176 <br />CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION <br />CITY OF LINO LAKES <br />COUNCIL MINUTES <br />MAY 19, 1993 <br />City Engineer, Darrell Schneider; Police Administrative Officer, <br />Bruce Keller; Parks Director, Marty Asieson; Public Works <br />Director, Don Volk; City Administrator, Randy Schumacher and <br />Clerk- Treasurer Marilyn Anderson were also present. <br />Police Department Speed Monitor Proposal <br />Officer Keller presented a copy of a Speed Monitor proposal to <br />the City Council. Officer Keller explained that he and Council <br />Member Neal have been working on a program to specifically deal <br />with traffic problems and weight enforcement. The purpose of the <br />program is to actively enforce traffic related laws for the <br />safety of the community and those who travel through it. The <br />program will also generate revenue for the City and reduce crime. <br />Another purpose of the program is to ensure that all relevant <br />road weight restrictions are complied with on a seasonal basis, <br />preserving City owned and maintained streets. <br />Officer Keller outlined how the program would be staffed and what <br />capital purchases would be required to get the program <br />operational. He requested authorization to begin the program on <br />a temporary basis for a three (3) month trial. During the trial <br />period current fulitime and parttime staff would be used to staff <br />the program and a current unmarked squad car would be utilized. <br />There would be no need to purchase any equipment other than the <br />video camera and there would be no need to hire additional staff. <br />Council Member Neal felt that now is the time of year to start <br />this program because of the increase traffic. Council Member <br />Bergeson wondered if using the following three (3) months would <br />give false results. <br />PAGE 1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />
