PUBLIC WORKS * The Public Works staff will finish cleaning up storm damage, and chip all the brush on Wednesday the 1st. The City of Circle Pines is lending us their chipper. Mounds View's chipper would not handle this amount of brush, and the diameter of many of the limbs. * A technician from SEH will be out on Wednesday to inspect the underdrain structure in the filter vessel at treatment plant #3. There are a couple of holes in it where sand is escaping. We don't know exactly what caused this at this time. * Advertisement for the new skidloader was placed last week, with a bid opening scheduled for September 2, 1994 at 10:30. This is the annual replacement of this unit made available through New Holland / Ford. * Curb and gutter was laid on Pleasantview Drive last week. Staff met with Ramsey County engineers, and local residents to discuss some of the necessary slope adjustments. Most of the residents were understanding and cooperative. The base course of asphalt is scheduled to be laid on Thursday (weather permitting), then the landscaping will commence, followed by the wearing course sometime in the first part of September. The Contractor is doing a great job on this project. * Staff is working on a joint bid with the City of Maplewood for a new backhoe. This purchase is contingent upon the approval of the 1995 budget. It is hoped that by purchasing with another city, we may both get a better deal.
