Mr. McRunnels offered to get the community of Emerald <br /> Lake organized to expedite the process. Mr. McRunnels complimented the City Council <br /> on many visible accomplishments over the last few years. <br /> <br /> Council members stated that the City is taking a serious look at sub-standard streets in a <br /> very methodical manner so that roads that are in very poor condition can be placed on the <br /> list of city projects. It was requested that the City Clerk department place Mr. Runnels on <br /> the agenda mailing list, so that Mr. McRunnels is notified of when the next study sessions <br /> on City road conditions will take place. <br /> <br /> Linda Orandi resident of Emerald Lake reiterated the comments made by Mr. McRunnels <br /> and requested that improvements be done as soon as possible. Ms. Orandi appreciates the <br /> signs the City is placing in the area, and strongly recommends speed bumps so that people <br /> slow down. A significant decrease in speeding has been visible because of the signs <br /> recently placed by the City. <br /> <br />REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING JUNE 25, 2001 <br />MINUTES PAGE 12 <br />MINUTES Book No. 58 <br />Page No. 448 <br /> <br /> <br />
