Public Works Activity Update Dan Olinger updated the Council on what its general work plan is for this summer, such as, making sure they can access the main gate valves of the water system, locate curb stops, check fire hydrants, minor patching of streets, updating some of the 201 systems, and erecting new park equipment. They need to establish policy and procedure for cleaning out culverts, sediment out of ponds which will require renting a piece of equipment and get this cost into the budget. Olinger requested a workshop be scheduled between the Council and Public Works to discuss drafting a procedure and discuss the impact of snowplowing involved for the new housing developments on an already overworked staff The Administrator will set up a date for a workshop. B. Signs on Upper 33 s Street Administrator Kueffner reported that Councilor Dunn is satisfied with the placement of signs, but there still is a problem with cars parking too close to the hydrant and the Deputies have been alerted. The Administrator will remind Lake Elmo Inn there is no parking by the fire hydrant and no parking where the "No Parking Signs" are erected. C. Alarm on Water Tower Dan Olinger reported the City chose not to install an alarm system on the "Old Village" water tower. Instead some kind of an alarm was installed in a near -by resident's home. Olinger feels now for the health, safety, and welfare of the community, the City should revisit the issue and consider installation of an alarm that would alert the City of any problems that may occur. Tom Prew found a $4,000 installation figure with a phone charge. The Council asked the staff to look at what is going to work the best, check into options and give the City a cost D. New doors for Maintenance Building One of the doors broke and fell on Jim McNamara's car and damaged the car. Dan Olinger explained the doors have been planned to be replaced for quite a while, but was put on hold until it was decided if the building was going to be remodeled for the Fire Department and a final decision was made regarding a new facility. Dan received a quote from Crawford Door Sales of the Twin Cities for 5 steel doors at a cost of $12,478.00. M/S/P DeLapp/Hum — to accept the recommendation from staff and purchase the 5 steel doors per quote at a cost of $12,478.00 from Crawford Door Sales of the Twin Cities and authorize the cost of $75 to put a window in the door with the total cost split between Public Works, Fire Dept. and Building Dept.
