ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 11 <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said PTRC members have been asked to use <br />the online request tracker (Report a Concern) to report issues. They have developed their own <br />checklist to use when they go through the parks/trails. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden asked if staff had contacted MnDOT to see why they stopped cutting <br />buckthorn on Highway 51 at the Arden Hills line. <br /> <br />Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said he had played phone tag with someone <br />last year but he can re-engage the conversation. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden suggested they send a formal letter. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant noted that the City will repair mailboxes if they are physically hit with a plow, not <br />just an ice chunk hitting a mailbox. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden said she would like to have a professional do the crack sealing on the <br />courts instead of staff. <br /> <br />C. Tree Management Plan Discussion <br /> <br /> After discussion the Council agreed to the following: <br />• Contract with Rainbow Tree Care to provide EAB treatment to City ash trees by injection <br />and a discount to residents to treat existing ash trees on private property. <br />• Contract with Rainbow Tree Care to provide EAB treatment to City ash trees by ground <br />treatment. <br />• Contract with Rainbow Tree Care to provide two-lined chestnut-borer treatment to City <br />oak trees. <br />• Add extra trees to the scope for Margolis Company, utilizing the remaining budget in the <br />tree fund. <br />Further discussion ensued regarding buddy trees being installed once there is additional money in <br />the landscaping fund. <br /> <br />D. Public Inquiry Language Update <br /> <br />Council agreed to new language as shown in the memo: This is an opportunity for citizens to <br />respectfully bring to the Council’s attention any items which are relevant to the City. In <br />addressing the Council, you must first state your name and address for the record. Comments shall <br />be limited to three (3) minutes or less. Written documents may be distributed to the Council prior <br />to the start of the meeting to allow a more timely presentation. Council will generally not respond <br />at the same meeting where an issue is initially raised by a member of the public but the Council <br />may refer the issue to staff for further research and possible report or action at a future Council <br />meeting. <br /> <br />E. Council Norms of Behavior Discussion <br />
