:25.000
You have your minutes from our last meeting, June 8th.

01:25.000 --> 01:28.000
You have the receivables and also the payables.

01:28.000 --> 01:35.000
I did want to point out, out of the utility end, there were a couple of pay estimates made for the utility project.

01:35.000 --> 01:41.000
So they're not in your packet, they are on the checks that we're going to send out tomorrow.

01:41.000 --> 01:45.000
And that comes right out of that bond that we took out for the project.

01:45.000 --> 01:52.000
Other than that, everything's pretty routine as far as the payables go.

01:52.000 --> 02:04.000
In the revenues of expenses, we appear to be, our expenses appear to be way ahead of the revenues.

02:04.000 --> 02:08.000
I'm assuming that's because we haven't got a June in a year.

02:08.000 --> 02:10.000
The tax property taxes.

02:10.000 --> 02:11.000
Yep.

02:11.000 --> 02:12.000
Yep.

02:12.000 --> 02:13.000
Yep.

02:13.000 --> 02:18.000
I had one other question.

02:18.000 --> 02:26.000
Some place.

02:26.000 --> 02:31.000
If I don't find it, we're going to come back to it.

02:31.000 --> 02:36.000
I'll just come up and get my answer to you.

02:36.000 --> 02:40.000
I'm going to have to do that.

02:40.000 --> 02:46.000
There it is.

02:46.000 --> 02:55.000
Under the payables, the electricity, we have a concession stand meter apparently.

02:55.000 --> 03:00.000
And I could not think of where the city owned a concession stand.

03:00.000 --> 03:03.000
So it's parked hopefully.

03:03.000 --> 03:05.000
That shed?

03:05.000 --> 03:06.000
Yep.

03:06.000 --> 03:15.000
All right.

03:15.000 --> 03:18.000
Motion to approve the consent agenda.

03:18.000 --> 03:19.000
All in favor?

03:19.000 --> 03:20.000
Aye.

03:20.000 --> 03:25.000
Public forum.

03:25.000 --> 03:33.000
Do we have anybody here that would like to speak to public forum?

03:33.000 --> 03:36.000
Public forum.

03:36.000 --> 03:39.000
Moving on.

03:39.000 --> 03:42.000
Notice is in communications.

03:42.000 --> 03:45.000
Nada.

03:45.000 --> 03:49.000
Council reports.

03:49.000 --> 03:53.000
I have nothing from Park Road.

03:53.000 --> 04:02.000
And I don't think they have anything for media that was reported on last time.

04:02.000 --> 04:13.000
Other than we did do the first farmer's mark that we had eight or nine vendors down there, everybody was happy about it.

04:13.000 --> 04:15.000
Good turn off.

04:15.000 --> 04:18.000
You know, we didn't have music that night.

04:18.000 --> 04:20.000
So the vendors were happy.

04:20.000 --> 04:27.000
So I think we must have had enough turn off to keep them happy.

04:27.000 --> 04:30.000
That's good.

04:30.000 --> 04:33.000
Park meetings next week.

04:33.000 --> 04:40.000
Plan commission meets on Wednesday for a joint EDA meeting.

04:40.000 --> 04:46.000
We did not meet last week because we will meet last week.

04:46.000 --> 04:49.000
I don't have anything either.

04:49.000 --> 04:53.000
Golf courses coming along.

04:53.000 --> 05:02.000
Utility board met prior to our last meeting and I shared with you everything I learned there.

05:02.000 --> 05:07.000
That is about it.

05:07.000 --> 05:10.000
Administrator report.

05:10.000 --> 05:15.000
You really don't have much because I really wasn't here.

05:15.000 --> 05:20.000
Physically and emotionally.

05:21.000 --> 05:26.000
You have the cash balance report dated last Thursday.

05:26.000 --> 05:30.000
And then this week I will be attending the league conference in Rochester.

05:30.000 --> 05:33.000
That's Wednesday through Friday.

05:33.000 --> 05:42.000
You have the brief from the coalition of greater Minnesota cities and also was just going to add staff.

05:42.000 --> 05:46.000
I think Jason and Andrea met with Sam Bournick last week.

