• MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING <br />HELD JANUARY 11, 1993 <br />( #14) DEMOLITION COSTS OLD FACILITIES — CRYSTAL BAY <br />Moorse explained these are estimated quotes to demolition the <br />existing buildings at the former City facility site. <br />Gerhardson noted John Schoening would provide the equipment and <br />operator and Blackowiak would provide the container and access to <br />the landfill. He stated the prices are lower due to the time of <br />year. He noted the West Hennepin Historical Society has expressed <br />interest in using the Council Chambers and has suggested moving it <br />to the City property on Old Crystal Bay Road. <br />Kelley said he has discussed the buildings at the Crystal Bay site <br />with a neighbor who has expressed concern that the lumber building <br />be removed immediately because of safety reasons. The neighbor has <br />indicated the neighborhood residents are trying to formulate a plan <br />for the land and will be presenting their thoughts to the Council <br />in the near future. <br />Hurr suggested the Historical Society may wish to move their <br />existing building near the Council Chambers if Highway 12 is <br />• widened in its present location. <br />It was moved by Mayor Callahan, seconded by Hurr, to authorize <br />Staff to remove the existing lumber building as soon as possible, <br />at the cost presented or lower. Ayes 4, nays 0. <br />Hurr suggested that the wood from the lumber building may not be <br />desirable as wood chips due to the paint and nails. She suggested <br />staff consider disposal in a landfill. <br />( #15) ANNUAL PURCHASE OF NEW SQUAD CARS <br />Sullivan submitted additional information to the Council regarding <br />the purchase. He noted the cars to be replaced have very high <br />mileage which increases maintenance costs and becomes a safety <br />factor for the patrol men. He noted the costs presented are very <br />similar to those of last year. <br />Hurr asked how the excess funds from the sale of the vehicles will <br />be used. <br />Sullivan indicated the excess funds will be used for equipment for <br />the new cars and the change over cost of existing equipment. <br />Moorse stated the Department will only use funds that are <br />necessary. <br />• <br />0 <br />
