Explanation/Summary (attach supplement s as necessary.) ' SUMMARY; It is my honor to present to the Mounds View City Council and Mounds View City staff an award that deserves great recognition. Each year the Minnesota Safety Council, in conjunction with the Governor's Office, award those organizations who have shown exemplary efforts and achievements in the area of occupational safety. This Meritorious Achievement Award in Occupational Safety was presented to the City of Mounds View at the Minnesota Safety and Health Conference on May 7, 1993 at the Minneapolis Convention Center. • This award is presented to organizations who have documented accident prevention records for the previous 3 years. During the years 1990-1992, the City of Mounds View has implemented several safety techniques that have prevented and minimized occupational hazards. As a result, the City of Mounds View has had an incident rate of 0, 1.96, and 1.94 accidents per year. By setting and achieving such high accident prevention standards, City employees, residents and the City all benefit greatly. It is recognized that much time and effort are spent in minimizing accidents, and that effort is much appreciated. On behalf of the City, I would like to congratulate all City employees and in particular, the Public Works Maintenance workers; the Park, Recreation and Forestry Maintenance workers and the patrol officers. It is these employees who truly make a difference in this, area. I present this award to the Mounds View City Council on this, the 24th day of May, 1993 . e 4,1' 6AL Tim Cruikshank, Asst. to City Admin.