05:46.000 --> 05:49.000
He's looking at the remaining five lots.

05:50.000 --> 05:55.000
We are working with him on that and maybe things will get rolling here sooner or later.

05:55.000 --> 05:58.000
They are moving dirt out there.

05:58.000 --> 06:00.000
Do you have anything to add?

06:00.000 --> 06:01.000
Is that good enough?

06:01.000 --> 06:05.000
Yeah, we will go through some of the final details in a second.

06:05.000 --> 06:08.000
Check in the boxes and make sure you are good.

06:08.000 --> 06:12.000
Once all of those permits come in you should be able to start building the pipes.

06:12.000 --> 06:14.000
Perfect.

06:14.000 --> 06:22.000
That's good.

06:22.000 --> 06:28.000
That's all I have.

06:28.000 --> 06:33.000
Motion to accept the administrator report.

06:33.000 --> 06:35.000
All in favor?

06:35.000 --> 06:36.000
Aye.

06:36.000 --> 06:42.000
Aye.

06:42.000 --> 06:57.000
For stop under administration appointment to City Council.

06:57.000 --> 07:00.000
Mr. Jim want me to elaborate on that or do you?

07:00.000 --> 07:02.000
I don't care.

07:02.000 --> 07:08.440
Jim is willing to serve the remainder of Andy Almond's council seat for the remainder of this year.

07:10.080 --> 07:12.720
Thanks boss. I call you boss again.

07:18.880 --> 07:24.520
I'm ocean to approve resolution 2026-17

07:24.520 --> 07:35.400
that is the date that expires on December 31st yep all in favor

07:35.400 --> 07:42.440
all right hi that's swirl congrats Jim and thank you do you have your name

07:42.440 --> 07:44.440
you take still

07:51.800 --> 07:57.000
whatever you want your old seat back you want your old seat back

08:13.400 --> 08:21.160
thank you moving on next item is renaming north street park yeah the park

08:21.160 --> 08:25.920
board met at their last meeting and we did discuss this actually it was Andy

08:25.920 --> 08:31.000
Almond's idea he brought it to our attention to rename north street park

08:31.000 --> 08:37.640
in honor of Andy Arnold to name it Andy Arnold Memorial Park and Joe has been

08:37.720 --> 08:42.600
visiting with some folks already about kind of ideas for the sign and I know

08:42.600 --> 08:50.680
you had some ideas you've shared yesterday a monument that's good idea to do it

08:50.680 --> 08:54.680
and quite honestly the other parks in town we probably should not rename

08:55.640 --> 09:00.840
because some of the parks were specifically dedicated for the specific

09:00.840 --> 09:04.520
purpose of what their title is so nursery park was probably the easiest

09:05.160 --> 09:10.360
and we'll find out here in a few minutes but we are looking at doing a

09:10.360 --> 09:14.200
reconstruct project on North Street next summer so it would be nice if we could

09:14.200 --> 09:19.720
have you know a sign a monument put up there on a brand new street makes sense

09:19.720 --> 09:26.120
I like it good timing make a motion to approve

09:26.840 --> 09:31.640
second all in favor all right that's for

09:37.320 --> 09:43.080
next item closed portion of west second yes next monday june 29th the library

09:43.080 --> 09:47.480
is hosting a little library carnival they've done that in the past it's usually the last

09:47.480 --> 09:53.000
money of june but they have outside games and activities and things like that for

09:53.080 --> 09:57.720
mainly for children so they have asked that we close a portion of west second

09:57.720 --> 10:02.040
street so they can put things on the street so it would be closed from the main street to

10:02.040 --> 10:09.720
basically the alley if that makes sense and it will be june 29th from 1230 to 3

10:11.000 --> 10:14.040
which alley the alley they don't line up

10:15.320 --> 10:20.920
the alley is don't line up do they they should like like the alley behind the purple goose

10:20.920 --> 10:27.720
which is the one that goes by in the library yeah it wouldn't be it's not

10:27.720 --> 10:28.520
off by much of

10:33.400 --> 10:41.720
high-motion we adopt resolution 2026 dash 19 all in favor all right

