It is the opinion of the Camp 1 REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING �2 FEBRUARY 11 , 1992 3 PAGE 7 4 5 6 Committee the sidewalk would not be ecologically 7 beneficial to the wildlife located at the Lake and 8 would be disruptive to the natural setting of the 9 Lake.

Anthony City 33 Council still has time to deny authorization for 34, installation of the sidewalk but cautioned it would 35 be wise to wait on this matter until the road- 36 placement is decided.

Drinkina Water 31 32 The City Manager advised that there has been a 33 problem noticed with the City' s drinking water. 34 There have been black flecks in the water and staff 35 has determined these flecks are particles of 36 manganese. He stated that manganese is not harmful 37 to humans nor to animals . 38 39 The City Manager explained that because there is 40 less water usage in the winter, particles of 41 manganese tends to solidify and come through the 42 water pipes . The water is run through three wells 43 which have iron and manganese removal but with less 44 water being run the manganese becomes apparent in 45 the tap water . Presently, the water is being pumped 46 from Well #5 , on the north side of Silver Lake, 47 which is higher in. manganese. 48 49 The City could correct the problem by flushing the 50 hydrants but this is not possible in cold weather 51 as the flushed water would freeze on the streets 52 and be a hazard. The City Manager suggested 3 changing the air stove in the Filtration Plant may 4 be helpful to solve some of the problem. 1 REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING • 2 FEBRUARY 11 , 1992 3 PAGE 10 4 5 6 Also, changing to another well rather than Well #5 7 may offer some solution. 8 9 In response to calls from residents , staff has been 10 advising them to run their water for a short period 11 of time and this has cleared the water. 12 13 7 .

He referred to some of the non- 33 priority items which have been completed.- 34 35 9. Relocation of Pollina Place for Precinct 3 36 37 In a memo from the City Clerk; it was noted that it 38 is being recommended that Hennepin County Precinct 39 3 be 'dissolved and that registered voters in the 40 precinct be added'-`to Hennepin County Precinct 2 . 41 42 The City Manager advised it has been difficult to 43 obtain election judges for this location. 44 Registered voters do not need to be formally 45 notified that the polling place is being relocated. 46 The new location will be in the gymnasium at the 47 Community Center. It is allowed by State Statute to 48 have two polling places for different precincts in 49 the same facility. 50 51 This action must be taken via a formal resolution. 52 The City Manager will prepare a resolution for the 53 next Council Meeting. 54 1 REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING • 2 FEBRUARY 11 , 1992 3 PAGE 11 4 5 6 C.

He noted 16 that the personnel for the cable commission is totally 17 reorganized and that a new Executive Secretary was hired. 18 19 All cities who participate in this cable commission have 20 undertaken public access programming from the cable 21 company. In the near future, members of the cable 22 commission will be meeting with all school principals in 23 their respective school districts to view the studio 24 located at Irondale High School and to explore some of 25 the possibilities for cable programming. 26 27 Zawi s.l ak noted that some of the camera capabilities which 0-8 could have been employed by cities would have been 9 surveillance cameras in the liquor establishments and 30 viewing of wells . Previously, this function was available 31 without cost , but now there is a charge. He noted that 32 much, of the local control of cable was taken away by 33 federal legislation. He feels this control will be 34 returned to municipalities by some legislation currently 35 being considered in Washington, D.C. 36 37 Presently, there is thirty-seven percent penetration of 38 cable subscribers in St . Anthony which is up from thirty- 39 one percent . 40 41 Zawislak encouraged the Council to consider local access 42 programming.

" 45 46 With 1 ,342 residents who subscribe to cable in St . 47 Anthony, Zawislak felt there would be very good response 48 to local access programming and many requests for 49 information.

Anthony. He felt there were 18 many resident who would be interested in serving on this 19 type of committee and who had expertise in the field of 20 cable television. He also felt some of the suggestions of 21 this committee, although progressive, may cost . 22 23 Mayor Ranallo stated that his position is no funds will 24 be spent on cable while the State and the cities are in 25 a financial dilemma . He recalled that in survey responses 26 only one percent of the subscribers of cable television 27 said they would be interested in viewing Council �8 Meetings . 29 30 The City Manager stated that to improve the Council 31 Chambers for live cablecasts would require better 32 lighting and cameras . These would cost between $5,000 and 33 $8 , 000 but would be a one time cost . Volunteer assistance 34 would be sought for operating the cameras and for 35 videotaping other community activities . 36 37 The Mayor again stated his position regarding 38 expenditures for cable matters when the City is 39 experiencing budget problems . 40 41 . The City Manager felt a' taping of the Goal Setting 42 Session information could be utilized in an experimental 43 manner.
