Starting this year the <br />clubhouse will be open for limited hours on the weekends. <br /> <br />Edwards stated the current plan is to have the clubhouse open on Saturdays and Sundays when there is <br />snow from around 10:00 to 2:00. <br /> <br />Seals stated she will ask Anna to put together some promotional items for the event. <br /> <br />Printup thanked the Park Commission for developing a plan to allow memorial pavers be installed at the <br />Dog Park. <br /> <br />Johnson noted there was a crackdown at the Lurton Dog Park and that people should be sure to purchase <br />their permit for the year. <br /> <br />CITY ADMINISTRATOR REPORT <br /> <br />Rief reported he meet with Police Chief Farniok and Adam Edwards to follow up on Hennepin County’s <br />projection of construction projects in the Orono area. In 2020 there will be a number of closures, <br />including a four to six-week closure of the Narrows Bridge. The improvement project at County Roads <br />15 and 19 will start at the beginning of the construction season and is projected to be done by July 4. <br />Work on the Tanager Bridge will start July 2nd. <br /> <br />In addition, Hennepin County is projecting to have CR44 open by December 1st of this year. The current <br />expectation is that CR101 will be open mid-November in Wayzata. Starting next year west of Mound, <br />there will be a one to two-month complete closure of CR15. A number of other projects are planned for <br />2021 and 2022, including a closure of Highway 12 west of Maple Plain. <br /> <br />Rief noted there will be a weight restriction on Fox Street and Orono Orchard to prevent any additional <br />truck traffic that will be attempting to bypass the bridge. In 2022 work will commence on Hendrick’s <br />Bridge and Tanager. <br /> <br />Edwards noted Tanager will not be a complete road closure and that they are planning on building a new <br />bridge in place so there will be lane shifts and some short closures. <br /> <br />CITY ATTORNEY REPORT <br /> <br />None <br /> <br />ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />Printup moved, Seals seconded, to adjourn the Orono City Council meeting at 8:02 p.m. VOTE: <br />Ayes 4, Nays 0. <br /> <br />ATTEST: <br /> <br /> <br />_____________________________________ _______________________________________ <br />Anna Carlson, City Clerk Dennis Walsh, Mayor