10:42.920 --> 10:43.720
that's for all

10:43.720 --> 10:57.000
yeah about every correct me if i'm wrong mark but i think about every seven years or

10:57.000 --> 11:03.400
so we need we are asked to sign a joint powers agreement to approve with the state

11:03.400 --> 11:08.920
so that we have the opportunity to have the continued access to some of the state

11:09.720 --> 11:14.360
bca criminal justice information things like that

11:15.240 --> 11:19.880
so this joint powers agreement will do that mark is there anything else to add to it

11:19.880 --> 11:24.200
i mean it's pretty much the exact same thing as seven years yeah is it five

11:30.520 --> 11:30.840
okay

11:34.280 --> 11:34.760
thank you

11:38.920 --> 11:45.160
all in favor

11:50.920 --> 11:52.520
all right please chief

11:55.160 --> 11:58.120
yeah personal committee met earlier today and do you guys want to

12:00.280 --> 12:00.760
report

12:00.760 --> 12:07.800
to do that um three of us met today we

12:09.800 --> 12:19.800
talked and are recommending that we post the job opening one more time with the full range pay

12:21.480 --> 12:22.840
in the description

12:23.720 --> 12:33.160
and we will not go with a uh we will not be going with a firm to help us find candidates

12:34.120 --> 12:40.360
so between the two firms that we had been looking at if you recall the cost was anywhere from 14

12:40.360 --> 12:48.280
to over twenty thousand dollars and we did discuss today that a very large majority of their

12:49.080 --> 12:53.720
proposals we've already done right i mean as far as job descriptions job ads

12:54.280 --> 13:00.360
interview questions are ready to go all that stuff so decided to do it that way um

13:01.080 --> 13:08.360
and all current applications are still you know available so there's no need to reapply

13:08.360 --> 13:16.520
things like that so correct and i will do my bestest to get those posted tomorrow

13:17.400 --> 13:22.200
um before i take off if not i will definitely have them you know ready to go on monday

13:24.600 --> 13:29.080
how does the full range of that i don't even know yeah um

13:32.520 --> 13:34.440
thank you one at one point in that thought

13:35.400 --> 13:37.400
yeah

13:41.880 --> 13:50.280
it was last january would dda dda went through that davey drowns associates when they did

13:50.920 --> 13:52.680
all of the departments

13:59.160 --> 14:01.400
yeah

14:02.200 --> 14:05.960
so if the council is okay with that if you could

14:07.800 --> 14:09.720
take their recommendation and discuss it

14:12.440 --> 14:17.160
we were talking like mid-july maybe just let it run a couple weeks 10 days something like that

14:17.160 --> 14:17.720
just to see

14:23.240 --> 14:29.320
and i i just want to explain to the original job ad when we posted the salary range we went

14:29.320 --> 14:34.280
from like step three to step six or something like that instead of all nine stuff instead of

14:34.280 --> 14:39.320
one to nine we kind of did the middle but maybe other people from outside jane's will have

14:39.320 --> 14:45.320
suggested that we do the minimum the maximum in the advertisements so give that a shot

14:45.960 --> 14:52.840
can we further discussion on that and move forward with that

14:58.440 --> 14:59.480
public utilities

15:02.680 --> 15:09.480
2027 street or public works sorry not public utilities 2027 street and utility improvements

15:10.280 --> 15:12.920
okay let me draw this up here quick

15:15.000 --> 15:16.120
i have a handout here

15:18.280 --> 15:21.720
okay awesome thank you look at that all fancy

15:26.680 --> 15:28.040
hey good reason to be here bill

15:31.480 --> 15:33.320
yeah but we still get the bills

15:33.480 --> 15:34.360
thank you

15:36.920 --> 15:41.560
well good i'm glad they're still coming through all right good evening everybody

15:41.560 --> 15:46.680
for those of you that don't know me i'm Jason femmerate the city engineer with bolton and

15:46.680 --> 15:52.360
mink been the city engineer about as long as clinton spin here so uh been uh blessed to be

15:52.360 --> 15:56.280
you know working for you guys and it's been a few years since we've done a project which year was

15:56.280 --> 16:05.560
it 23 24 so um i think allen was last one wasn't it yep yep yep

