5. Comments and suggestions from citizens present on any item not on the
agenda.
Joseph Venglass, 4925 Bartlett Boulevard, said he had talked to Mayor about the
storm drain after the road improvement saying it is now worse than it was in 1991.
Hoversten said he has discussed with the engineers and said that the aprons need
to be resurveyed to ensure the desired elevations have been achieved. Hoversten
described the objectives of catch basin design and noted that it is designed for 10 —
20 year storm events. Hoversten said fixing the aprons will resolve where the water
surcharges will discharge. Hoversten said the swale of the backyard has to be
evaluated as well. Wegscheid asked if there was a timeline and Hoversten said the
objective is to come up with the actionable items prior to the October 24, 2017
assessment hearing. Venglass said the apron will not solve it completely and the
same fixes from the 1990's are required again.
Mound City Council Minutes — September 12, 2017
Ray Chamberlain 4913 Bartlett Boulevard said a 24" pipe was used and that the
next size is 30", which would increase capacity by 50%. Chamberlain said two
drains on Norwood were cut out on this project increasing the flow near his home.
Chamberlain said the engineers objected to the 7 degree angle curb out of fear the
cars would scrape, but Chamberlain said there is plenty of clearance even with his
Toyota Prius.
Hoversten said the bottleneck is from the catch basins to the lake. Chamberlain
noted the engineers said a one mile area is draining to this area. Venglass said they
added drains on Norwood to increase capacity.
Mayor Wegscheid said that he will direct the Staff and engineers to propose a
solution and arrange a meeting with the Public Works Committee who will be in
contact with the residents.
Kelsey Chase, 3331 Tuxedo Boulevard, said she moved to town three years ago
and wanted to express concern about the water bills and wanted to know what the
public input process looks like. Mayor Wegscheid said it was discussed at the last
meeting on August 22nd which can be viewed on the LMCC website and will be
discussed again at the October 17 workshop, with the final rates set at the
December 12th final meeting of the year.

Labor Relations Act, Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 179A
