Each member introduced himself and welcomed Mr . Crampton . OPEN MIKE Mr. John MacDonald, 6901 LaMotte and a nearby neighbor appeared before the board to respectfully request that the Board offer any assistance they can in seeing that the problem of silt drain- age and damage caused by a ditch on Centerville Road running into Centerville Lake receive some attention . The gentlemen did not intend to place blame on the City for the condition , but have been frustrated in their attempts to convince the DNRor Anoka County Park Department . They felt that if the City made such a request , it may get results . Mr . Volk felt that the St . Paul Water Department may be the proper authority and/or the Anoka County Park Department . Ray Johnson moved to recommend to City Council that a letter be sent to the proper authorities explaining the situation and asking for action to clean up the silt damage and stop the ditch from draining into the lake. Motion seconded by Mr . Scherer . Carried unanimously . PARK BOARD BUDGET Mr. Volk handed out the latest revision of the 1985 budget for the Park Board and explained that it was not final and that it is basically a 'maintenance ' budget . He noted that the budget did include ' disease tree control ' primarily for the control of oak diseases , because of the fact that the elm disease is fairly uncon- trollable. The budget was reviewed and discussed, with Mr . Volk answering several questions . The budget was for information purposes only .
