Public Hearing, Consideration of Resolution 7243 Ordering the 2009-2010 <br />Street and Utility Improvement Project, and Authorizing the Preparation of <br />Plans and Specifications. <br />Mayor Marty opened the public hearing at 7:32 p.m. <br />Public Works Director Lee provided an overview of the 2009 - 2010 Street and Utility <br />Improvement Project. The only difference from the 2007 - 2008 Street Improvement Project is <br />the addition of Red Oak Drive from Sherwood Road to the North was added. This project would <br />be a complete street upgrade with utility repairs but not totally replaced. Water infiltration and <br />quality items will also be included. <br />Public Works Director Lee reviewed the funding for the project and the tentative schedule. <br />There will be a neighborhood pre-construction meeting prior to beginning construction. <br />Tom Winiecki of 2700 Sherwood Road asked who ordered the intersection of Fairchild and <br />Hillview closed because he uses it every day. Public Works Director Lee indicated that the <br />Committee and Council would be discussing this and a decision still needs to be made. <br />Director Lee indicated that from a pedestrian safety standpoint it was recommended that the <br />intersection of Fairchild and Hillview be closed and Ramsey County is in favor of closing the <br />• intersection because it is uncontrolled. <br />Hearing no further public comment, Mayor Marty closed the public hearing at 7:41 p.m. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Flaherty/Marty. To Waive the Reading and Approve Resolution 7243 <br />Ordering the 2009 - 2010 Street and Utility Improvement Project, and Authorize the Preparation <br />of Plans and Specifications. <br />Ayes - 5 Nays - 0 Motion carried. <br />B. Resolution 7247 Authorizing the Purchase of aNon-Linear Editing System <br />for the Cable Room. <br />Vanessa VanAlstine addressed Council and explained that the LCD computer monitor was <br />researched and there are not many companies manufacturing them at this time. She then said that <br />the information is in the report. The Dell and the HP do not have any image controls other than <br />being able to adjust the brightness. The Gateway has extensive controls through an onboard <br />video processor and the Apple monitor has software to control it. The reason that is important is <br />to calibrate the monitor. <br />Vanessa VanAlstine recommended the Apple monitor as it is well recommended in the industry. <br />• <br />
