April 25, 1977 Page 2 Mr. Olson stated that the flea markets were to be held on Sundays this year, rather than Saturdays, as business seemed to be better on Sundays. MSP (Pickar Baumgartner) to issue a permit to the Mounds View Lions Club to run a used car flea market from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Sundays, and that they be permitted to put one large sign up, as they did last year. 5 ayes Adrian Berube, 7923 Greenfield, asked the Council when the water main will be put in at Greenfield Park. When it is windy outside, the sand and dirt from the playground blows against his house and is very corrosive. Admin. Achen stated that the Park was seeded last year. However, it ha; been very windy so possibly part of the seed had been blown off. Mr. Berube stated that in addition to the wind blowing away the grass seed, there were frequently motorcyclists riding across the playground, which was tearing up any grass that had started growing. Mayor Pickar recommended that Mr. Berube call the police next time he saw cyclists on the playground as it was illegal for them to be there. Mr. Berube indicated that he knew who some of the cyclists were but was reluctant to call the police on them. Councilmember Baumgartner stated that without citizens calling and reporting incidents as they were happening and providing names, the police did not have anything to go on. They cannot patrol the area constantly. Admin. Achen stated that there was no money budgeted for additional seeding of the playground since the budget had been prepared last fall. The Parks and Recreation Commission has requested a mid -year budget increase to spend on the parks. Mayor Pickar stated he would have the Park Director report back at the next Council meeting on anything that could be done to help with the problem of the blowing sand and dirt.
