Hanson <br />www.ci.little-canada.mn.us <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor Blesener & Members of City Council <br />FROM: Joel Hanson, City Administrator <br />Bill Dircks, Public Works Superintendent <br />Jim Morelan, Parks & Recreation Director <br />DATE: October 19, 2012 <br />RE: Rondeau Park Follow -Up <br />After our neighborhood meeting with the Rondeau Park area, staff has been addressing <br />the issues raised that evening. Here is where things currently stand: <br />Malfunctioning Street Light — Corner of Jackson & Bryan — right after the <br />neighborhood meeting, staff turned in a repair request to Xcel for that light. We have <br />also been told that Jim Boss made repairs to the light. We have not verified that the light <br />is working, but based on past experience, this issue should be resolved. (As an aside, we <br />will put an article in the next newsletter about street light repairs so people either contact <br />Xcel or let us know about outages so we can get them repaired promptly.) <br />Undergrowth Removal by Ponds on East Side of Park — Staff has reviewed this and <br />we will be removing the brush this winter. The Parks & Recreation Department will be <br />conferring with Deputy Eastham to make sure our plan accomplishes the objectives he <br />outlined at the neighborhood meeting. We will also be sending out some information to <br />the Park View Court residents to make sure our plans are not inconsistent with screening <br />concerns of these properties. <br />Additional Street Lights in this Area - Staff looked at the entire Jackson, Bryan, <br />Labore, and Maple neighborhood to see if the street lighting in the area was consistent <br />with the City's policy. There is significant lighting along Jackson Street all the way to <br />Maple Lane. Labore Avenue had a light installed at the end of the street in 2008 to bring <br />it up to par with the policy. Maple Lane has decorative light posts and lights along the <br />entire street that were put in when the street was developed. Bryan Avenue is the only <br />1 <br />
