Councilmember Hendriksen replied yes. <br /> <br />Mr. Anderson inquired as to what has been done in his neighborhood that he has benefited from <br />these charges. He stated that he is charged for priority street lighting and there is a light located <br />one mile north and one mile west of him. <br /> <br />Director of Public Works Kapler reviewed the priority street lighting program. <br /> <br />Councihnember Hendriksen stated that when Mr. Anderson leaves his house they go south on <br />Ramsey Boulevard or south on Sunfish Lake Boulevard where there are street lights. What the <br />priority street lighting program did, was to identify the major intersections in need of lights and <br />then staff began placing lights at those intersections. The Public Works Committee reviews <br />requests for street lights and anyone can come in and make a request. <br /> <br />Mr. Anderson inquired if residents are charged different if they are on City sewer and water from <br />those that have no City services and if not they should be. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec replied that all residential properties are charged the same. <br /> <br />Councilmember Hendriksen stated that the water in Mr. Anderson's area tends to run to the low <br />area between Ramsey Boulevard and Sunfish Lake Boulevard. From there, it runs to County <br />Ditch #3 which needs improvement and because of that, 153rd/155th has flooded in the spring. <br /> <br />Mr. Anderson replied that the water level would have to go up 15 feet, which has not happened. <br />He stated that if residents could see something that would warrant the cost, there would probably <br />not be as many complaints. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec suggested that Mr. Anderson meet with staff to review the projects that will be <br />completed by the storm drainage utility. <br /> <br />APPROVE AGENDA <br /> <br />Councilmember Hendriksen requested that item #11 from the Consent Agenda be removed and <br />added as Case 5b. <br /> <br />City Administrator Norman noted that a Case #5 was added under Report from Finance <br />Committee. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Hendriksen, seconded by Councilmember Connolly, to approve the <br />agenda as amended. <br /> <br />Motion carried.
