SPRING PARK CITY HALL
(Work Session discussion times are approximate)
1. 5:30: 2024 Budget Discussion – Preliminary Levy
City Administrator Anderson provided a summary of the budget and advised where the proposed levy is
coming in based on the items he was including. He requested feedback and discussion from the Council on
what other projects they wanted to include. Anderson stated the proposed improvements he included were
the repairs to the City Hall building, stairway/entryway, and a mill and overlay of the City Hall driveway &
parking area. He also included the mill and overlay for Warren Avenue spanning from Shoreline to Kings
Road, new software for the meters, new meters, improvements to the Lake Street boat launch and staff
COLA increases.
2. 6:15 Miscellaneous
City Engineer Nielson brought forward two resident requests on West Arm Road West for landscape
improvements due to the road construction.
Mayor Rockvam provided feedback on both road projects and stated that it helped to have a project
manager onsite for Black Lake Road. It helped with resolving issues quickly and effectively. He said he
would highly recommend we have one onsite for the Sunset Drive project.
City Engineer Nielsen recommended we create a policy for projects moving forward so we know what the
guidelines are for any runoff or landscaping repairs to residents’ homes that are disrupted during
construction. The recommendation is to bring it back to what was there before the construction. A draft
policy will be put together and discussed at a future work session.
3. 6:30: Adjourn
Council Member Chase motioned, being seconded by Council Member Horton, to adjourn the meeting at 6:30pm. On vote being
taken, the motion was unanimously approved.
