COUNCIL/STAFF COMMENTS <br />Councilmember Scott asked about fire hydrants being covered. <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Sue Polka responded that the hydrants are covered <br />because they are in need of repair and they will be taken care of ASAP. <br />Councilmember Scott noted that he attended the townhalls for State Representative Jessup and <br />State Senator Isaacson. <br />Councilmember Holden mentioned that she is seeing homes doing remodeling without permits. <br />She suggested that Council members call City Hall to see if permits are being issued. She also <br />wondered if the City could develop a "community cheat sheet" for residents. <br />City Administrator Joynes said the Communications Coordinator can be tasked with creating a <br />new resident sheet. <br />Councilmember Holmes noted that we are at Level 1 of the Green Step program. She felt the <br />City needs to get to Level 2 and she will make it one of her causes. <br />Mayor Grant mentioned the County has been painting crosswalks and suggested the crosswalk to <br />the Ramsey County Library on County Road E2 needs to be eliminated. Also, he would like to <br />see a crosswalk added on New Brighton Road where it crosses to the Hanson Homes <br />development. <br />ADJOURN <br />Mayor Grant adjourned the City Council Work Session at 8:19 p.m. <br />1441 <br />4ne Trau David Grant <br />Deputy Clerk Mayor <br />
