4. Communication Items <br />Public Works Director Culver provided a brief review and update on projects and <br />maintenance activities listed in the staff report dated August 23, 2022. <br />Mr. Culver updated the Commission on the Commission vacancy and <br />interview/appointment process coming up. <br />Chair Ficek indicated the student Commission Member is on a separate timeline <br />from the Commission appointment. He thought the Council changed the <br />requirements. <br />Mr. Culver explained the Council discussed changes but there were no changes <br />made. The Youth Commissioner still needs to be a Roseville resident to apply to <br />be a Youth Commission Member. <br />Chair Ficek asked if most of the projects, with the exception of B2, are expected to <br />wrap up by the start of the State Fair. <br />Mr. Culver explained some projects will be taking a pause or will be far enough <br />away from the park and ride areas to not be an issue. <br />Member Cicha asked if the City had any policy about wearing life preservers for <br />their employees or contractors that are out on a boat. <br />Mr. Culver explained there is not too much of that in the City. He asked Mr. <br />Johnson if the City requires contractors to wear life jackets. <br />Mr. Johnson believed the City at least has the contractors have life preservers in <br />their boats. <br />Mr. Culver thought the City would defer to OSHA in that regard. He thought if the <br />City was hiring someone to be on a boat, there would be OSHA regulations for that <br />type of activity and he imagined life preservers would be mentioned to be at least <br />on the boat, but he was not familiar with that. <br />Chair Ficek noticed the City sent out fifteen hundred mailings and wondered if <br />there was any response or updates to provide. <br />Ms. Bakken indicated staff has had a handful of responses but compared to the last <br />mailing sent out, at least for businesses, staff has had more people call in with <br />questions about environmental things. <br />Chair Ficek noticed the tree sale was going on and he asked how that was working <br />out. <br />Ms. Bakken explained the tree sale is almost done and extremely popular. <br />Page 2 of 9 <br />
