Mayor Gamec stated that speeding in neighborhoods is a serious problem throughout thc City <br />and it is typically the local residents that are speeding. <br /> <br />Councilmember Kurak stated that she would like to explore the issue further rather than just <br />ignoring it. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec recommended that Ms. Malek notify the Police of the peak time of traffic so that <br />they can increase patrol in the area. <br /> <br />Consensus of the Council was to discuss the issue further at a future Public Works Committee <br />meeting. <br /> <br />Trudy Mattila 7451-149th Avenue NW, Ramsey, stated that she still has the issue with her <br />neighbor and all the dogs and vehicles being kept on the property. She explained that numerous <br />complaints were filed in the past and she was told three years ago that the issue was being <br />referred to an Attorney. <br /> <br />City Attorney Goodrich recommended that Ms. Mattila discuss the issue with Sergeant Way. <br /> <br />Ms. Mattila stated that they also have a speeding problem in their neighborhood. The reason she <br />is attending the meeting was because she noted that consent agenda items 18 and 25 were <br />relating to the costs to be assessed to homeowners for their street improvement project. She <br />stated that she had just received her assessment in the mail and inquired if it was true that people <br />are assessed based on frontage, not by Property Identification Number (PIN). <br /> <br />City Engineer Olson replied that that was correct. <br /> <br />Ms. Mattila inquired if the property the Bright Keys project is being proposed for would be <br />assessed the same as a single homeowner. <br /> <br />City Engineer Olson replied yes. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated that residents would be able to discuss the issue further during the public <br />hearing. The consent agenda item calls for the public hearing to be scheduled. <br /> <br />Bill Fredrick, 158th Avenue NW, Ramsey, stated that the Park and Recreation Commission is <br />going to be meeting tomorrow night to discuss the future of Trap Rock Park. He stated that it <br />was a shame that a neighborhood that would be directly impacted did not receive individual <br />notification of the meeting. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated that at this point they are looking for feedback from people on what to do <br />with the park. There was an article regarding the meeting in the Ramsey Resident, which is a tool <br />the City uses to communicate with residents. <br /> <br />City Council/September 11, 2002 <br /> Page 5 of 31 <br /> <br /> <br />
