<br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: Lori Johnson, City Administrator <br /> <br />FROM: Terry Maurer, City Engineer ~ <br /> <br />DATE: March 23, 2007 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Cretex Companies Invoice <br /> <br />Back in October of 2006, the City Council agreed to participate financially with Cretex <br />Companies for the development of a pond on Upland Avenue just west of their plant. <br />Cretex Companies removed three houses and regarded the area to provide ponding for the <br />runoff from their plant site. They will complete the project this spring by landscaping the <br />area. The City Council agreed to fund $60,000 for the construction of the pond in exchange <br />for 17 feet of additional right of way easement along Upland Avenue and a drainage and <br />utility easement over the entire ponding area. Attached is an invoice from Cretex <br />Companies in the amount of $62,000. $60,000 is the agreed upon participation. In addition, <br />we had Brenteson Companies, under the direction of Dave Anderson, do some additional <br />grading on the south side of TH 10 around an Elk River Municipal Utilities electrical line to <br />ensure that there would be proper drainage from the pond being constructed on the north <br />side of TH 10. Cretex Companies paid Brenteson for this work with the understanding that <br />the City would reimburse them for work off of the pond site. We have worked closely with <br />Dave Anderson to ensure that the work was done according to the conceptual plan <br />developed by City staff. We would recommend approval of the payment of $62,000 to <br />Cretex Companies for this project. <br /> <br />If you have any questions or need any additional infonnation regarding this, please contact <br />me. <br /> <br />~~ <br /> <br />'S IN ('J\ <br /><-\oL1 <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />S:\Engineer\2007 memos\03 23 07 LJ Cretex.doc <br />
