MAYOR <br />Michael I.

Hanson, City Administrator <br />DATE: June 23, 2000 <br />RE: Goose Control <br />The goose count results have been received and are as follows: <br />East Savage Lake — 0 (a resident confirmed that no geese are present) <br />West Savage Lake — 0 (we have been told that geese are present) <br />Pioneer Park — 0 (no droppings evident) <br />St. Jude - Woodridge — 0 (geese have been observed in this area) <br />Grand Pre' — 30 young, 6 adults <br />Nadeau Park — 14 young, 6 adults <br />I have talked with Dr. Cooper regarding an alternative to the fixed -fee contract amount of <br />$2,253. He indicated that we could do a site/bird unit price. He estimated that Grand <br />Pre' would run $500 and Nadeau Park would run $400. He is also willing to check other <br />sites at the same time and do any necessary round up with fees based on the number of <br />geese captured. <br />It is my recommendation that we do site - specific round -up based on the amounts <br />indicated above with the Grand Pre' site subject to their agreement to reimburse us for <br />the costs incurred this year as well as those incurred in previous years. I am still waiting <br />word from St. Jude and Grand Pre' as to their need for participation in the goose round <br />up. Furthermore, if any geese are discovered on East Savage Lake, one pair will be <br />banded and left to remain on the lake per our previous discussions. <br />cc: Bonnie Chester <br />Elvie Day <br />Page 16 <br />
