Minutes of the special meeting of the City Council of Apple Valley, Dakota County,
Minnesota, held June 21st, 1984, at 8:00 o'clock p.m. at City Hall pursuant to due
call and notice thereof.
PRESENT: Mayor Branning; Councilmembers Goodwin, Holton and Humphrey; Clerk Asleson.
ABSENT: Councilmember Savanick.
Mayor Branning called the meeting to order at 8:04 p.m.
Jon Gurban distributed copies of a memo dated June 20, 1984, concerning Valleywood
Golf Course's irrigation system. A three-year phased plan for improvements to the
system was approved in 1983. In 1983, the sprinkler heads were replaced. Price
quotes for labor and materials to replace the controller system were requested and
because they were more than $15,000, sealed bids were requested. It had become
evident that the controller system could not be repaired in two phases and this work
would now complete the three-year plan.
Mr. Asleson said because the improvements were anticipated to be implemented over a
three-year period, the 1984 capital improvement budget would be exceeded by $15,000
if the contract is awarded now. However, it would not require funding in 1985. An
alternative would be to delay the entire project until 1985. It appears that other
areas of the budget will not be exceeded and cash is available to make the improve-
ments now.
MOTION: of Holton, seconded by Goodwin, adopting Resolution No. 1984-
95 determining that the best interests of the City would be
served by completing improvements to Valleywood Golf Course's
irrigation system and awarding a contract to Aqua City Irriga-
tion, the only bidder, in the amount of $22,390.00 for the work.
Ayes - 4 - Nays - 0.

the Apple Valley Play Group and members of the public.
