Memo m�.` TO: City Council Members FROM:Eric Johnson,y i tar "
WEEKLY NOTES-- September 9th,2016
Zoning!Development Items
1. The City has not received any new applications.
2. The SAHS has developed an interim Emergency Evac.Pian for the football field.That layout is attached.This stemmed from
some concerns being raised by the Fire Chief and the State Fire Marshall. In any event it appears all parties are generally
satisfied with the interim plan.
ST.Croix River Crossing
The City has been provided the STORM WATER AS-BUIt_TS—and has reviewed these in detail.Generally,except for one minor item
relating to a graphic,they are acceptable.
MNDOT then and Noe Imagery from Sept 8th Email.
Staff has apparently diagnosed some of the oomplications being experience by the Pressure reducing Station near Cover Park as being
due to some partially dosed valves located upstream.It is hoped that these operations will now normalize.
Qftemr-bmms
I did attend the staff work session held by the Washington County HRA for their development of the County-wide Economic development
Plan.It is hard to say what will come of the work plan and its timeline for implementation but first it is likely to identify issues and concerns
before there are particular work products implemented.This is a practical approach but where it goes from there is a more interesting
question.Our next meeting is in October
There will be an OPEN HOUSE at the Bayport Fire Department on Oct 15#1 and held in conjunction with fire Prevention Week. Please
see the enclosed information from Chief Elsinger.
The Community Advisory meeting planned for 9127 has been postponed until 2017.

Subject: Construction Update-September Sth
Commissioners and All:
This is the construction update for Tuesday, September 601.
We received a lot of rain Sunday and Monday night and are anticipating more rain this week. The rain
could delay work on a lot of our projects. The amount of work completed this week will depend on the
amount of rain we receive.
County 10 and County 16-Traffic Signal project
The first two lifts of pavement have been placed on all of the lanes and the roadway is open to
traffic. During the past week, the contractor was working on pedestrian ramps, trails and utility
relocations.

Wear course(final)paving is scheduled for this week, but could be delayed with the anticipated
rain. Final striping will occur about 10 days after final paving.

This past week, the contractor poured the concrete truck apron, and the pedestrian and snowmobile"cut
throughs". The final wear course pavement was placed on the north, south and west legs of the
intersection. The contractor also continued placing topsoil.

scheduled to begin last week, but was pushed back to avoid two closures on the CR 17 portion of the
project Sand and Gravel installation will continue downtown.
