. Arden Hills Council 3 Apri 1 12, 1993 Graham reviewed the schedule for 1993 Pavement Maintenance Program, which called for 1) Assessment hearing to be held May 10, 2) Awarding of the project June 4, 3) Construction to commence in July 1993, and 4) Completion of the project in August 1993. Mayor Sather advised the public that if an individual property is assessed more than a $500 assessment, that assessment will be payable over a five year period with interest; if an individual property is assessed less than a $500 assessment, that assessment will be payable over a three year period with interest. He added that there would be no interest applied if the assessment were paid in full within thirty days of the assessment hearing. Names were called in the order listed on the guest register. Comments made by citizens are as follows (not verbatim): . Gordon Fay, 1841 Gramsie Road - I am not opposed to this improvement project, but I request that concrete curb and gutter be installed at least for my property; I would be willing to pay for it. It is important that the City review the drainage situation at Fairview because drainage there is blocked and creates drainage problems in other locations. Jim Talbott, 1810 GramsiemB_oad - My home was built in 1961 before Gramsie Road was completed. The home was built at an appropriate elevation according to the street plan, but the street plan was not followed, hence, there are water drainage problems. I fear that if the street were raised, even as insignificantly as 1-1/2 inches for overlay, there would be an increased water drainage problem affecting my property. Graham said he would review any potential problem areas with residents, City public works crew, and the contractor to analyze what measures should be taken to enhance drainage. He added that it is customary for the contractor to "fea ther" the bi tuminous over! ay to match driveway approaches as well as possible. . Ken Hanzalik, 1768 Venus Avenue - I and my neighbor, Walt Harmer of 1776 Venus Avenue experience drainage problems when there is a heavy rainfall. Mr. Harmer sent a letter to the City regarding this matter, but received no response. Perhaps we need a situation like that which exists at the Dellview/Glen View Court area, or perhaps a new manhole cover would help. When was road work last done on Venus Avenue? Crystal Avenue had work done on it just last year and it is already cracked. I support spending money wisely and I don't think we need concrete curbs on these
