Minutes
1. Call to Order
The meeting was called to order at 7:00 p.m. by Arthur Zimmerman.
Members Present: Greg Dahlstrom, Charles Grawe, Dave McKenzie, Joe
Shaw, Arthur Zimmerman
Members Absent: Linda Dolan, Matt Saam
Consultants/Alternates Present: Brandon Anderson, Evan Acosta
Others Present: Perry Altendorfer
2. Approval of Agenda
MOTION: Mr. Grawe moved, second by Mr. McKenzie, to approve the
agenda as presented. Motion passed 5-0.
3. Audience Items
Perry Altendorfer expressed concerns over speeding traffic on Palomino Drive
in the area of the 35 mile per hour speed zone. He requested the speed limit
be reduced in that area. Mr. Anderson said that excessive speed has been a
concern on Palomino Drive in the past and the driver feedback signs have
been deployed there in the past and will be again in the future. Because
Palomino Drive is a Minnesota State Aid roadway, the State, not the City, sets
the speed limit. State studies are currently two years out for scheduling and
much of the time, such studies lead to speed limit increases, not decreases.
The City will continue to monitor speeds and deploy the driver feedback
signs.

details.
