I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br /> <br />PUBLIC WORKS REPORT <br />APRIL AND MAY <br /> <br />In April and May, the majority of our time was spent sweeping City streets. As you know, this <br />year we joined forc*$ with the City of Andover. This was done to see how much time it would <br />take to clean up both icitiesl I was not satisfied with the results. <br /> <br />We started working ',in Ramsey in our storm sewer area, then proceeded to do Andover's storm <br />sewer area. We then[Came back to Ramsey to f'mish the rest of the streets, then back to Andover to <br />finish their streets. All together, I feel it took entirely too long. Our sweeper did the bulk of the <br />work. Because we have a mechanical sweeper, we made the first pass on all the streets, with <br />Andover's sweeper doing the clean-up pass, thereby putting twice as many hours on our sweeper <br />then if we would have done the work by ourselves. <br /> <br />Next year I plan to Contract with a company for two sweepers. That, plus our own, we would <br />possibly get the job done in one week. <br /> <br />We spent some time ion equipment and building maintenance, mainly at the new shop. Bids have <br />been awarded for the:installation of the new floor. This should be completed in the near future. <br /> <br />Boulevard damage has been repaired and all mailboxes have been replaced for the year. <br /> <br /> <br />
