Clerk -Administrator and City Council <br />January 25, 1988 <br />Page 4 <br />in which we paid for a 4 X 4 to plow less than three inches of <br />snow. This piece of equipment is very expensive for the City. <br />Then there have been instances such as January 25 when we had at <br />least 3 to 4 inches of snow over the weekend, plus high winds <br />creating drifted roadways. The County did plow their roads, but <br />not ours. <br />In reviewing all data and foreseeable costs, I woul like to <br />propose that the City of Mounds View assume the duty of snow and <br />ice control on one of the four Ramsey County routes. I have <br />talked to Bob Jones, District Supervisor, as to the details of <br />our decision if approved. The County would provide service to <br />our route in the event of a break down, thereby covering our <br />residents. This program would be used on a trial basis for the <br />remainder of the 1988 season, keeping accurate data in all areas <br />of concern, then reviewing that data before the winter of 1989 to <br />decide whether to continue this practice. <br />I feel very safe in saying that my crew, after proper training, <br />can provide a higher degree of service at a lesser cost to the <br />citizens of Mounds View. <br />FIU/bac <br />E. <br />1-1 <br />