16:06.360 --> 16:11.800
so what i wanted to do is just we usually just kind of do a work session introduction to what

16:11.800 --> 16:17.080
we kind of have in front of us there's a long schedule um that's here and we're at the very

16:17.080 --> 16:22.200
top of it but what i did want to do is take a just a step back of how did we get to this point

16:22.200 --> 16:27.720
the city has uh uh adopted and continues to update the capital improvement plan

16:28.360 --> 16:36.440
and the last one was adopted in uh november of 2024 and that outlined a project in 27

16:36.440 --> 16:41.560
and a project in 29 a reconstruction project that includes all the utilities

16:41.560 --> 16:50.520
curb and gutter a sidewalk if there is and then uh street itself um within that adopted uh cip

16:50.520 --> 16:57.720
we had two projects like i said 27 and 29 um the one that was scheduled for 2027 was second

16:57.720 --> 17:05.640
street between west and main street and then a small um section of skucca um between

17:06.280 --> 17:13.080
a second and third street however um we've been talking as a city staff and what we'd like to do

17:13.080 --> 17:19.960
is to flip flop the each project um uh previously the the 29 project was going to be the north street

17:19.960 --> 17:25.560
project and then that little stretch of skucca here south of the railroad uh however working with

17:25.560 --> 17:31.400
uh the public utilities and looking at a number of water main breaks in in that north street area

17:31.400 --> 17:38.440
we feel like that is appropriate to get to that project first um before we've experienced further

17:38.440 --> 17:43.720
uh water main breaks so um when we were putting these together we looked at sanitary sewer we looked

17:43.720 --> 17:47.960
at water main we looked at street conditions and did the best we could with the information that

17:47.960 --> 17:52.920
we had but since that time uh water main breaks have been happening up in that area so we talked

17:52.920 --> 17:57.960
about it's just flip flop and no so it's essentially a two years difference so what i'm bringing forward

17:57.960 --> 18:04.440
tonight is uh that updated area so if you go to that second page you can see that's the

18:04.440 --> 18:11.080
reconstruction projects highlighted there 27 and 29 and when we get done with this project

18:11.080 --> 18:18.280
we'll update the cip again we'll look at everything and have that uh second street and that small

18:18.280 --> 18:25.640
section of skucca for the 29 project we'll look at new pricing and uh so we can continue to plan

18:25.640 --> 18:32.600
for the future so those those two areas uh the second two pages are just those areas kind of

18:32.600 --> 18:41.400
highlighted in red you can see on that north or that west north street those x's the red x's

18:41.400 --> 18:47.160
with the white circle that is a water main break you can see that in the legend so we got one two

18:47.160 --> 18:53.880
three four five six seven water main breaks in that area so uh we're continuing to have to

18:53.880 --> 18:59.880
replay repair of those and which cost the city and taxpayers money so it makes sense to

18:59.880 --> 19:07.080
try and get this project going as soon as we can the second page is that small section of skucca

19:07.080 --> 19:11.240
street that you know we've done all the projects in and around there and that's the one that just

19:11.240 --> 19:17.080
really never never got addressed during any of the other project but it's been out in the radar

19:17.080 --> 19:24.120
for us to get after that within this project the last page is kind of a breakdown a very

19:24.920 --> 19:31.320
um cip level capital improvement plan level of some of the costs expected so i think we're

19:31.320 --> 19:36.120
looking at about a two point two million dollar project which is about in line of what we were

19:36.120 --> 19:43.320
talking about uh previously with the cip again every year project cost change bid prices change

19:43.880 --> 19:50.360
uh things like that so um if we go back to the first page again we're here at step number one

19:51.080 --> 19:53.480
uh so we're oh sorry

19:56.920 --> 20:01.880
at the work session just kind of introducing what where what the project is to the council so what

20:01.880 --> 20:07.720
we're i'd be looking for at your next meeting is authorizing us to prepare the preliminary

20:07.720 --> 20:14.280
engineering report so that's a more of a formal report it's required under minnesota state

20:14.760 --> 20:21.080
chapter 429 which is what we'll be following because we will be a levying improvement

