resurfacing. The Parks and Recreation Departrn.ent has been preparing for this project for
two years. .
During this planning process, the City Council voted to institute a prevailing wage policy.
Prevailing wage means that for projects that reach a ~ lao,a~a threshold, all laborers for
the -project are paid according to Minnesota Department of Labor w e studies. ~n addition

overall cast of the project..

for this and this could affect the overall cost of the project. r have communicated with the
City Administrator regarding v~ays to possibly address any increase in the allocated bud et
