Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />Jane 11, 1997 <br />Page Two <br /> <br />MnDOT would rather remove trees and/or trim trees rather than locate the fence further into the <br />highway right-of-way. The reason for this is that MnDOT is concerned about having to provide <br />maintenance on both sides of the fence. <br /> <br />Finally, we have researched the green vinyl-coated fence around the pond on 193rd Avenue. We <br />contacted Mr. Lee Anderson of Century Fence Company to inquire about the added cost of this <br />type of fence. He indicated it would add between $6.00 and $7.00 per linear foot. This additional <br />cost would be entirely borne by the City, according to Gary Dirlam. Based on approximately 12,000 <br />feet of fencing, the City's cost would be between $72,000 and $84,000 for vinyl coating. <br /> <br />At the. June 16, 1997, City Council meeting, I will have a set of plans and aerial photos available <br />if the Council would like to discuss any of these locations in detail. After the June 16 City Council <br />meeting, we will submit the plans and specifications to MnDOT for their review and approval. We <br />still anticipate a July letting of this project along with the lighting improvement project which MnDOT <br />is currently designing. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />Howard R, Green Company <br />Terry J.
