Open Forum
.
Engineer Mann - presented a request from the school district regarding watering
fields and the Water Board concurred with the school district's proposal.
b) Member Jensen - Noticed Parks & Recreation staff using hydrant to water at the
Spruce Street bridge without a water meter. He is concerned about the public's
perception and the DNR requirement that all water used be accounted for. The
consensus of the Board was that the Director of Public Works/City Engineer
should enforce the requirement that all water used should be metered and see that a
meter is available for use.
c) There was a brief discussion about wells being grandfathered and at what point the
grandfathering is no longer valid. Wells permitted through Dakota County are
listed in the Wellhead Protection Plan.
d) Members Krueger and Maguire requested that the lowest level of the water in the
tower be emailed to them daily for the next week.
