<br />City Councill\finutes <br />,~pril 9, 2007 <br /> <br />Page 2 <br /> <br />The Council concurred that they don't need to see a list of code enforcement issues before <br />the process to remedy them is started but they would like to be made aware of them <br />periodically after enforcement has begun. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Councilmember Motin questioned the status of the sign ordinance as it relates to putting <br />decals on signs. <br /> <br />Ms. Johnson stated she would check on this with the Community Development <br />Department. <br /> <br />Mayor Klinzing stated that during the budget process she would like the city to consider <br />privatizing more services if it makes economical sense as she has heard many conunents <br />from constiruents. <br /> <br />Ms. Johnson stated the city does consider private services on many things such as <br />snowplowing, janitorial services, etc as part of the annual budget process. She referenced the <br />recent decision on the prosecuting attorney as one of the recent issues reviewed. She stated <br />staff will bring this to the public's and Council's attention more during the budgeting <br />process. <br /> <br />5.2. <br /> <br />Transportation Update <br /> <br />lMr. Maurer provided a PowerPoint presentation of current transportation projects. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />A. 193,d Avenue <br /> <br />The Council concurred with the proposed diagram for the Burandt Curve and with the street <br />section design with a median. He stated the new street section would have a ten foot <br />bituminous path on the south side and a six foot concrete path on the north side. <br /> <br />Mr. Maurer noted that the proposed sidewalk on the south side of existing 193,d Avenue <br />may need to have retaining walls due to the topography. He stated sidewalks will need to be <br />decided upon at a later date. <br /> <br />B. Deerfield 3'" Addition Sidewalk <br /> <br />Mr. Maurer presented some results of a survey sent to residents that are part of this <br />pavement management project. <br /> <br />Councilmember Motin questioned why a survey was sent out. <br /> <br />Ms. Johnson stated there were many comments from the affected property owners after the <br />initial meetings on this project. She stated some owners didn't want to speak in front of their <br />neighbors and some indicated they didn't understand the petition they had signed. <br /> <br />Mayor Klinzing noted that some owners signed the petition believing the cost of the <br />assessment would be reduced if sidewalks were removed from the project. <br /> <br />e <br />
