Grand Mound tables sidewalk policy; council declines city-led replacement committee
Summary
The council tabled discussion of a new sidewalk policy pending attorney clarification and indicated it would not form a city-run sidewalk replacement committee; a request to rename Joyce Court to 'Sasquatch Circle' was also tabled and splash pad fence design discussion was referred to the clerk.
The Grand Mound City Council tabled a sidewalk policy discussion at its Feb. 12 meeting pending clarification from the city attorney. Resident Craig Kohl had asked the council or the city to form a committee to oversee sidewalk replacements; the minutes record the council decided the matter should be arranged by Mr. Kohl and other homeowners and that the city would not take on committee responsibilities.
A request to rename Joyce Court to 'Sasquatch Circle' was similarly tabled for future consideration; the minutes do not record the reason for tabling that request. The clerk was recorded as the contact for follow-up on the splash pad fence design, which the council discussed and deferred to vendor coordination.
The minutes do not provide further dates or explain the legal basis for sidewalk policy changes; they record only that the council sought attorney guidance before proceeding. The council also discussed budget items and noted public works will address road conditions in spring when L.L. Pelling is in town.
