Housing and Redevelopment Authority Meeting Minutes <br />November 23, 2021 <br />Page 2 <br />1 through code enforcement or simply stepping in and performing the maintenance to address <br />2 resident concerns. Staff feels it would be more efficient for all parties if the maintenance <br />3 activities were integrated into the overall City parks maintenance activities. <br />4 <br />5 The City's legal counsel has been an active participant in these discussions, and the <br />6 recommended avenue for this is for the property owners to grant an easement to the City for the <br />7 purposes of performing those routine maintenance activities. The property owners would retain <br />8 ownership of the Salo Park area, as well as the responsibility for maintenance of the storm water <br />9 ponds, while granting a perpetual easement to the City for maintenance activities. <br />10 <br />11 A summary of the responsibilities for each party are: <br />12 City of St. Anthony Responsibilities <br />13 • Landscaping maintenance <br />14 • Irrigation repairs <br />15 • Lighting repairs <br />16 • Trash collection <br />17 • Concrete Replacement <br />18 <br />19 Property Owners Responsibilities <br />20 • Storm water ponds water quality <br />21 • Storm water ponds dredging <br />22 • Alum water management system <br />23 • Drainage facilities entering and exiting the ponds <br />24 • Interconnection of the ponds under 39a' Ave NE <br />25 <br />26 Staff recommends HRA approval for entering into the Maintenance Agreement.
