ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION — AUGUST 15, 2022 7 Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said it was his understanding the drainage issues were at the catch basin, not along the street. The pavement is complete but seeding hasn't taken place. Staff could look into a cost-effective alternative for curb in that area. Councilmember Radziej suggested using the type of curbing that is sometimes used in landscaping. Councilmember Holden asked if the old Smith Medical Building was full, and thought the information could be given at the State of the City. Councilmember Radziej said he had been seeing semitrucks with trailers on the north side of the road at International Paper. Councilmember Scott said he would forward an email he received regarding a rental property on Grant Avenue. He also asked about the drainage pond on Indian Oaks trail. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said the pond was lowered 2.5 feet, and it now sits at the outlet elevation. Mayor Grant reported that he has been using his laptop instead of a paper copy of the agenda for the last eight months and felt it was working. He invited other Councilmembers to try going paperless. Councilmember Holmes said she would try going paperless. City Administrator Perrault asked if Council would like to schedule a Special Work Session with Ramsey County to discuss the staging of the roundabout on County Road E, on either September 12 or 26, and before or after the Council meeting. It was determined to schedule the special meeting on September 12. City Administrator Perrault stated the cost to stripe pickleball courts was $275. After discussion it was decided to have the contractor stripe a court at Freeway Park, and two courts at Hazelnut Park. ADJOURN Mayor Grant adjourned the City Council Work Session at 8: p.m. r Jo ne Trauba David Grant Deputy City Clerk Mayor
