City Council Study Session - 08/15/05 Minutes - Page 6 Mayor Klausing opined his support of continuing the compliance check process. Chief Sletner, in response to the allegations from the business owner at the last meeting, that "Roseville Police Department looks the other way," noted her conversation with the School Liaison Officer and the facts that the Officer and School officials were cognizant of student behavior on and off campus, was aware of concerns and were addressing them continually. 4. Discuss Amending the City Code to Require Speed Humps in Mobile Home Parks City Manager Neal Beets advised that current City Code did not require speed humps in mobile home parks. Mr. Beets noted that streets within the mobile home parks were considered private roads, and the City didn't provide speed enforcement on private property. Mr. Beets sought Council direction prior to expending additional staff and City Attorney time and resources. Discussion included private versus public roadways; other concerns at ring roads at malls, school parking lots and other retail establishments; and cost-sharing and/or responsibility for installation of speed humps. Councilmember Kough opined the ordinance should remain as is, and if speed humps were needed, it was the responsibility of the mobile home park owner, not the City. Councilmember Ihlan opined that she was not opposed to such a provision, given public safety issues; and suggested that the City look at such a provision being incorporated into rental property licensing that included all multi-family apartment complexes, shopping malls, mobile home parks, and other applications as apparent. Public Comment Barb Mastel, 2599 N. Lexington Ave. Ms. Mastel noted that she lived in the mobile home park and had requested Council consideration of this item, at the direction of park residents. Ms. Mastel noted that no one adheres to the Speed Humps in Mobile Home Parks
