Hunt would like the speed down from 55 to 40 mph on Inwood Avenue, <br />going downhill through the residential, past the cross streets. Capt. Johnson <br />will provide the Deputies a printout of accidents for Inwood Avenue and <br />Hudson Blvd and CSAH13. <br />5. NEW BUSINESS <br />A. Temporary Lowering of Water Levels within the Lower St.Croix <br />Watershed District. <br />The amount of water in the snowpack throughout the District is <br />approximately 4.5 inches which presents a threatening flood condition <br />should a severe snowmelt event occur. If the lakes are not lowered, flood <br />elevations could exceed the projected 100-year flood levels. The Lower <br />St. Croix Valley Watershed District (formerly the Valley Branch Watershed <br />District) Board of Managers will implement the previously approved <br />implementation schedule. Notifications were made through the Pioneer <br />Press, Minneapolis Star Tribune, Oakdale -Lake Elmo Review as well as to <br />3M, Cities of Pine Springs, Mahtomedi and West Lakeland Township. Thin <br />ice signs will be placed at their respective water bodies. <br />6. CONSENT AGENDA <br />A.
