<br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Council Minutes <br />March 27, 1984 <br /> <br />Esget again expressed concern of speed problem <br />(mail boxes are constantly knocked down, lost a <br />telephone pole) coming down hill, around curve <br />and no stop sign. <br /> <br />Benke stated that he had not been made aware of <br />the problem on that particular street, and that <br />the Council is sympathtic to the problem. He <br />asked the residents who they have talked to with <br />regard to this problem. <br /> <br />Chief Holmes had been continually called; Friday <br />and Saturday night is especially bad and no pOlice <br />are around. <br /> <br />Benke stated that we do have a new chief and <br />suggested the residents contact him. <br /> <br />Muta Paulson, 1192 Pike Lake Drive, asked if the <br />bituminous would be thick like on the highways. <br />Proper indicated the layer would vary in thickness <br />from 1~1_4." She indicated that the tar and rock <br />which had been used previously, was not adequate. <br /> <br />Mayor Harcus entered into the minutes a letter he <br />received from Arlyn D. Gunderman, 1203 Highview <br />Drive, supporting the improvements. <br /> <br />As there were no further comments, a motion was <br />made by Harcus and seconded by Janecek to close <br />the public hearing. <br /> <br />5 Ayes - 0 Nayes, Motion Carried <br /> <br />Motion by Schmidt, seconded by Janecek, to adopt a <br />resolution ORDERING THE IMPROVEMENT, AUTHORIZING THE <br />PREPARATION OF SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE REHABILITATION <br />OF STREETS IN THE PIKE LAKE AREA, PROJECT 84-1. <br /> <br />Schmidt corrmented that he was glad Councilmen Benke <br />and Blomquist had arrived, and expressed his sensi- <br />tivity to the citizens' concern about traffic but <br />suggested that pot holes were not an appropriate <br />traffic control/speed control measure. Based on <br />engineering judgment and listening to the citizens' <br />concerns, the Council would make a decision. <br /> <br />Benke asked the audience, putting aside the speed- <br />ing and traffic, if they would agree to the project. <br />The consensus was, Yes. <br /> <br />Benke then asked the audience if they would like to <br />have the Special Assessment this year or next year. <br />The consensus was to have it this year to save one <br />year of interest. <br /> <br />Page Five <br /> <br />. ~ <br />
