Date September 14 , 1994
Re Employee Agreement - Cellular Phone Purchase
Recommendation
It is recommended to authorize the following two cellular phone
agreements between the City and Joy Pellicci, Recreation Programmer
and Kevin Mincke, Police Officer.
Background
The City of Farmington purchases its cellular phones under the
State of Minnesota bid with U.S. West Cellular. As a part of that
bid, employees of the local government units are entitled to the
same bid prices as their employer.
The City Council at their December 6, 1993 meeting approved as to
form an agreement between the City and employee purchasing the
cellular phone which protects the City from any financial
liability.
Again, it is recommended to approve the agreements between Joy
Pellicci and Kevin Mincke.

CITY OF FARMINGTON:
THIS WEEK-END I LOST THE LIVE OF MY HUNTING DOG, TREVER. I LOST HIM
ON 195TH STREET , NEAR MY HOUSE IN FAIR HILLS.
195TH STREET HAS BEEN A CONCERN OF MINE SINCE I MOVED HERE IN 1988.
IT WAS FIRST A GRAVEL ROAD AND SPEEDS WERE TOO FAST THEN, BUT
SINCE BEING BLACKTOPPED THE SPEEDS HAVE INCREASED AND BECOME
MORE FREQUENT. MY CONCERNS ARE: NEAR BY AKIN ELEMENTARY
SCHOOL, THE DAY CARE 2 HOUSES DOWN FROM MINE, THE BASEBALL AND
SOFTBALL LITTLE LEAGUES THAT PLAY DURING THE SUMMER, AND MANY
FAMILIES AND PETS THAT USE THE ROAD. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A SPEED
LIMIT OF 40 MILES AN HOUR OR LESS POSTED AND ENFORCED AS WELL AS A
CHILDREN AT PLAY SIGN SO PEOPLE ARE MORE AWARE OF THE RESIDENTS
AND THEIR FAMILIES IN THIS AREA.
I WOULD APPRECIATE SOME FORM OF A RESPONSE. I DO PLAN TO SUPPORT
MY WIFE IN PETITIONING, AS WELL AS OTHERS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD.
HANK-YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

CITY OF FARMINGTON AND WHOM ELSE IT MAY CONCERN:
TODAY I LOST THE LIFE OF MY 6 MONTH OLD PUPPY, TREVER. IT HAS
PROMPTED ME TO WRITE THE CITY OVER AN ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN IN MY
THOUGHTS, AS WELL AS MANY OTHERS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD, FOR SOME
TIME. THE ISSUE LTHAT OF THE SPEED LIMIT 195TH STREET. I LIVE IN
FAIR HILLS AND MY BACKYARD GOES ONTO THE ROAD. THERE IS AN
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL UP THE ROAD AS WELL AS A DAY CARE ON THIS SIDE.
MANY CHILDREN AND PETS IN THIS AREA PLAY , RIDE BIKES AND WALK
OUTSIDE THEIR HOMES NEAR AND ON THE ROAD . I HAVE BEEN
CONCERNED THAT THEIR IS NOT A POSTED SPEED LIMIT ON THIS ROAD, AND
IF THEIR IS ONE OF 30 , WHICH IS USUALLY THE LIMIT IN RESIDENTIAL AREAS,
IT IS DEFINITELY NOT ENFORCED. I WOULD ASK THAT A SIGN BE POSTED OF
THE SPEED LIMIT , A SIGN SUCH AS CHILDREN AT PLAY, AND THAT A SPEED
LIMIT OF 30 BE IMPOSED. AS IT IS NOW, MOST PEOPLE GO 50 MILES AN
HOUR OR MORE ON THIS ROAD AND DONT TAKE THE PRECAUTIONS OF IT
BEING A RESIDENTIAL AREA. IT WAS MINE AND MY PUPPIES FAULT THAT HE
RAN INTO THE ROAD, BUT IF THE PERSON WAS GOING SLOWER AND WAS A
LITTLE MORE CAUTIOUS, THE END RESULT MAY HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT.
THANK-YOU FOR YOUR TIME. I DO PLAN TO PURSUE A PETITION AS WELL.
I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING YOUR RESPONSE.
