Voting Yes. Chairperson Elvig and Councilmembers McGlone and Dehen. <br />Voting No: None. <br />Case #4: Declare Pea Rock Excess Inventory <br />Public Works Street Supervisor Riemer reviewed the staff report. <br />Councilmember Dehen asked if there is any benefit in using the pea rock in large parking lots <br />just to use up the excess. <br />Councilmember McGlone stated the pea rock is not good for fill, it has limited use, and he <br />wouldn't recommend using it on any project. <br />The Committee discussed options for discarding the pea rock such as advertising it for free and <br />residents who want it could haul it away for personal usage. <br />Councilmember Dehen stated that he felt it could be used for future projects, to use it when the <br />City needed. <br />Councilmember McGlone stated the pea rock is not a good material for the process and is costing <br />more to sit in the lot. He also stated it would definitely cost more in the future if the City were to <br />use it on a project. <br />Chairperson Elvig stated he feels it would be better for residential use such as garden drainage. <br />Motion by Chairperson Elvig, seconded by Councilmember McGlone, that City Council declare <br />the pea gravel excess inventory and to recommend publishing an article in the Ramsey Resident <br />announcing the availability to Ramsey residents of pea rock for pick up at the Public Works <br />Facility. <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Elvig and Councilmember McGlone. Voting No: <br />Councilmember Dehen. <br />Case #5: Considerations of Concrete versus Asphalt Pavements <br />Assistant City Engineer Jankowski reviewed the staff report. <br />Councilmember Dehen asked if a comparison on life cycles was done. He stated the comparison <br />given didn't seem like a fair comparison, being the costs were so different. <br />Public Works Committee / August 19, 2009 <br />Page 5 of 8 <br />
