example of the winter operating forecast that staff receives twice a day for the winter months and <br />reviewed the plow route outline of the issues that are pertinent to the snowplowing procedures. <br />Mayor Gamec inquired as to when the trails within the two-mile radius of the school are plowed. <br />Street Supervisor Riemer explained that the trails are plowed by 8:00 a.m. <br />Councilmember Zimmerman inquired if the City pays for the weather forecasting service. <br />Street Supervisor Riemer replied yes. He explained that it costs the City about $700 a year, <br />which may seem like a lot, but it can save the City money by not sending out salt trucks when <br />they are not needed. <br />Street Supervisor Riemer stated that it will be important for the City to look at implementing a <br />policy for maintenance of trails and sidewalks. Currently there is no policy in place and with all <br />the new developments being required to install sidewalks it will be an issue they have to address. <br />Councilmember Zimmerman stated that within the Town Center the City will probably have to <br />remove snow and questioned where the City would place that snow. <br />Street Supervisor Riemer explained that for the first few years they will probably be able to store <br />the snow on the Town Center property, but they are looking at the possibility of using the large <br />holding area behind Shorewood RV for snow storage. <br />Assistant Director of Public Works Olson noted that the reason they would be able to use that <br />drainage pond is because it does not have any outlet to the Mississippi River. <br />Councilmember Zimmerman inquired if a drainage and utility easement allows for the City to use <br />the area for snow storage. <br />Director of Public Works/Fire Chief Kapler replied that it was his understanding that the City <br />owned the drainage pond, but he would verify that information. <br />Councilmember Zimmerman replied that if the City does not own the property the property owner <br />may be concerned with the additional salt. <br />Mayor Gamec inquired as to how they were doing with the relocation of cul-de-sac mailboxes. <br />Street Supervisor Riemer replied that about 97 percent of the mailboxes have been moved, but <br />there are still a few they are working on. <br />Councilmember Cook suggested that staff include then snowplowing information in the Ramsey <br />Resident. <br />Public Works Committee/November 18, 2003 <br />Page 2 of 10 <br />
