Mounds View City Council March 11, 2002 Regular Meeting Page 11 Council Member Marty indicated that public works had 2002 golf course prep work in the report and asked whether the golf course would be under public works or if this was an interim measure. City Administrator Miller indicated that public works is handling the matter as an interim measure until a manager is hired. Council Member Marty noted the exam to obtain pesticide applicators license is scheduled for April 8, 2002. He then commented he thought one of the golf course manager requirements was the ability to administer pesticides, making the purchase of the study manuals and testing not necessary. City Administrator Miller indicated that pesticide management was one of the qualifications. Council Member Quick indicated there were other spots in the City where pesticide application is required besides the golf course. Council Member Marty suggested that the boy scouts working on the Hillview warming house landscaping contact the City Forester for approval of the types of materials to be used. Public Works Director Lee indicated he intended to oversee the boy scouts to make sure that the right selections are made. Council Member Marty commented the feasibility study for cameras suggested it is not a possibility and questioned why not. Council Member Marty indicated he approved of establishing a pool of consultants rather than using just one. Council Member Marty said he feels the survey is a good idea. Mayor Sonterre indicated Council had given permission for the survey but did not identify a funding source. Council Member Marty commented that Mr. Lee’s report had said that filing is a trivial matter and said he does not think it is trivial at all. Council Member Marty indicated he liked the idea of special recognition of employees who go above and beyond. Council Member Marty asked what types of leaks are being referenced in the leak survey.
