O <br />Department Approval: <br />Name Ron Moorse <br />Title City Administrator <br />Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: <br />City Administrator’s <br />Report <br />Item Description: <br />Resolution Adopting the Assessment Roll for the Orono Ice Arena Water and Sewer Project <br />The extension of municipal water and sewer service was required to enable the Orono Ice Arena <br />project to move forward. The Orono Ice Arena Inc. and Orono School District each signed a petition <br />requesting the water and sewer extension project and indicating their willingness to pay 100 per cent <br />of the project cost. The initial estimate of the project cost was $102,995. In addition to this cost, <br />the Orono Ice Arena Inc. as part of its site utilities work installed two hydrants to provide for fire <br />suppression at the building site. Because these hydrants are generally owned and maintained by the <br />city, the city agreed to reimburse the Orono Ice Arena Inc. for their costs for the hydrants and assess <br />this back to the Orono Ice Area Inc. to be paid over a 15 year assessment period. This brought the <br />total water and sewer costs to $113,545. <br />Due to bids coming in substantially below the engineer's estimate, the actual cost of the project <br />including two hydrants is $95,210. This is a reduction of $18,335 or 16.1%. A resolution reflecting <br />the assessment for the water and sewer project is attached for Council adoption. <br />COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: <br />Motion to adopt a resolution adopting the assessment roll for the Ice Arena water and sewer project.
