Summary

Councilman Dewees reported that municipal sprinklers were activated with no issues, the vactor truck has been cleaning storm drains and Public Works completed an overlay on Roosevelt between Maple and Tilton; disc-golf baskets at Birch Grove were installed and site inspections remain before bleacher work begins.

Councilman Dewees told the council that "municipal sprinklers were turned on with no issues. The vactor truck has been out cleaning storm drains, there have been a few deficiencies with the storm system that will need repairs in the future." He also said Public Works completed an overlay for a failed patch on Roosevelt between Maple and Tilton Road and installed the remaining disc-golf baskets at Birch Grove; inspections are still needed before starting the bleachers project.

The report covered routine maintenance and upcoming small capital tasks; no formal motions or contract approvals related to these items were recorded at the May 5 work session. Council members and staff noted timelines for Memorial Day banner installation and other community-facing work, but did not take further formal action during the session.
