(4-1.- 1-1THIS- IS <br /> • • • • <br /> FOR THE WEEK OF JULY 8 - JULY 12, 1996 <br /> ADMINISTRATION <br /> • I've always liked working for cities because of the variety of experiences one gets. <br /> Things came to a head, so to speak, with the golf course sprinkling system this week. <br /> While I'm sure this is covered elsewhere This is It, it turns out that a programming error <br /> had much to do with the less than adequate performance of the Bridges sprinklers. <br /> Despite that, a new pump was placed in the system with a new warranty (one year), and <br /> all appears to be working well. John and Mary spent the day at the site with reps from <br /> Watertronics and our architects among others, and apparently some spent time there well <br /> into the night. Reports to me are that the system is working very well now. We are <br /> discussing training some of our own people on the system for future occasions. <br /> • In other golf course related news, we are again having some problems with errant golf <br /> balls. Apparently someone was barely missed on the trucking property last week. This <br /> has prompted further communication with Lind Trucking and we intend to approach them <br /> with options to cut down the potential for damage or injury. This will likely consist of <br /> added fencing or reconfiguring the No. 2 tee box. Also just to note, a car window was hit <br /> while driving on 118. <br /> • Cathy and I met with Nick Temali and Jan Witthuhn to review the community ed needs <br /> and the plans for the Bel Rae. As the Council may recall we had at one point discussed <br /> having a joint meeting between the boards, but after our discussion we felt it may be <br /> simpler to focus on the Bel Rae portion of the building designated for community ed use. <br /> Staff can simply present that to the School Board on behalf of the Council (after our <br /> August work session) and not try to schedule a formal and noticed Council meeting. This <br /> may also avoid confusing Bel Rae issues with other City-School district issues that would <br /> be better addressed at a more regular joint meeting and work into our timeframe for <br /> community presentation better as well. <br />
