(Motion passed 5-0). <br />6. CONSENT AGENDA: <br />7. MAINTENANCE/PARKS/FIREBUILDING: <br />A. Update on Maintenance Dept. Activities: Dan Olinger <br />Maintenance Supervisor Dan Olinger reported that residents are plowing <br />snow back onto streets, leave large windrows that would damage the plows, <br />do not clean up around mailboxes and place recycling bins in the way of the <br />plow. In a Newsletter article residents will be reminded of these problems. <br />B.Eliminating the Uniform Name and Numbering System for City Streets <br />Fire Chief Greg Malmquist indicated the uniform name and numbering <br />system saves his department time when it comes to answering a fire call. <br />Without the system, the first thing he would have to do is pull out a map <br />book to find the street. Commander Don McGlothlin, Washington County <br />Sheriffs Dept., and Jon Mueller, Lakeview Ambulance, said a lack of <br />uniformity would cut down on their response times as well, and time is <br />something they cannot waste in emergency situations. The current system is <br />constant and contiguous with all the areas they serve, it allows us to get <br />somewhere fast. If we have to go back and look at maps, it will reduce our <br />time responding. <br />The Council explained that the system worked well for streets that somewhat <br />pattern a grid formation, but most developments in the City are clustered and <br />have winding roads. Some of the street names like Jasmine Ave, Jasmine <br />Ave. Place are more confusing than each street having a unique name. <br />Woodbury and Cottage Grove do not use the uniform system. <br />LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JANUARY 16, 2001 5 <br />
