Rice Creek Watenhed District Drain Stenciline: Proe:ram Ms. Dawn Dubats, coordinator for the Rice Creek Watershed Stenciling Program picked up the 10 kits left at City Hall on Thursday, May 13, 2004. Approximately 150 of the 200 storm drains have been stenciled by volunteers, consisting mostly of Parks & Recreation Committee Members, Council Member Capra & local CublBoy Scouts and a few residents. Some areas weren't stenciled because of road construction and overlay. Private roads were not done. Two stencils were left at City Hall for Public Works to touch up some stencils and do storm drains after the road construction is completed. Committee Member Ziegler recommended sending a thank you note to Council Member Capra and the CublBoy Scouts who participated in the stenciling program. Chairperson Peterson said he would take care of this. Chairperson Peterson will also supply Ms. Stephan with the totals of the number of storm drains which were stenciled so the information can be sent to Dawn Dubats, Rice Creek Watershed District.
