Mounds View City Council October 14, 2025 <br />Regular Meeting Page 2 <br /> <br />None. <br /> <br />7. PUBLIC COMMENT <br /> <br />Mayor Lindstrom encouraged the public to speak with kindness and respect when addressing the <br />City Council during Public Comment. <br /> <br />Vince Meyer, 8380 Spring Lake Road, reported the forms for the wings on his driveway have been <br />installed incorrectly. He noted he called the City Administrator but learned he was out of the <br />country. He indicated he then tried to call public works to inform them of the situation and he <br />received no response. He stated he contacted the contractor directly to let him know the forms <br />were installed incorrectly and the mistake was fixed the next day. <br /> <br />Tony Preciado, 8217 Long Lake Road, asked how many miles and hours were on the pump truck. <br /> <br />Mayor Lindstrom reported the pump truck was over 14 or 15 years old. <br /> <br />Mr. Preciado expressed concern with the fact the Council was approving purchases without any <br />knowledge. He indicated the City would be spending $700,000 on a pump truck. He was of the <br />opinion this purchase was unwise. <br /> <br />Mayor Lindstrom stated the pump truck had reached the end of its useful life and needed <br />replacement. He explained this truck replacement has been pushed back two years and was now <br />being put forward for purchase. <br /> <br />Council Member Clark reported this truck was on the City’s replacement schedule and the Council <br />setting aside funding for this purchase. <br /> <br />Mr. Preciado shared a picture of the odometer on his truck noting he has gotten 515,438 miles. He <br />was of the opinion the City could get more miles and years out of its vehicle purchases through <br />proper maintenance. <br /> <br />Luke Edmond, 8407 Spring Lake Road, explained the wings on his driveway were not poured <br />correctly and were crooked. He stated this was a liability for his property and he would like the <br />situation to be addressed by the City. <br /> <br />Mayor Lindstrom stated staff would follow up with Mr. Edmond. <br /> <br />8.