20:21.080 --> 20:27.400
assessments to the properties within this project we'll come up with a preliminary assessment role

20:27.400 --> 20:33.960
preliminary costs a preliminary layouts and a description of reasons why we'd be doing this

20:33.960 --> 20:41.000
project so it's a formal engineering report that is required under that uh statute that we are

20:41.080 --> 20:47.560
following um to uh kind of set the table for the project after we go through that

20:48.760 --> 20:53.080
uh the county council will call for an improvement hearing uh that's that step four

20:53.720 --> 20:57.960
um so that would be in august we'll advertise for that hearing and we'll be holding that

20:57.960 --> 21:02.840
improvement hearing back here so we'll be sending out notices to all of the property owners

21:02.840 --> 21:09.400
and this is a formal um hearing where i'll uh explain the feasibility report to all of the property

21:09.400 --> 21:15.400
owners and answer any questions that they have about that process it'll give them an

21:15.400 --> 21:20.760
opportunity to see what a potential a preliminary assessment for their properties will be

21:20.760 --> 21:28.040
will be presented at that hearing going down to step number seven we hold an open house meeting

21:28.040 --> 21:33.080
here at city hall so we'll get into the design after we have that assessment or that improvement

21:33.080 --> 21:39.080
hearing and then put together some boards and invite all the property owners in here to ask

21:39.080 --> 21:43.160
some of those more individual questions that they have that they maybe don't want to ask

21:43.160 --> 21:47.960
during a formal hearing and they can be more one-on-one with city staff and the engineers

21:48.520 --> 21:54.360
uh questions that they may have about their driveway the length of uh duration of the project just

21:54.360 --> 21:59.000
any of the specific questions that we have we find that's a really a helpful tool to kind of set

21:59.000 --> 22:03.960
the table for these projects again i put myself in their position that you know i do this for a

22:03.960 --> 22:08.360
living so i obviously kind of know what we're doing let it kind of has a little round idea

22:08.360 --> 22:12.840
what we're doing up there too but a little bit um but if you're the idea if you don't know what

22:13.400 --> 22:18.200
this whole process entails and stuff so being able to ask those real questions and then be

22:18.200 --> 22:23.160
able to answer that kind of helps set the table you know calm some of their fears about what's

22:23.160 --> 22:30.200
coming and uh kind of sets the table here for uh what this whole process is so we've been doing

22:30.280 --> 22:34.360
that for many years now and it's been some of the best things that we've implemented

22:34.360 --> 22:38.600
that uh we technically don't have to do but we feel like it's very valuable

22:39.160 --> 22:44.200
um then we'll have a pre-design meeting we'll continue to go through the the plan design process

22:44.200 --> 22:49.880
city council will approve plans and specifications at the february meeting so i'll present those final

22:49.880 --> 22:56.440
plans final um estimated construction cost then we'll bid the project put the plans and specs out

22:56.520 --> 23:03.000
on the street ask for contractors to bid on that we'll open the bids in march um which is a good

23:03.000 --> 23:09.160
time uh historically we try and position ourselves in the city of jane so this is a pretty consistent

23:09.160 --> 23:13.800
schedule that we follow on most of our projects we like to get out in front of them making sure

23:13.800 --> 23:18.440
we're kind of hitting these milestones bidding it during the most favorable time of the year

23:18.440 --> 23:25.240
obviously you know early early spring late winter when contractors are actively looking to

23:25.240 --> 23:30.600
add work to their schedules so we find that's a historically a good time you know that was asked

23:30.600 --> 23:35.400
once the best time to bid a project every year is a little bit different but historically this is

23:35.400 --> 23:42.760
a pretty tried and true time uh for a project like this so once we receive those bids i'll take

23:42.760 --> 23:47.880
those numbers put them back into the assessment role and we'll come up with the final assessment

23:47.880 --> 23:54.440
role so that's the final numbers that each individual property will be assessed based on the bid

23:54.440 --> 23:58.920
prices and things like that so then we'll hold another hearing here that's called the assessment

23:58.920 --> 24:05.720
hearing uh we'll hold that in about april and that will be presenting the final assessment role

