Deputy Gary <br /> I Wilzbacher of the Ramsey County Sheriffs Department Crime Prevention Unit gave a <br /> presentation on several new programs his department is implementing. <br /> I Regarding a request last spring for ordinances governing watercraft on Lake Josephine, the <br /> Commission was provided copies of the new water ordinances for Lake Owasso and the Joint <br /> I Powers Agreement between Shoreview and Roseville pertaining to those ordinances. The <br /> Commission discussed the ordinances, but took no action at this time. <br /> Ie Chairman Delger asked that the Commission consider trail crosswalks be painted and signs be <br /> installed at street and trail crossings. This idea was discussed and no action was taken. <br /> I Public Works Employees asked the Commission to consider and recommend to Council <br /> installation of a stop sign on Northwoods Drive at Red Fox Road. This issue was discussed and <br /> the Public Safety Commission recommended the Public Works Superintendent ask Council's <br /> I approval for this sign. <br /> Public Works <br /> I Two (2) Public Works Employees worked at the Fall Clean-Up Day on Saturday, October 4. <br /> Twice a year two (2) Public Works Employees work at this function. <br /> I Approximately 50 CIl water meters have now been replaced or upgraded to the new radio read <br /> system. Very few problems with the installations have occurred. Scheduling is the main issue as <br /> I Public Works tries to do the installations during regular working hours. <br /> The entire watermain system was flushed again during the first two (2) weeks of October with no <br /> I complaints. <br /> The maintenance on the south water tower has been completed and that tower is back in <br /> I operation. During maintenance the tower was drained for nearly two weeks. After the work was <br /> complete the tower had to be filled, disinfected, flushed, refilled, and the water tested for bacteria <br /> .. before placing back in service. <br /> I <br />
