Regular Council Meeting 10/24/05 Page 16 Mr. Buckholtz asked for an explanation. Mr. Metzung indicated that this is the north tunnel which experienced three blocks that were set low. They held water. Great Lakes Construction, in an effort to correct that problem, was going to pave the area. Mr. Metzung asked that the whole box be paved because the floor of the box would have been very slippery had it just been left in its concrete state. The cost of the $5,000 is being shared. We are paying approximately $4,000. They are paying approximately $1,000.00. It is $880 something I believe. Mr. Buckholtz asked if they were repairing what they did wrong and if we are paving the whole thing. Mr. Marquardt asked if this was for the extra paving. Mr. Saponaro indicated that we had approved a certain material to be used. Looking back, we determined it was not the best because it was very slippery and there is foot traffic. Something needed to be done in order to make it safe. This is the remediation to it. In essence, they did not do anything wrong. Mr. Marquardt asked how this tied in with the blocks being too low. Mr. Metzung indicated that they had several blocks that they needed to correct because they held water, so they worked it together so that they paid for their low blocks that were holding water and we paid for the rest. Mr. Saponaro added that in the aggregate you are going to get a better price for it if you put two projects into one. Roll Call: AYES: All NAYS: None Motion Carried Expenditure Authorized Before moving along to the next motions, Mrs. Mills advised that Mrs. Cinco will provide an explanation of the meeting that will be November 1St. The next items are in reference to the drainage and infrastructure problems. The meeting is at 7:00 p.m. November 1St for all effected residents and their neighboring residents. The Committee will be there, Mr. Cappello, Mrs. Cinco, Mr. Marrelli and Mr. Metzung. Mr. Buckholtz stated for the record that everyone signs off on these projects. Mr. Metzung responded that everyone signs off to allow us to enter their property to assess and look over the projects. He does not know if the form gives final approval for us to actually enter their property and do the work or to be subject to help pay for it. Mrs. Cinco advised that those forms will be available that night for the residents. There is language in the forms that discusses it. Mr. Metzung does not know if the original form discusses the payment and things of that nature. That is why there will be a meeting, to get everyone together and go through this. The new form gives final approval. Mr. Buckholtz indicated after this meeting we will get everyone's authorization and approval to move forward with these projects. Mrs. Cinco added their cooperation and payment. This is something that we said we would do for the residents originally. It worked out very well. Mr. Buckholtz asked if everyone will be notified. Mrs. Cinco indicated that letters are going out tomorrow morning. Mr. Buckholtz asked what happens if someone does not attend that meeting and we need to move ahead with that project. Mrs. Cinco said we will go to get their signature. Mrs. Cinco. hopes that the applicant will be responsible to go to that meeting, much like Ted
