The Moto -4 has proven to be a <br />valuable tool for residential patrols during the summer months. <br />Business and commercial premises surveys have sparked interest and <br />participation within out business community. Officers are trained <br />to recommend security improvements in areas of vulnerability. <br />In 1985, the Lino Lakes Police Task Force recommended that due to <br />the large area of the City, there should be two officers per shift <br />on patrol. Based on this recommendation, an additional police offi- <br />cer will be hired. Other recommendations by the Task Force were <br />also implemented in 1985. The Civil Defence program is also a very <br />valuable arm of the Police Department. They will continue to train and <br />remain ready when needed. <br />PUBLIC WORKS <br />1985 was a very active year for the City's Public Works Department. <br />City crews sealcoated eight lane miles of city streets within budget, <br />and completed their 1985 bituminous overlay program of six lane miles <br />$25,000 under budget. <br />Not only does our Public Works Department concentrate on keeping our <br />roads in top condition, but there are many day to day special projects <br />that arise. This year was no exception. <br />One special project this year was the Arbor day tree sale. Over 300 <br />trees were sold at one dollar a piece to area residents. Varieties <br />such as Black Hills spruce, white pine and maple were available. We <br />intend to continue this program again in 1986. <br />1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />
