<br />going to hool( the neighborhoods together and it was voted down, but when they learned the road <br />was going through she spol(e with Mr. Norman and Mr. Olson. She explained drainage and <br />utility easements for Pondvale Estates currently runs through their development. Her concern <br />was if the road was going to be run through to the north it would be a good time to look at their <br />addition. Ms. Asmussen stated their neighborhood also has a horrible problem with parking <br />during any school events; people parl( on both side of the road and cars cannot get through. She <br />has called numerous people and voiced her concerns. With the road going through now they are <br />getting more and more traffic. <br /> <br />Ms. Asmussen stated when the road was being put through they made it known that they would <br />like to mal(e their last two lots buildable. They tall(ed to Mr. Norman and he said nothing will be <br />done in Pondvale Second Estates; they are just cutting the cul-de-sac off. She stated they have <br />run curb and gutter down her property and it runs drainage right into their drainage. With the big <br />thaw it was flooded out up to her split rail fence. There is no wall(ing space for the l(ids to wall( <br />to school so they wall( across her property and right across this pond. She questioned who will <br />be responsible if someone gets hurt. She stated there is a lot more drainage being tal(en on and <br />this will be a big issue. Their development has a petition in for a feasibility study for city <br />services, but something needs to be looked at. They cannot take on this water in that small <br />drainage area. When the new road was being put in and she called to ask why curb and gutter <br />was being put on her property, and the response was that they were not being sent a bill for it. <br /> <br />Chairperson Elvig clarified Ms. Asmussen's concern is that the curb is abutting her property, <br />which is not allowing some of the drainage to flow over. <br /> <br />Ms. Asmussen replied it is funneling the drainage right into her drainage. <br /> <br />City Engineer Janl(owski indicated it is his understanding that there is a catch basin that should <br />be located on the property line at the new development at the bottom of the road. It may be that <br />the drainage is not going to the catch basin because of a silt fence may have been placed over the <br />grates for the winter. <br /> <br />Chairperson Elvig informed Ms. Asmussen that her concerns are noted in the minutes and will be <br />lool(ed into. He indicated the City is interested in improving Helium Street. <br /> <br />City Engineer Janl(owsl(i stated there is a petition in for improvements to Helium Street and the <br />feasibility study is being updated. Staff will contact Ms. Asmussen regarding her concerns. <br /> <br />Chairperson Elvig requested that the Committee be informed about the issues associated with the <br />concerns expressed by Ms. Asmussen. <br /> <br />Councilmember Olson directed staff to look into the parking concerns expressed by Ms. <br />Asmussen as well. <br /> <br />Case #4: <br /> <br />Consider Financing for 160th Lane Paving Project <br /> <br />Public Works Committee / March 20, 2007 <br />Page 11 of 14 <br />
