<br />I <br /> <br /> <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />. <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />,. <br />I <br /> <br />~ <br />~HILLS <br /> <br />Ingerson Neighborhood Q&A <br />Pavement Management Meeting (PMP) <br />August 8, 2002; 7:00 p.m. <br /> <br />Page 3 of 4 <br /> <br />Comment: Could the water coming down Ingerson Road be channeled through an underground <br />system to the area is needs to be collected at (lower part of Ingerson Park). <br />From an engineering point of view it certainly is possible. Of course we would have to <br />look at grades to officially verify this possibility. <br /> <br />Comment: What is does NURP stand for. <br />National Urban Run-off Program which is a set of standards developed in the late '80s to <br />look at what could be done to improve water quality. <br /> <br />Comment: Would you expect the cost of the Fernwood Channel project be about $400,000. <br />No. It would be a City expense. Any water quality improvement is a City expense or <br />paid for by grants. <br /> <br />Comment: Where would you place the Grit Chamber if you were to use one in a roadway. <br />They would be placed where they are not visible somewhere under the roadway. All that <br />would be left would be the manhole cover. <br /> <br />Comment: How far down do you have to dig to place a Grit Chamber. <br />The actual chamber would be 6' high. <br /> <br />Comment: If you were to have a pond instead of a Grit Chamber would that need to vacuumed <br />out and if so would the surrounding habitat be greatly disturbed. <br />The pond would be designed so it would be easily accessible to cause the least amount of <br />damage as possible. <br /> <br />Comment: What is the main link to why you are proposing the Fernwood Channel project. <br />Because the City is using the neighborhood approach and will look at all issues when <br />improving a neighborhood. <br /> <br />Comment: How would you divert the water to west Hamline. <br />This idea was proposed at a former meeting. Engineering does not advocate that idea nor <br />does the watershed. This idea was listed to show it was at least considered. <br /> <br />Comment: In reviewing the Rice Creek Watershed Districts recommendations, it indicates street <br />sweeping should be done a minimum of 3 times a year. How often does the City sweep streets. <br />Twice a year - once in the spring and once in late summer, early fall. <br />
