Residents raise snow-removal and driveway boundary concerns; Main Street curb & gutter request repeated
Summary
Residents raised maintenance complaints after snow removal and a long-running request for curb and gutter on Main Street was renewed; a neighbor boundary dispute at 201 Chestnut prompted staff to advise permit and Board of Adjustments options.
Resident Ginny Poppen asked the council to address windrows of dirt and rock left at Blackhawk and School Street from snow piles and damage to grass along curbs caused by snow plows; the mayor said the city would look into the matter.
Jordan Muller reiterated a multi-year request to install curb and gutter on Main Street to Pioneer Road and suggested using property assessments to finance the work. Lonnie Wood reported that a neighbor poured a driveway on the property line at 201 Chestnut in 1991–1992 and said renters are tearing up his yard; council advised he could apply for a building permit and seek a fence agreement or pursue Board of Adjustments approval if the owner does not cooperate, and that staff would consult the city attorney about contacting the property owner, Wade Peterson.
