He questioned how the Council would like <br /> to proceed, noting a budget amendment could be approved if agreed to by the Council. <br /> Council Member Hull wished to continue with the fall cleanup, limit the number of free items in <br /> the future, and consider a budget amendment to be approved at a future date as needed. <br /> Council Member Gunn and Council Member Stigney agreed. <br /> City Administrator Ericson noted several properties within the Area D Street and Utility <br /> Improvement Project had setback issues with their driveways. The driveways in question have <br /> been reviewed by the planning department and seven properties were of concern. He asked how <br /> the Council would like to proceed and if the aprons should be replaced in compliance with City <br /> Code. <br /> Mayor Flaherty stated a very small number of properties were affected. However, any <br /> encroachment on a neighboring property should be addressed. He felt that non-compliant issues <br /> should be addressed in the future if the driveway were to be redone to become compliant with <br /> current City setbacks. The Council agreed. <br /> City Administrator Ericson reviewed the proposed discussion items for the July 5th work session <br /> meeting. The Council then discussed additional funding available for Music in the Park or the <br /> • Festival in the Park. <br /> Council Member Gunn suggested $2,000 be allotted to the Festival and $1,673 to Music in the <br /> Park. <br /> Council Member Stigney requested all the funds go to the Festival. <br /> Council Member Hull and Mayor Flaherty agreed. <br /> Council Member Gunn stated Sergeant Wolf with the Mounds View Police Department was <br /> requesting better signage for house numbers on homes set back farther from the street. She <br /> requested this be further discussed at a future work session meeting.
