Mounds View City Council January 28, 2002 <br />Regular Meeting Page 16 <br />• Mayor Sonterre pointed out there was not a pedestrian crossing marking where the new curb cut <br />is. He also suggested adding a painted pavement rise, or speed bump, just prior to the stop sign <br />at the pathway crossing to prevent vehicles from rolling through the crossing. <br />Mr. Gannon indicated the crosswalk would be marked and indicated he would pursue the option <br />of the speed bump with the school district. <br />Council Member Stigney asked if the Public Works Director's comments had been incorporated <br />into the plans. <br />Mr. Lee indicated his comments were minor and should be able to be included. <br />Council Member Marty expressed concern for the reduction in parking and asked if the east <br />parking lot is marked for parking. <br />Ms. Howard indicated the east parking lot is utilized. <br />Council Member Marty asked if it would be possible to expand to make up for the loss of <br />parking. <br />Mr. Gannon indicated that the portable classroom on the south end will be removed and may <br />• make room for additional parking. <br />Mayor Sonterre indicated the site would not allow for expansion of the parking lot. He then <br />commented that a commitment from the school to utilize the east parking lot would help a lot. <br />Council Member Marty indicated the City was dealing with Pinewood Elementary on some mold <br />issues because of problems with the roof. He then asked how many additions had been made to <br />the roof at Edgewood Middle School. <br />Mr. Gannon indicated the school was built in 1957 and the pool addition added in 1966. He then <br />indicated the school district has ongoing issues with reproofing and repairs and the <br />superintendent of buildings and grounds has pointed out delicate areas of the roof and those areas <br />fall into areas where it is likely that correction and addition work will be done. <br />Council Member Marty indicated he would like to be as proactive as possible to make sure that <br />they stay ahead of the game instead of getting into a mold issue at Edgewood. He then asked if <br />an air quality report had been done. <br />Mr. Gannon explained that the school would be receiving a new HVAC system and noted that <br />was one of the main items on the referendum. <br />• Council Member Marty asked if the duct work was lined or galvanized. <br />
