Communication Items <br />Duane Schwartz updated the Commission an Twin Lakes and the city leaf <br />program. <br />Deb Bloom updated the Commissian an the sewer lining project. Chair <br />DeBenedet asked haw private lines are handled during this process. Ms. <br />Bloom said that residents are notified if any problems are observed in their <br />SerVlee. <br />Membex Neprash asked about leaf pickup and said that his neighborhood <br />had been the first on the pickup list this year and since the leaves fell late <br />there are still many leaves in the streets.
