• I met with Carl Bennettson of the R.L. Youngdahl Agency to learn the benefits of having the Agency as the City's insurance agent. I saw no compelling reason to change insurance agents. All of the services that the Youngdahl Agency offers are also offered by the Charles Clysdale of the Maguire Agency, our present insurance agent. • Kitty Hickok has been on vacation this week, however, she was in to do payroll and also attended a meeting on the Freenet project. • Finance staff continues to prepare for the annual audit by preparing schedules and gathering information for the auditors. The auditors are expected to be in fieldwork on March 13. Don PUBLIC WORKS • Tim Pittman and Tom Baumgart completed the wiring on the Sergeant's squad this week. More lights were added to this car, which increased the safety factor and brought it up to the level of the other squad cars. * Gary contacted SEH to begin the Pavement Management Program. Weather permitting (a lot of snow or extreme cold), Staff will begin pavement ratings Monday, March 6. • Mike's and Tracy's offices (and the lunchroom) are back to normal! It's amazing what a little paint, carpeting and new furniture can do. Hope you all can stop down and see the "new look". • We are updating the software on our Gopher State One-Call program. Whenever there is any excavating, the contractor must call and notify Gopher State who intern informs the proper utility companies and city(s) where the digging is going to take place. The affected utilities and city(s) then go out (Bill Hanggi is our locator) and locate the underground utilities or water/sewer lines. The cost for this service is .25 cents for each locate notification. Hopefully the updated software will make operations go even more smoother! Mike
