Mr. Baird has <br />complained to the Mayor and City Engineer regarding truck traffic on CSAH 8 aka Egg Lake Road. His <br />concern is that there have been vibrations caused by heavy truck traffic, which may have caused <br />structural damage on his property. City staff reacted quickly when informed of the issue by Mayor <br />Miron, and immediately dispatched Washington County sheriff deputies to not only complete a truck <br />traffic reading, but also to do a speed study, and also to speak with Mr. Baird. Since this issue deals with <br />a county road, City staff informed County Engineer Don Theisen, who will be responding by letter to <br />Mr. Baird. At this point, the City has done its job in responding quickly to the concerns of Mr. Baird <br />and to report this issue to the WCSO and engineering department. <br />Miron made motion, Petryk seconded, directing staff to send a letter to Mr. Baird stating that the City <br />concurs with statements made by Washington County Engineer Don Theisen regarding Mr. Baird's <br />concerns. <br />All aye.
