ITEM 6. TO: SUBJECT: MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL PAT KLAERS, CITY ADMIN~. TOR MARCH 17, 1993 ~~ CIP WORK SESSION FROM: DATE: A Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Work Session is scheduled for Monday, March 22, 1993, at the Elk River City Hall Conference Room. There are some business items to take care of before the CIP Work Session. The Executive Session of the City Council is scheduled to begin at 6:00 p.m. and it is anticipated that we will begin work on the CIP at approximately 8:00 p.m. At the last CIP Work Session on 2/15/93, the City Council reviewed the 1993-97 projects and the "pending" or non-programmed list of projects from the old 1990 CIP document. Almost all of the projects from these two lists were discussed in some detail. However, some of the projects may require additional discussion at this upcoming CIP meeting. On 2/15, the Council also discussed some special ongoing projects. These minutes are attached for your review. . The goal of this 3/22 CIP meeting is to review all potential new projects which the City Council would like to evaluate. Once this is completed, we should be able to begin discussing available finances. When discussing all the new projects that the City Council may wish to undertake in the next five years or so, it may be appropriate to consider adding potential special assessment projects. In the past, we have eliminated these projects from the CIP work list as the costs are mostly assessed out to benefitted property owners. However, we have heard comments about "not doing an improvement project in XXX area as it was not listed in the Capital Improvement Program". If this is going to be a rationale for the City to not undertake a project, or a justification for property owners to argue against an improvement project taking place, then the City may want to consider adding these potential special assessment improvements into our CIP list of projects. . 720 Dodge Avenue N.W., Elk River, Minnesota 55330 (612) 441-7420
