this equipment--from TtJallace and Tiernan Company, and from Fischer and Porter
Company; the bid of Fis'kher and Porter Company not meeting specifications for
a water diaphragn chlorinator; the al%ernate bid of Wallace and Tiernan
Company not meeting these specifications either. He presented Banister
Engineering Companyts -recornendation for award of contract to Wallace and
Tiernan Company in the amount of $6,823.00 for Two Prater Diaphragm Chlorinators
and Six Flwaidators, plus $2,246,00 for one additional Chlorinator and one

were - 1. Chlorine purchased today contains inpurif&es. 2. 'I.la-ter usage in
Edina varies greatly between winter and summer months, resulting in certain
r.rells not being used at times. I*lhen unused wells are starbed up, iron" canted
of water from them is high. This iron content could affect operation of the
mechanical diaphragm type. 3. Village now has four water diaphragm type
chlorinators, and uniformity of equipment is desirable from standpoint of
operating personnel. Bianager Hyde recommended amrd to %illace and Tiernan
Company at their base bid of $6,823.00, with option of purchasing additional
equipment at $2,246.00, depending on how many wells trill be in use next year.
Bank's motion,, that bid be arwded in accordance with E.lanagerts recommendation,

I AWARD OF BIDS FOR STABILIZED RUE FOR YORK Am BE=ct.TEEN W.59TH AND IL6OTH STREETS
(Supplemental to Sanitary Sewer Improvement No. 81) Manager Hyde explained that
bids had been taken Septe~eY 10; that only one bid had been received--that of
Earl Sewall at $2,220. P.Ir. Eugene Finkenauer, 5900 York Ave. So., protested increase in this bid over the $1,365.00 Estimate of Cost made by the Engineers at the time of
the Public Hearing on the Improvement. He stated he feels that a 60 to 65%
difference points to a miscalculation in the estimate made by the engineering
deparbment. IIr. Bredesen pointed out that bids increased some 30% this year,
over last year; that only one bid was received, which would tend to prove that
contractors are very busy; that this, in turn, vmuld bring prices higher. 14r.
C.14. Scott, 5920 York Ave. So,, asked if it would be possible to get the t-rork
completed this year, and Ilk. Hyde replied that, if bid is awarded this evening,
work could be done. Bredesen's motion, for award of bids to Earl A. Saval.1 a%

because of the very heavy rains, and should not be pnalized because of this

do not object to the area as a park,or as a reasonable development for recreational
facilities for the children in the immediate area; that they do object to its
proposed use because it will depreciate the value of the homes in the area by
some $10,000 per home and that it will have a detrimental effect on the enjoyment
of the houses in the way they were intended to be enjoyed.
that the area of the park has recently been increased; that part of the lake has
now been filled.

baseball diamonds and two softball fields.,_,@.-Strong asked that, if this area
is to be developed (1) it be developed in a rea$onable perspective to the area
it is going to serve--maybe one baseball diamond, or two, now, with a wait to
see what use would be made of them, before proceeding further; or (2) perhaps,
instead of baseball and softball fields, there should be more variety of
activities planned. He asked that the Village give some consideration to the
surrounding land omers and how the park development trill affect them, insofar
as sodding, tree planting, and landscaping are concerned.
that the estimated grading cost of $6,000 will over-run somewhat, principally
because of the purchase of additional land; that he feels we should do some
other work in the park this year, rather than leave this as a bare field; that
for some $3,500 we can seed the entire low spot with rye grass, plant several
trees along Glengarry Parkway, and landscape behind backdrops. He stated that,

explained that, before present project was instituted, he had met with League
of IqJomen Voters groups and a committee of home owners in the area, and had
received enthusiastic agreement on this development. He explained that present
plans call for year-around activity--skating, sliding, etc.; that 30" high bank
can be kept in turf, which should be of definite advantage to the area.
stated that this should be thought of as more than a neighborhood park,
