Motion by Councilman Sauer and seconded by Councilman Ranallo to approve the Maintenance Service Agreement between the City of St. Anthony and Ramsey County with suggested changes in wording made by the City Attorney. Motion carried unanimously. The Council felt the cost would be prohibitive for providing security lighting wherever warranted throughout the City and were therefore reluc- tant to accede to the request to install a street light in the alley be- hind the Moore residence at 2612 27th Avenue N.E. Mr. Fornell said the Community Services Officer was trying to organize a crime watch program for that neighborhood which has experienced a number of incidents of vandalism recently. Motion by Councilman Sauer and seconded by Councilman Letourneau to deny the request from Mr. and Mrs . George Moore for a street light in the alley behind their residence and to request the City Manager to suggest to the Moore 's they join with their neighbors to secure from NSP the additional lighting they felt is necessary for the area. Motion carried unanimously. The response from the ballot sent to St. Anthony residents on Highcrest Road was 9 to 1 in favor of a ban of parking on the St. Anthony side of the street when it is rebuilt, Mr. Fornell reported and indicated agreement with the response since this would seem to provide greater safety for the • students of Wilshire Elementary school who use the road to walk to school. Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Sundland and seconded by Councilman Letourneau to submit to Roseville a proposed ban of parking on the St. Anthony side of Highcrest considering -the safety for school children involved, the fact that St. Anthony property owners are being assessed for the costs of re- building that street and the fact there is an apartment building on the Roseville side of the street which creates a disproportionate demand for parking. Motion carried unanimously. Approval of the new report from the Fire Department because it is more in- formative and less costly was indicated by Council members before the February Fire Department report was ordered filed. Motion by Councilman Sauer and seconded by Councilman Sundland to follow the recommendations of the City Manager to purchase an NP-80 Copier for $6 , 000 .00 which will be funded from the Council 's Contingency, Liquor and Water Funds. Before voting on the motion, the maker and seconder of the motion agreed with Councilman Ranallo 's suggestion that the machine should be funded in- stead from the Capital Improvements Account since it is a capital expendi- ture and amended their motion to reflect that change. The amended motion carried unanimously. (2)