24:05.720 --> 24:11.640
and at that time at the council chooses that's when we can award the contract to the to the lowest

24:11.640 --> 24:19.480
bidder at that specific time there in april uh at after that happens we'll go through with the

24:19.560 --> 24:25.480
contractor get the contracts things like that done what we do like to hold here is a second

24:25.480 --> 24:30.360
open house meeting just prior to construction we've gotten the contractor on board we have a

24:30.360 --> 24:35.560
tentative schedule um we'll introduce some of the the team that's going to be out there the

24:35.560 --> 24:39.800
engineering representative that'll be out on the project they can continue to ask questions

24:39.800 --> 24:44.200
because maybe they forgot from the ones the questions that they asked in november and now

24:44.200 --> 24:48.200
we're getting closer to you know times when the project's going to be happening and then

24:48.200 --> 24:53.160
they're going to be digging up the road so allows just that second opportunity again to to answer

24:53.160 --> 24:57.480
questions so that during the construction project you know we see a lot less questions coming

24:57.480 --> 25:02.360
through city hall and that's the goal is to try and communicate to everybody about what's happening

25:02.360 --> 25:09.240
and keeping people informed so um we'll hold that again here at city hall time to be determined what

25:09.240 --> 25:15.080
makes sense but uh we're really trying to hold it a few weeks before the contractor starts

25:15.080 --> 25:21.800
so within this i have begin construction um may of 2027 and the substantial completion

25:21.800 --> 25:26.920
about the end of october so that's all of the work other than the final the tuminous wear

25:26.920 --> 25:31.160
course will be put on contractor can start whenever they want we just tell them when they

25:31.160 --> 25:36.040
have to be completed so if they don't want to start until august that's fine but they just

25:36.040 --> 25:43.160
have to know that they have to get the project done by the end of october so um if we know that

25:43.240 --> 25:47.640
when they're tentatively starting we'll hold the open house before that so we're given the

25:47.640 --> 25:52.280
most up-to-date information because if they said we're we're not going to start until august

25:52.280 --> 25:57.480
there's really no reason to hold an open house in april um understanding that so that's why i

25:57.480 --> 26:02.520
have that to be determined we'll kind of figure that out once we get a contractor on board and

26:02.520 --> 26:07.320
then the final completion of everything is the following year that's that final bit of wear

26:07.320 --> 26:12.040
course that we put on so we dig up the road a couple of times like a sanitary sewer we got water

26:12.520 --> 26:18.600
storm sewer we let that road settle over one winter with just one level of two minutes down

26:18.600 --> 26:23.720
and then after that if there's any minor settlements that the contractor may be asked to address

26:23.720 --> 26:28.520
then we'll put that final layer down it allows some of that freeze-thaw cycle to happen and get

26:28.520 --> 26:36.040
the best road condition for long-term i know that's a lot of information but i just wanted to kind

26:36.040 --> 26:41.480
of set the table from you that i'm going to be here a fair amount you know through this process

26:41.480 --> 26:45.560
we'll keep this schedule up-to-date i love schedules and i love spreadsheets like to

26:45.560 --> 26:51.000
keep things current and keep the that this may change but if it does we'll continue to

26:51.000 --> 26:55.560
to update that but i feel like uh there unless there's some curveball that comes our way this is

26:55.560 --> 27:01.960
probably the pretty close to the schedule we'll go with so did you start off by saying you only

27:01.960 --> 27:07.720
do sidewalks for their currently sidewalk no i can get into that during the feasibility report

27:07.800 --> 27:12.360
the city policy is to put inside walks on one side of the street when we reconstruct a project

27:14.760 --> 27:20.120
the which side of the street is to be determined but so i'll bring that forward in the feasibility

27:20.120 --> 27:25.000
report sidewalk on one side of the street whether they i don't know do they exist out there right

27:25.000 --> 27:31.160
now no okay i don't know if there's any else yeah so we will with the feasibility report i'll

27:31.160 --> 27:35.880
bring forward putting in sidewalk on one side of the street because that's a city policy i say

27:36.840 --> 27:43.640
park yeah again there's lots of reasons to go into that less driveways less uh impacts

