Mounds View City Council August 28, 2000 <br />Regular Meeting Page 8 <br /> <br />Mr. Kosel 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. Kosel restated that <br />neighbors are confused and would like to know when informational meetings will be held so they <br />can become informed of what is being proposed. <br /> <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. Kosel suggested that Mr. Sonterre <br />approach staff to obtain the meeting tape. Council Member Stigney stated residents can also <br />contact City Staff. <br /> <br />Dan and Jean Lamb, 2305 Sherwood Road, approached the Council to offer their comments. Mr. <br />Lamb noted the earlier discussed communication “glitch” between the Charter Commission and <br />Council. He suggested there have been other communication problems with the City in relation <br />to this project, noting they have prepared a chronology of what has occurred and offered to <br />provide copies to the Council and staff. <br /> <br />Mr. Lamb 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 /> <br />Ms. Lamb noted information regarding this proposed project that was included in the Mounds <br />View Matters and another publication. <br /> <br />Mr. Lamb 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 /> <br />Acting Mayor Stigney asked staff to work with Mr. Sonterre so information can be presented to <br />residents. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty advised that Mayor Coughlin is available at City Hall every Monday. <br /> <br />There were no other requests or comments from the floor. <br /> <br />10.
