The <br /> leak was repaired and the road has been patched. The forcemain is owned by the <br /> Metropolitan Council's sewer division. This is the forcemain that they are currently in the <br /> process of replacing. I called the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency to make sure that <br /> they were investigating the spill. <br /> * The election process went smoothly. No ballot boxes were lost and we obtained local <br /> results days before national results were announced! Nice job to all of the election <br /> officials. There was early morning and early evening congestion at the polls. We will look <br /> at alternate polling locations for the next general election. I spoke to the Circle Pines <br /> Administrator in regards to their elections. They have two polling places, but the same total <br /> number of election booths as we own. However, we registered many more new voters than <br /> they did which helps to congest the polling place. Centerville had approximately an 80% <br /> turnout of registered voters. <br /> * The groundbreaking ceremony was a success for the County Bank on Monday even <br /> though the weather was not extremely cooperative. Footings were poured earlier this week <br /> and it appears the foundation walls are going up quickly. <br /> * The Planning and Zoning Commission meets on Tuesday of next week. The meeting <br /> was rescheduled due to the general election. Council voted to reschedule the next Council <br /> meeting to Monday, November 20th at 6:00 to avoid having a Council meeting the evening <br /> before Thanksgiving. <br /> * The Centerville Lion's may be once again distributing Thanksgiving baskets to needy <br /> families. If you know of anyone that is having some financial difficulties and the Lion's <br /> could assist them, please let me know. <br /> * Enjoy your weekend! <br /> 11/9/00 <br />
