<br />City of New Brighton <br />March 22, 1983 <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Councilmember Janecek stated that she was <br />prepared to defer the project until the City <br />Engineer presented the cost of maintenance <br />versus reconstruction. She further stated <br />that streets must be maintained, and that <br />she was prepared to vote for the project. <br /> <br />Councilmember Benke felt there should be <br />other streets being repaired, such as Pike <br />Lake Drive, and that that illustrates the need <br />to anticipate needs before they occur, and that <br />the City could not afford to divert maintenance <br />funds away from other streets. <br /> <br />Mayor Harcus stated that there is a need to <br />review the City's selection process for replacing <br />streets. <br /> <br />Councilmember Benke stated that he had received <br />two copies of letters indicating support for <br />this project and requested that they be accepted <br />into the records. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Motion by Blomquist, seconded by Schmidt to <br />waive the reading and adopt a RESOLUTION <br />ORDERING IMPROVEMENT AND AUTHORIZING PREP- <br />ARATION OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE <br />PROPOSED RECONSTRUCTION OF 23rd AVE.
