SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Commissioner Meg Weaver requested a discussion of needed to repair to seat walls along Egan Drive on the May 5, 2025 meeting agenda.
The commission reviewed the maintenance agreement with the state, discussed the need for a maintenance plan for Egan Dr, and discussed possible options to increase durability of the seat walls (such as making the seat tops removable). City Manager Nate Duval has been invited to discuss this topic with the commission.
These decorative concrete walls and planters were installed in 2016 as part of the Egan Drive Beautification Project (310-1150-58000), with final touch up work happening in 2017. The original contractor was Prosser-Dagg Construction Company LLC out of Palmer. Repairs were discussed by the Beautification Task Force in recent years, but scope and cost have not yet been explored.
