Mr. Raatikka referred to complaints that construction vehicles are using area residential streets to access Juniper Woods and indicated that the contractor has notified his suppliers to stay off of residential streets. A designated haul route sign has also been posted on Waco Street. Mayor Reimann instructed Mr. Raatikka to check to make sure that all required designated haul route signs are posted. Dorothy Stadfelt - Stated that the residents agreed to no street barricades between the developments to prevent truck traffic through adjacent neighborhoods but the haul route signs have not been posted and the temporary Ute Street was not constructed; the area residents have been violated again. Mr. Raatikka stated that Ute and Tonto Streets were graded; the development agreement indicates that no building permits will be issued until those sweets are paved. Jean Schlueter - Requested that the City give serious consideration to what is being proposed and consider putting Lot 1 back into grass and trees; nature was taking care of the drainage so well without any pipe or trench. The City should not put Lot 1 up to grade level and let it do what it did before and let Juniper Woods take care of their problems on their own property. Bruce Schlueter - 15011 Juniper Ridge Drive - Stated that Council should give consideration to how the lots in Rum Acres Estates were marketed. The people were told that Lot 1 was an open lot and necessary for drainage in the area and that it would not be disrupted until sewer and water had to come into the area. The people were promised an open lot for park area that never occurred. Motion by Councilmember Peterson and seconded by Councilmember Pearson to deny the request for a change order to amend the drainage pattern for Juniper Woods by installing underground pipes to redirect the drainage from Lot 1, Block 5, Rum Acres Estates to the drainage easement area in Juniper Woods. Further, that Lot 1, Block 5 Rum Acres Estates be restored as close as possible to the natural state in which it was found prior to development of Juniper Woods. Further Discussion: Councilmember Pearson inquired if same material that was removed from Lot 1 can be placed back on the lot and Mr. Raatikka replied that it is possible. Councilmember DeLuca inquired if the City will be liable if the pond area does not function after it is returned to it's natural state. Mr. Goodrich replied that the City would be liable.
