Mounds View City Council August 28, 2000 <br />Regular Meeting Page 8 <br />Mr. Fasell reviewed that residents were told the proposal would be discussed at the meeting that <br />started at 7:00 p.m. However, upon arrival they discovered the meeting actually started at 6:00 <br />p.m. He stated the residents were told at that meeting that this project was just in the planning <br />phases <br />Council Member Quick clarified the meeting being referred to was a Council Work Session and <br />no decision was reached or vote was taken. <br />Mr. Fasell reviewed the activity that has occurred on this project to survey the properties, place <br />survey stakes, and the indication that Rice Creek was conducting survey work so they could draft <br />a proposal. He stated he spoke with a surveyor also commented on the great amount of traffic on <br />Highway 10 which refers to the proposed sound wall project. The surveyor had also indicated he <br />was not aware of any studies made as to the impact of such a pond on the water in that <br />neighborhood or in the neighborhoods following the Rice Creek area. Mr. Fasell restated that <br />neighbors are confused and would like to know when informational meetings will beheld so they <br />can become informed of what is being proposed. <br />Council Member Stigney stated he had suggested residents obtain a copy of the Work Session <br />meeting tape so they can view it and see what occurred. Mr. Fasell suggested that Mr. Sontare <br />approach staff to obtain the meeting tape. Council Member Stigney stated residents can also <br />contact City Staff. <br />Dan and Jean Lamm, 2305 Sherwood Road, approached the Council to offer their comments. <br />Mr. Lamm noted the earlier discussed communication "glitch" between the Charter Commission <br />and Council. He suggested there have been other communication problems with the City in <br />relation to this project, noting they have prepared a chronology of what has occurred and offered <br />to provide copies to the Council and staff. <br />Mr. Lamm stated he found it unacceptable for residents to have to wait two months for a meeting <br />to be scheduled. He noted this issue has been discussed by the staff and the Council for a period <br />of time. <br />Ms. Lamm noted information regarding this proposed project that was included in the Mounds <br />View Matters and another publication. <br />Mr. Lamm suggested the Council meet with residents to review the information they have <br />gleamed. He stated he also wants to talk with Mayor Coughlin regarding these issues. <br />Acting Mayor Stigney asked staff to work with Mr. Sontare so information can be presented to <br />residents. <br />Council Member Marty advised that Mayor Coughlin is available at City Hall every Monday. <br />There were no other re uests or comments from the floor. <br />q <br />
