Update on Lake Air/Bald Eagle Estates Neighborhood Proposed Improvements On October 11, 2010, the Hugo City Council held a neighborhood meeting with residents in the Lake Air Estates/Bald Eagle Estates neighborhood to discuss a potential street and utility improvement project. The project would include roadway reconstruction and could include the installation of City water. At its October 18, 2010 meeting, Council directed staff to mail a questionnaire to the residents within the project area to determine interest regarding the potential road and water improvement project in their neighborhood. City Engineer Jay Kennedy informed Council the City had received approximately 50 of the 60 questionnaires back, and a little over half of the responses were in favor of some type of project, mostly a road project. Jay recommended holding another neighborhood meeting. Acting Mayor Petryk stated she had met with residents from one particular cul-de-sac earlier this evening, and those residents were in the audience. She asked if they had comments. T.J. Ricci, 5027 124th Street Court North, said there was nothing positive about bringing water into the neighborhood, but road improvements would be ok. Bob Hanson, 4920 126th Street, said he has lived in his home for over 20 years, and the City has neglected to maintain the road. He requested to see a breakdown on the project cost to see what the City would be paying for the project.
