October 27, 1975
Mr. Bill Wilson of Johnson - Wilson Builders was present in the audience
and presented plans for the Mounds View Mobile Home Park emergency exit.
Engineer Bearden reviewed the plans which included a driveway and a 16 foot
gate across the driveway to be kept locked and used only in emergency
situations. The driveway is to be located on Raymond Avenue between
Bronson and Belle Lane.
Mayor Johnson asked Engineer Bearden if he was satisfied with the plans
as presented.
Engineer Bearden said the only thing to be added is top soil on the sides
of the driveway.
MSP (Johnson- Hodges) to accept the plans and specifications for Improvement
Project 1975 -7 for the addition of an emergency exit at Mounds View Mobile
Home Park. The plans and specificationspresented should also incorporate
construction of a locked gate to correspond with existing fences in the area
and the side slopes are to be covered with black dirt and sodded. The
gate is to be maintained free of snow and ice during periods of inclement
weather. The fill material is to be compacted to 95% standard density. The
keys, which lock the gate, shall be kept by the fire, police and civil defense
departments. 5 Ayes
Mr. Wilson wanted to know who will be responsible for the city side of the
gate as far as snow removal. He said when the plows go through, if the
gate is not cleared, the snow banks may become hardened and very difficult
to remove.
Councilman Shelquist said in some suburbs, the plows have wings that drop
into driveways to clear the snow. He has seen Ramsey County plows with
these wings and suggests it may be feasible to have them wing out the
snow by the emergency drive and gate.
Mayor Johnson told Mr. Wilson he would need a permit, license and perfor-
mance bond in an amount sufficient to complete the Project on file at the
city office before he could begin work.
