P.02/03 F-g36 <br /> <br />Page 2 <br />Special mccting of thc Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission <br />May 30, 2000 <br /> <br /> John Dietz noted that he is opposed to anything other than the 3.2 I% across the <br />board increase, which was awarded to the electric line crew. <br /> <br /> lames Tralle moved to re-evaluate the points for the Utility Worker positions. <br />The motion died due to the lack of a second. <br /> <br /> Staff was directed to re-visit the issue of points in relation to the Utility Worker <br />positions in the fall of 2000. <br /> <br />4.2 ]Review and Consider Bids for UnOergr~Iund Electric Cable ][ngtallati0n Elk <br /> River Crossinos Develonment <br /> <br /> Staff and Commission reviewed the Bid Tabulation for the Underground <br />Electrical Cable Installation for Elk River Crossings. Staffviews the bids as very good, <br />and recommends the Bid be awarded to the apparent low bidder, Aconite Corporation at <br />$28,225.00. George asked about the cost of junction boxes, and was responded to by <br />Bryan Adams and Glenn Sundeen. <br /> <br /> James Tralle moved to award the Bid for Underground Electric Cable Installation <br />for Elk River Crossings to Aconite Corporation. George Zabee seconded the motion. <br />Motion carried 3-0. <br /> <br />5.1 Review and Consider Ea.~tern Area Water Pressure Zone Re-Configuration <br /> <br /> Low water pressure in the Trou Brook Farm development area has led to concern <br />with the further development of the eastern area. Staff has directed Howard R. Green <br />Company personnel to review the situation and present their findings and opinions to the <br />Commission. The study concluded that due to the higher ground elevation north of <br />County Road 12, and East of the new Tyler Street, the lower pressure water system <br />cannot adequately serve the area. The high water pressure system will be required to <br />serve this area. In order to provide a high pressure water system to this area, the system <br />operation must be modified along with approximately $1,327,00.00 of new construction. <br />Some of these costs can be delayed and some of these costs may be developer paid. A <br />detailed discussion followed. <br /> <br /> James Tralle moved to install pressure reducing valves in the Elk Hills Addition, <br />Barrington Place, and Johnson Plat areas for approximately $32,000.00. George Zabee <br />seconded the motion. Motion carried 3-0. This will allow this area to be converted from <br />the low pressure system, to the high pressure system. <br /> <br /> <br />
