Contact <br />Ramsey County about more signage for cross walks. Sign for Hoffman Road and Scheuneman Road <br />needs to be put back up, Mr. Gese will contact the county to check on status. Greg Martz – AM/PM – <br />during the Scheuneman Road construction it was impossible to get cars in and out of the shop, road <br />basically a mud pit and impassible, and it cut into Mr. Martz’s income. Justin Gese – should have <br />notified the city right away about this. Laurel Amlee – agrees with Mr. Birkeland’s comments about <br />Hoffman Road, again, happy to have HyVee. Mr. Gese – the sanitary sewer on Hoffman Road will be <br />relined this year. If there is a repair, a cost analysis will be done. Councilmember Lindner – bus rapid <br />transit meeting about the County Road E Station, Tuesday, August 14, 3:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m. – Buerkle <br />Buick. $450 million for a bus line?
