~~2 Drainage ~dessrs. Keller, Geisen and Guertin from Pascal Avenue were present to discuss drainage at Pascal and Ruggles and the poss- ibility of having a concrete culvert instaa_led in front of their homes. ?~Tr. Geisen said the culvert running dot^rn Ruggles and crossing Pascal is full of dirt; that one of Lametti's bull dozers had run over it and broken it, end that it had never been replaced just repaired temporarily w~.th apiece of pipe. Keller, 1852 No. Pascal, said he thinks the situation is all due to the sewer being put in arld if something isn't done, the road will wash into the ditch. Engineer Ljungren stated that, in his opinion, the best way to handle this for a year or so would. be to put a bituminous material in the bottom of the ditches, haul in Mack dirt for the slope, and peg sod. The matter will be studied further and P.7ayor Nilsen asked if these men vrould come to the next meeting vrhen they hope to have def- inite information. Holton John J. P~icDonough, 1891 Holton St., inquired about plans to lower Street the street and furnish black dirt. P.~ayor Nilsen advised him of the problem of doing over all these streets with the engineers and checking them before Craig Company comes in to complete their contract; that the Council had been advised to wait a couple weeks before this is done because the frost is not out of the ground yet and there is a possibility of further damage. 'Zr. "~cDonough also asked about load limits. He was advised that the State Law reads 4 ton from ~'Iarch 15th to •ay 15th, unless otherwise designated by the Council. He was advised that the County wants to use Garden and Albert as detours and if load limits were lifted now, heavy traffic would be on the streets. In answer to his question as to whether lowering Holton Street had been discussed, he was told that it had, but that no decision had 'peen reached. "`c Donough is to be notified when plans are complete. Fred Gardner, 1880 Holton, asked what the load restrictions on Roselawn were and he was told !~ ton until '..!ay 15th. Hamline, ton, Holton, 7 ton, by permit, and 3 ton on all newly fir_ished streets. Albert Smith, 1820 Holton, asked what was going to be done about drainage and repair of their street. He was +old checking v,-ould be done. He asked about resodding of their lot line. He was advised no decision had been made. John J. ;?cDonough, 1891 Holton, asked Ljungren if Holton was going to be lowered. Ljungren said it has not been definitely decided. Fred Kroeger, 1881 Holton, asked about establishing a grade for his x~ronosed concrete driveway. He was advised to wait until the grade for the street had been determined, and then after the street was surfaced, to line up his driveway with the center of the street; that that v~ould give him good drainage -- about a. 6" slope from his driveway and about a 6" slope from the center of the street to the gutter line. Storm Louis Payee, 1i 63 G~lifornia, asked if anything more had been done Sewer on the storm sewer. He was told nothing more had been done. i:2~eting had been continued to un indefinite time and that a notice would be published before holding another hearing.
