MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD <br />• AUGUST 8, 1994 <br />MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT - Continued <br />2. Hurr requested that a work session be established to discuss the County Road <br />6 /Watertown Road improvements. Since the Highway 12 mediation meeting was <br />cancelled for August 23, a work session was scheduled for 8:00 a.m. on August 23, <br />1994. <br />3. Hurr reported on the committee meetings regarding Long Lake. City Administrator <br />Moorse confirmed that the Watershed District will be scheduled for a presentation at the <br />August 22, 1994 meeting. <br />4. Mayor Callahan commented on a letter received from the Regans at 3410 North Shore <br />Drive regarding public landings. He added the letter was well - written with valid <br />concerns and a reply would be made. Jabbour requested a copy of this letter be sent to <br />the DNR Trails and Waterways Department, the LMCD, and the Hennepin County <br />Public Works Department. <br />ENGINEER'S REPORT <br />1. City Engineer Cook reported that the Old Crystal Bay Road Bridge has been torn down <br />• with new construction to begin. <br />• <br />2. The Brown Road project will begin in about two weeks. <br />3. City Administrator Moorse explained the MWCC Reconveyance. In 1976 the MWCC <br />took over one of the City's sewer lines to use as an interceptor with a purchase <br />agreement over a 30 year period. In 1988, the MWCC decided to build their own <br />interceptor and no longer needed Orono's. The City then took the maintenance of the <br />former interceptor. Several years later, the MWCC requested that the City make payment <br />towards the interceptor. The City opposed this request. The MWCC has now made a <br />proposal wherein the remaining 12 years left on the payments to the City by the MWCC <br />would be somewhat reduced. Moorse felt the proposal was reasonable in concept, and <br />involved significantly less dollars than the MWCC's original proposal. <br />Hurr requested additional time to review the information and suggested discussion <br />continue at the next Budget meeting. <br />4. Mayor Callahan asked about the meeting scheduled regarding the Kelley Avenue <br />Drainage issue. City Administrator Moorse responded that an information meeting was <br />scheduled to meet with those people, approximately 6 or 8, potentially most directly <br />affected by a stormwater project. The Public Works Director and City Engineer will be <br />in attendance. <br />5 <br />
