Deb MacRunnel, 11791 57th street NE, requested that 30 MPH speed limit signs be posted along Barthel Industrial Drive. The Counci I agreed to have speed 1 imi ts signs posted on Barthel Industrial Drive and to install "Slow-Children at Play" signs on 57th street. The Maintenance Department has had 11,891 feet of sewer mains cleaned recently and a report was presented to the Council. The Council reviewed the July Maintenance Work Plan and directed the maintenance department not to proceed with further crack sealing. Crack sealing will be done earlier in March and April of next year. Engineer Thore Meyer presented the Council with a report on areas in the City where street settlements have occurred. The curb has settled by one home on Lannon Avenue and the owner is planning to replace his driveway. Thore recommended that the City negotiate with the contractor who will be replacing the driveway and have him replace the 20'-30' of curb that has settled at the time he does the driveway. Thore suggested the City have an inventory on the streets and establish a five year maintenance plan and budget accordingly. Rick Wacker, Assistant Fire Chief, questioned whether the City could set up a schedule of charges for false alarm calls due to mechanical problems with the fire alarms. Wacker was asked to contact other area fire departments and find out how they deal with repeated false alarms. The attorney will check the statutes that may apply. . . . Thore reviewed the plans and specs for the Westwind Second Addition with the Council. He explained that drainage would use the existing ditch through an extension of the present storm sewer lines. He explained that the backfilling specs have been changed to require the contractor to dry out the soils to the optimum level before filling. Thore expects that drying the soils may alleviate some future settlement. The service leads will be located on the center of the lot and will be extended an extra 10' into the lot. Vetsch made a motion to approve the plans and specs for the 1991-1 Improvement Project (Westwind Second Addition). Barthel seconded the motion. All voted aye. Attorney Mike Couri informed the Council that the assessments on the Sunrise Commercial Park development have been reviewed. The assessments should be for 105% of the total costs. Couri reported he has found that the project was assessed for more. It appears that a $5,000-$6,000 reduction in assessments should be made. He will check into the statutes to determine if are-assessment hearing must be held. Couri also reviewed the draft of the developer's agreement for Westwind Second Addition. Since the Corps of Engineers required some small changes in the detention pond, a paragraph concerning the siltation pond will be deleted. A final developer's agreement will be forwarded to the developer for signature as soon as it is completed. Couri advised the Council that the Parksedge development is nearly complete and the Council should bond to finance the project. Several other City projects may be tied into the same bond. The Council tabled discussion on the revised Personnel Policy until the next meeting.
