TO: Mayor & City Council
Mark McNeill, City Administrator
FROM: Michael Hullander, Public Works Superintendent
DATE: October 16, 2012
SUBJECT: Discussion and Approval of 2012 -2013 Sidewalk/Trail Routes.
ACTION SOUGHT:
Motion to Approve the 2012 -2013 Sidewalk/Trail Snow Removal Routes.
INTRODUCTION:
Staff is requesting Council discuss and approve the sidewalk/trail routes for 2012 -2013
snow removal. Attached to this memo is the current Sidewalk/trail plow map with the
new additions circled for discussion.
BACKGROUND:
On December 6, 1994 City Council directed Public Works to begin snow removal on all
sidewalks and trails that abut collector streets and County Roadways. Staff currently has
seven plow routes covering approximately seventy miles of sidewalks and trails.
DISCUSSION:
Staff is requesting to add the sidewalks on CSAH 69 from Scott St. to Apgar St. (both
north and south), and only the north side from Apgar St. to Clay St. The remaining
sidewalk and trail segments along the newly constructed roadway will not be plowed.
We are also requesting to add the new sidewalk segment from Ramsey St. north to the
Upper Valley Trail and the new sidewalks and trails in and abutting Green Meadows
Park.
Staff is also requesting to continue to eliminate part of the newly constructed trail and
sidewalk segments along CSAH 16, 18, 21 and 83. Staff has confirmed the City of Prior
Lake will not be plowing their trail segments along these roadways.
Also in extreme snow events, staff cannot meet the current time -lines as set forth in City
Ordinance Sec. 7.04 requiring the snow to be removed in 24 hours for commercial and 36
hours for residential sidewalks.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Motion to approve the 2012/2013 sidewalk and trail snow removal routes.
2. Motion to approve the 2012/2013 sidewalk and trail snow removal routes and
as modified by City Council.
3. Table for additional information.
ACTION REQUESTED:
Motion to Approve the 2012 -2013 Sidewalk/Trail Snow Removal Routes.
