Member Hodder asked how Lead Free Roseville is going <br />Mr. Freihammer indicated it is going slower than staff was hoping. He believed <br />twenty-seven percent of the people have submitted, which is ok, but he was hoping <br />that number would be closer to fifty by now. Staff is in the process of sending out <br />letters to people who have not responded. He noted there are ten confirmed lead <br />surfaces in Roseville and are all still in one isolated neighborhood. <br />Chair Ficek indicated in the update it talked about removing City -owned bus <br />shelters; he asked staff to expand on that. <br />Mr. Freihammer explained that in the late 1990's, early 2000's, when Larpenteur <br />was reconstructed and streetscape was put in, the City installed four bus shelters. <br />One was removed years ago due to the wind and was not replaced, but there is one <br />at Hamline, one at Fernwood and another is at Lexington and all of them are in <br />disrepair and in need of replacement. Staff did look at the usage data and these did <br />not meet the criteria for replacement. He noted the one that did meet the criteria, <br />Fernwood, will be transferred to the Met Council and the Met Council will install <br />their own shelter at that location. <br />5.
