City of Gem Lake City Council Meeting Minutes April 16, 2024 5 | Page Councilmember Johnson shared that the County Road E corridor team will be meeting with the contractor they have chosen some time in May to discuss a lot of the behind-the-scenes action and will hope to have more to report on at the June Council meeting. Councilmember Lindner shared that the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has said the city has satisfied all the environmental requirements allegedly violated on the city’s MS4 report and no further action is needed. Presentations from the Public, 2 Minutes Maximum Resident Jim Wilson was curious about the signs being replaced at the entrances of the Gem Lake Trail regarding dog waste and if they could be reused elsewhere in the Villas. The ideal location would be in the northern area near the cul-de-sac and one over by the mailboxes. The city doesn’t see any issue with that but would like Public Works to handle the installation to ensure the proper processes are being followed. Resident Jon Reigstad was curious about the water funding situation and where the city is at with those plans. Mayor Artig-Swomley shared that no decision has been made or will be made without obtaining the public’s feedback and that the city is only in the funding phase working to obtain funds to make it possible for the municipal water plan to even have a chance or being an option. Residents shouldn’t expect any immediate action and it could be a couple more years before any action is taken. Future Council Meetings City Council, Tuesday, May 21, 2024.
