<br />BILLS <br /> <br />O. CITIZEN COMMENTS <br /> <br />P. COUNCIL COMMENTS <br />Mr. Glickert agreed with Mr. Docket that University City has an excellent Fire Department and <br />was glad that he is well. He also noted that he has received calls all favorable for the good job <br />of snow removal accomplished by the City workers. Mr. Glickert asked how the City stands on <br />salt supply. Mr. Walker stated that the City will be able to continue to serve their residents. <br /> <br />Mr. Crow asked the City Manager to get back to him with the April 25 Council meeting if it <br />conflicts with Passover or not. Next he would like to know how the calendar issue was <br />resolved. Mr. Crow also asked where the City is in regard to the Park Grant funds and when it <br />will be addressed. <br /> <br />Mayor Welsch noted the email sent to Council on paperwork concerning Delmar Blvd. The St. <br />Louis County of Public Works is recommending that the County give the City of University City, <br />Delmar Blvd. running from Big Bend Blvd to the eastern City Limits. Mayor said If this would <br />happen University City would be responsible for all of the maintenance and upkeep of this <br />heavily traveled road. The City Manager had staff write a letter to the County saying that we <br />would prefer not to do this. Staff has also developed a detail on the cost that the City will incur <br />in taking this over, as it has not been maintained well. Mayor Welsch also asked the City <br />Manager to ask the City Attorney to see if the City has any options in this case. She personally <br />is calling each member of the County Council to convey her thoughts on this issue. Ms. Welsch <br />suggested that other members of the City Council might do the same. <br /> <br />Mr. Sharpe asked if the City had any choice in the matter and if so, he suggested to go in mass <br />to the County Council meeting. <br /> <br />Mayor Welsch noted the explanation given to the City is that the County no longer considers <br />this a arterial road but rather as a road servicing University City businesses. <br /> <br />Mr. Sharpe moved to adjourn at 8:47 p.m. and the motion carried unanimously. <br /> <br />Joyce Pumm, <br />City Clerk <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 14 <br /> <br />
