<br />ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - October 16,2006 <br /> <br />Councibnember Pellegrin said that animal control is not a public safely issue. It is more of a quality of <br />life issue. <br /> <br />Councilrnember Larson noted that the City currently contributes $500.00 per year towards geese <br />removal for Lake Johanna. There have been problems with geese at the beach in the past. <br /> <br />CounciImember Pellegrin said that in his opinion the only reason why the City should get involved in wild <br />animal control is when it is deemed a public safety problem. <br /> <br />Councilmember Gl3I1t said that he is not supportive of the City providing assistance for wild animal <br />cOntrol. <br /> <br />CounciImember Larson said that the City may have a problem with geese at the Tony Schmidt Park <br />public beach if they do not continue to remove the geese on a yearly basis. <br /> <br />Mayor Aplikowski noted that the beach should be the responsibility of Ramsey County and not the <br />City. <br /> <br />CounciImember Larson said that Ramsey County has refused to pay for this service in the past. <br /> <br />City Administrator Wolfe said that City staff will provide information to the public regarding animal <br />control issues and will only address animal control issues that could impact public safely in Arden Hills. <br /> <br />Council Comments and Requests- <br />CounciImember Larson raised a question about proposed variances to driveways. He was wondering if <br />the City Council should review the issue of multiple access driveways at a i1ture meeting. [t was his <br />understanding that the City Council's intent was to have one paved driveway access per property <br />owner. <br /> <br />Members of the City Council were in agreement that residents should be allowed only one paved <br />driveway access in Arden Hills. <br /> <br />City Administrator Michelle Wolfe stated that a few of the residents along Siems Court are upset about <br />the narrowing oftbe roadways in the 2006 PMP project. City staff is working on a response to the <br />residents concerns and will forward a copy of the response to you in the weekly administrative report. <br /> <br />Mayor Aplikowski acljoumed the Work Session meeting at 9:45 p.m. <br /> <br />Beverly Aplikowski <br />Mayor <br /> <br />Michelle A.
