8.f) Public Works September ReportSeptember Activity Report, Public Works Department, October 20, 2015
The ditching work on Pilar and Paris road is coming along very well. In some areas it is
completed.
Quinnell Avenue was completed and looks and drives very well. Public Works is now in
the process of placing new signage to up -grade the original signs that were in place.
Automatic systems did complete the procedures to get the new SCADA system mobile. It
has been working efficiently for a period of time now. Public Works mobile phones are set
up and we have been able to utilize the system a couple of times. I still stay in contact with
IT tech in case there are any glitches. None have accrued.
Our street and I.D. sign replacement has been going well. We completed putting in all the
bases for the signs. We have begun putting the new signs in place. MNDOT has a new
policy that requires all I.D. signs above stop sign on the same post on county and main
trunk highways needed to be removed. They began with county 97. So we had to relocate
the I.D. signs across the road.
We have begun our second round of ditch mowing for the season
We have cut and removed 4 trees in the last month. Some of the wood was claimed by
residents
We also repaired 2 septic systems in the Bliss. Pumped septic and pump motor repair.
Things are running normal at this time.
Christina, our summer help, her employment for the season has come to an end. I felt that
the Cities parks and ball fields had been well maintained. A job -well-done was passed on to
her.
Thank You
