PUBLIC WORKS <br /> * The Public Works staff will finish cleaning up storm damage, and chip all the <br /> brush on Wednesday the 1st. The City of Circle Pines is lending us their <br /> chipper. Mounds View's chipper would not handle this amount of brush, and <br /> the diameter of many of the limbs. <br /> * A technician from SEH will be out on Wednesday to inspect the underdrain <br /> structure in the filter vessel at treatment plant #3. There are a couple of holes in <br /> it where sand is escaping. We don't know exactly what caused this at this time. <br /> * Advertisement for the new skidloader was placed last week, with a bid opening <br /> scheduled for September 2, 1994 at 10:30. This is the annual replacement of <br /> this unit made available through New Holland / Ford. <br /> * Curb and gutter was laid on Pleasantview Drive last week. Staff met with <br /> Ramsey County engineers, and local residents to discuss some of the necessary <br /> slope adjustments. Most of the residents were understanding and cooperative. <br /> The base course of asphalt is scheduled to be laid on Thursday (weather <br /> permitting), then the landscaping will commence, followed by the wearing <br /> course sometime in the first part of September. The Contractor is doing a great <br /> job on this project. <br /> * Staff is working on a joint bid with the City of Maplewood for a new backhoe. <br /> This purchase is contingent upon the approval of the 1995 budget. It is hoped <br /> that by purchasing with another city, we may both get a better deal. <br /> * Curb and gutter should be poured for the police parking lot yet this week, if the <br /> weather cooperates. As soon as this occurs, staff will proceed with the grading <br /> of the ballfield and surrounding landscape. <br /> * I'll be on vacation the week of September 5th and returning on the 12th. I will <br /> be at home most of the time, or on the golf course, hopefully, if you need me. <br /> Mike <br />
