Public Works Week Proclamation t • CITY OF ROSEMOUNT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY FOR ACTION CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: May 17, 1994 AGENDA ITEM: Public Works Week Proclamation AGENDA SECTION: Department Heads Report PREPARED BY: Bud Osmundson AGENDA NO. City Engineer/Assistant Public Works Director �TE� � t! ATTACHMENTS: Proclamation, City Data Sheet, APPROVED BY: Metric Conversion Chart This years "National Public Works Week" is May 15 through May 21 . The Rosemount Public Works Department works very hard in providing City residents first rate potable water, sanitary sewer, storm water drainage and street systems. The maintenance personnel are well trained and provide efficient and timely maintenance of all our City systems. We all tend to take these services for granted. We need to appreciate the fact that without an effective City water system, fire protection would be deficient; without our sanitary sewer system our environment would be severely harmed; without an efficient storm drain and street system and proper maintenance of these systems our lives would be drastically different. The Citys' Public Works personnel should all be recognized for working hard to provide public services to the people of Rosemount. We ask that the Mayor proclaim the week of May 15 through May 21 , 1994 as "National Public Works Week". In 1994 the Public Works area is or is going to cope with two major areas of change. First is the continued fast paced growth of the City. The services the City provides to its citizens keep expanding as new requests are made and there are more and more streets and utilities to maintain. The second major change which we all will be coping with is the conversion to the metric system. The Federal and State Governments are mandating that all plans and specifications for Federal and State aided project let (bid) after September 30, 1996 be prepared in metric units. That means that street widths, speed Iimits, weights, volumes, etc. will be reported in metric instead of "English" units. We will follow MnDOT's lead on providing dual units in reports, plans and specifications beginning July 1, 1994. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Mayor to proclaim May , 1994 through May , 1994 "National Public Works Week".
