ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JANUARY 17, 2023 11 <br /> <br /> <br />Councilmember Rousseau asked if they knew if hearing aids that came without a prescription <br />could also work with the T-Coil. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden thought a less expensive hearing aid would probably not have T-coil <br />compatibility. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant asked if they will be able to have both technologies; the current and new. <br /> <br />City Administrator Perrault thought they would be able to, but would confirm with NineNorth. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant directed staff to move forward but find out what the annual upgrade cost would be <br />and make Council aware of it in case there are objections. <br /> <br />G. Pavement Condition Update and 2023 Street and Trail Maintenance Plan <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reviewed the IMS automated survey, <br />Pavement Condition Index (PCI) including pavement preservation and rehabilitation, the <br />proposed 20-year Pavement Management Plan (PMP) projects, the proposed street maintenance <br />plan for 2023 and the projected PCI through 2027. He explained the JPA process with Coon <br />Rapids for street maintenance activities and the financial benefit of the JPA along with work that <br />can be done in-house. <br /> <br />Councilmember Monson asked if staff could obtain a map of what Ramsey County is planning <br />to work on. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated he could and that he considers County <br />projects when he plans for work in the city. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden asked if he could also find information on culverts. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said he could look into that. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant felt they Council would want to give approval to submit the maintenance plan to <br />the JPA to get the economy of scale pricing due to the large number of cities involved. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reviewed the newly developed six-year <br />street maintenance cycle and noted that some streets aren’t highlighted because of PMPs. <br /> <br />H. Parkshore Exercise Station Trail Loop – Official Name Discussion <br /> <br />Mayor Grant said they need to pick a name for the new park at Round Lake Senior Living, and <br />the names recommended by the PTRC were Fitness Park and Trail, or Round Lake Fitness Park <br />and Trail. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden mentioned the equipment is for people over 55 years old and if Round <br />Lake were in the name people wouldn’t find it because it’s on Parkshore Drive. <br />