27:43.640 --> 27:48.280
parks on one side another reason why it should go on that side so if you were a tree used to take

27:48.280 --> 27:53.400
down if you have it on one side of the road yeah the only problem is though there's like these

27:53.400 --> 28:01.000
three first houses on that side they sit way lower than the road does but we throw a five-loss

28:01.000 --> 28:14.840
there yeah well yeah i mean just looking at this you you look at the north side there's a

28:14.840 --> 28:19.080
lot of homes along there a lot of driveways and stuff so trying to take the path of least

28:19.080 --> 28:24.200
resistance but we've got to be able to build it right putting in a sidewalk try and limit retaining

28:24.200 --> 28:29.240
walls if at all possible so that's where we got to kind of get into the process a little bit

28:29.960 --> 28:33.880
so we'll be identifying which trees need to come down highlighting those those are always

28:33.880 --> 28:39.480
a hot topic during open houses is is my tree coming down well this tree is with city streets

28:39.480 --> 28:45.960
in the city right away however people are get attached to their trees we uh is this as a as a

28:45.960 --> 28:53.720
city of tried to avoid impacting trees if at all possible but again this is construction

28:53.720 --> 28:57.720
and some of them are in the way and they're going to have to come down so plus you know so

28:57.800 --> 28:59.480
there's ash trees things like that so

29:02.440 --> 29:08.760
and the question may arise about sidewalks why is um first trees why is the fourth street have

29:08.760 --> 29:14.440
sidewalks in both that was determined you know by the council to put on both sides just because

29:14.520 --> 29:19.000
of heavy traffic so i can see that for north street though

29:26.520 --> 29:30.120
for these water means all like within a certain amount of time

29:30.680 --> 29:35.160
like it's been like the last two years no i think it's it's been longer it's been longer than

29:35.160 --> 29:39.720
that i said i i know there was a couple that happened was it last year of the year before

29:39.720 --> 29:44.040
yeah so that's where andrew brought this up just like man we're just been having we ran into a

29:44.040 --> 29:49.000
couple of recent i'll make note of what years those were in the in the feasibility report and

29:49.000 --> 29:54.760
talk about it again it's just we're justifying the reasons why we're replacing things and just

29:55.720 --> 30:00.360
not just coming in here and replacing them because uh we want to there's real reasons and

30:00.920 --> 30:05.240
this infrastructure has reached its useful life up there yeah i think they were really close

30:05.240 --> 30:11.000
together this is one of the oldest water mains in jane sell and it's only four inches so the

30:11.080 --> 30:16.600
orange water main is probably not four inches anymore right yeah historically with the water

30:16.600 --> 30:21.240
quality in jane sell and stuff that you you'll get that coating inside that so it could be a

30:21.240 --> 30:27.480
two to three inch through there so we'll see a drastic change in the uh delivering water

30:27.480 --> 30:30.920
within this area with the city standard eight inch water main we'll be going in

30:30.920 --> 30:39.080
yeah pretty straightforward schedule like jason had said this is

30:40.840 --> 30:45.880
pretty much the format that we've been using in the past um we do have the start date of

30:45.880 --> 30:50.120
may 2027 and jason had mentioned that maybe it's they don't quite start then i've

30:50.680 --> 30:55.560
a quick story in 2020 when we were doing four street we had this thing named cobit that existed

30:56.520 --> 31:02.680
so the first couple weeks they did not start that project in may because we were still shut down

31:02.680 --> 31:12.280
then they're staying at home or whatever it's called so very good does anybody have any more

31:12.280 --> 31:17.640
questions for jason so next meeting will be a resolution that you adopt that calls for the

31:17.640 --> 31:23.000
feasibility report yeah i think clinton will just present that resolution no no get moving on the

31:23.080 --> 31:26.040
feasibility report and so i'll be back to present that report

31:28.120 --> 31:31.320
very good all right thank you everybody thank you jason yep

31:36.920 --> 31:42.760
uh we have anything else i got nothing except bad grammar

31:42.760 --> 31:50.520
one second all in favor

31:50.520 --> 31:53.560
eight eight four

31:57.560 --> 31:59.800
yeah all sorry
