•-�,r '� ITEM 6. 5. <br />ity of� MEMORANDUM <br />lk TO: Mayor & City Council <br />River <br />FROM: Phil Hals, Street /Park Superintendent <br />DATE: November 6, 1995 <br />SUBJECT: Annual Review of Snow and Ice Control <br />Policy <br />As in the past, it is necessary for the City Council to review and adopt the <br />Snow and Ice Control Policy. <br />The basic elements of the policy remain the same as last year with six truck <br />routes, two sidewalk routes and one loader route. <br />The following changes are added to the maps for 1995/96: <br />• A. Joplin Street from County Road 30 to Highway 10 as a priority route. <br />B. Orono Parkway from City Hall to Joplin Street as a priority route. <br />C. Non - motorized pathways (or sidewalks) <br />1. Both sides of Joplin Street from County Road 30 to Highway 10. <br />2. Both sides of Orono Parkway from City Hall to Joplin Street. <br />3. One side of 183rd Avenue from Joplin Street to Sandpiper <br />Estates. <br />4. One side of Commercial Drive west of Joplin Street to end. <br />5. Within Country Crossings Addition. <br />6. Within Heritage Landing Addition. <br />7. Within Meadowvale Heights Addition. <br />8. One side of Dodge Avenue south of 189th Avenue to 600 Dodge <br />Avenue. <br />To improve service without purchasing more equipment, staff would like to <br />contract some of the cul -de -sac plowing. Funds to do this have been <br />identified in the 1996 budget. Contracting the cul -de -sac plowing will allow <br />the city trucks to concentrate on main line plowing. Since a truck can plow <br />two lane miles of street in the time it takes to plow one cul -de -sac, <br />• contracting will speed up our entire snow plowing schedule.
