City Engineer Himmer asked if rocks are the main issue. The Committee agreed that is the main <br />issue. <br />Public Works Director Olson asked if it would resolve the problem if the rocks are picked out so <br />the grass can grow. The Committee agreed that would resolve the problem. <br />City Administrator Ulrich asked if a post -project survey should be conducted during the winter <br />months to determine the residents with an issue. <br />Councilmember Backous noted that could change by the spring so he supported sending a letter <br />telling residents it would be inspected in the spring. <br />Councilmember Elvig suggested the letter also indicate that the Public Works Committee has <br />been reviewing the issue and, at a minimum, will remove the rock, assess the type of turf <br />coverage, and take remedy action depending its discovery in the spring. <br />City Engineer Himmer asked if the letter should include discussion of taking ownership. <br />Councilmember Elvig agreed it should be explained the City will do this one thing and after that <br />property owners need to take over. <br />Public Works Committee consensus was reached to direct staff to write a letter for Public Works <br />Committee review indicating the property will be inspected in the spring to determine whether <br />additional corrective actions are necessary and, at a minimum, the rocks will be removed. After <br />that, the property owners are expected to take over responsibility. <br />Case #5: Approve Final Draft of RFP and Contract with Contracted Sweeping <br />Services <br />Street Supervisor Riemer reviewed the staff report. <br />Chairperson McGlone asked if it includes the contractor taking away swept materials from <br />Public Works. <br />Street Supervisor Riemer explained that would be an alternate bid and the contractor would <br />dump road debris on the City's site. Or, the contractor can bid to truck away the road debris <br />without dumping. <br />Motion by Councilmember Backous, seconded by Councilmember Elvig, to recommend that the <br />City Council approve the Response for Proposal for 2012 spring sweeping subject to legal <br />review. <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson McGlone and Councilmembers Backous and Elvig. <br />Voting No: None. <br />Case #6: Discuss Potential Reconstruction of Garnet Street, North of 167th Avenue <br />Public Works Committee / November 15, 2011 <br />Page 9 of 15 <br />
