Also present: Mr. Fran Mertes, representative of the Army Corp of
Engineers
Mr. Wm McComb, Consultant Engineer on Dam
Mr. Bob Adams, Drake Construction Co.
Discussion on nine construction of the dam.
Mr. Mertes of the Corp of Engineers discussed N11M their plans on the basis of
a severe flood once every 100 years, the estimated flood stage would be 42.5 ft.
If dikes were used for control of high water, they would have to be 3 feet above
this high water level or 45.5 feet. Dikes could be eliminated by altering the
design of the dam and with down river improvements. This should prevent damage
in the event of a flood.
Mr. Mertes suggested lowering thepermanent height of the new dam by 12 feet, and
substituting removable flashboards on top of the proposed new dam.
The council asked Mr. Mertes to have his recommendations put in letter form for
consideration by the council.
Mr Wm McComb, consultant engineer for drawing plans for the dam, was asked to
prepare an estimate of additional costs if the council followed the plan as
recommended by the Army Corp of Engineers.

SPECIAL COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS
January 31, 1966
A Special Council meeting was called to order by Mayor Fitzloff in the
Council Chambers at the hour of 7:30 P.M.
Members present: Aldermen Hanson, Kost, Linder, Attorney Schantzen, Engineer
Wilson
Members absent: Alderman Johnson
Also present: Consulting Engineer McCombs
/.
A letter was presented from William H. McCombs concerning the Crow River Dam
(attached).
Recommendations from the Corps of Engineers:
1. Place steel angle under gates approximate cost $ 30.00
2. Round end of gate walls with steel nosing 370.00
3. Lower crest of dam 18" and provide flash boards 625.00
(for fiberglas coating add $1100.00)
Motion was made by Alderman Kost, seconded by Alderman Hanson, that these
suggestions be carried through as follows:
1. City to provide material, contractor to install at no cost.
2. Round end of gate walls with 4 x 4 pieces of lumber.
3.Plywood frame, two coats of paint inside and out; based on drawings
submitted by Corps of Engineers.
Motion carried.
Two recommendations from McCombs & Hansen, additions necessary -
1. When the site was excavated, areas of unstable soil were found under
the proposed slab. This necessitated additional excavation and
backfill with stable material. It is recommended that the contractor
be authorized to proceed with this work on a time and material basis.
The cost should not exceed $600.00.
2. . . . We therefore recommend that you consider constructing a sheet
piling wall (adjacent to flume) for approximately 20 feet along the
face of the rubble wall. This could also be accomplished on a time
and material basis with the maximum cost not to exceed $3900.00.
Alderman Hanson made a motion, seconded by Alderman Linder, that recommendation
No. 1 be approved. Motion carried.
Alderman Kost made a motion, seconded by Alderman Hanson, that the contractor
be authorized to proceed with recommendation No. 2. Carried.
Discussion of possible financing for Hutch Growth industrial site development.
