1376 <br />L~ungren: About 75¢ a foot. <br />Dowdells Does this have to be voted on tonight? <br />Graham: Normal procedure would be to settle it tonight. Tt is not <br />necessary to vote on it tonight. The Council could take <br />the matter under advisement and continue the hearing. <br />Nilsens We have a tough problem. We recognize it as keen3.y as anybody. <br />Martin: You can't stop progress, but it is a bad time. <br />Dowdells It will always be a bad time. The pumps will go one by one, <br />Martins We have Sommers who built a new house and paid for a pump. <br />Sipess Were all the people on the street contacted? <br />Andersons I contacted several people and got a number of vigorous "Nos" <br />so I discussed it with Mr. Graham and asked how it could be <br />done. There were quite a few who wanted water but they had <br />reasonably good wells. We would, naturally, like to have <br />water now. We are hoping to build this Spring but we feel <br />it has reached a point where we will not be able to get loans <br />without water. <br />Betty Wouldn't it be more fair to have the petition go all the way <br />Sommers: down the street? <br />Nilsens I think when it does go all the way up Fairview, we will have <br />to consider going down Roselawn to Tatum and down Tatum to <br />Larpenteur for the loop. The added fire protection is worth <br />considering. If more property is developed, it will have to <br />be developed from Larpenteur Avenue and the water, sewer and <br />gas brought up from Lartienteur Avenue. <br />Sipess Have the planners recommended that the Larpenteur Avenue <br />property be rezoned commercial? What percentage of signers <br />do you have to have to rezone property? <br />Graham? 50~ of the people within a radius of 500'. <br />There was further discussion during which Nilsen read the <br />letters received from the Federal Housing Administration in <br />which they stated they would request proof of pure water <br />subply or refuse loans. Nilsen also read the data received <br />from the Planners on tax returns received from business <br />property, multiple dwellings and private residences, at the <br />end of which the following statements were mades <br />Mrs. Sommerss I am not against it. <br />Dowdells I am for it. <br />Andersons We need it. <br />Sipess I am not against progress. There are <br />four people concerned - Andersons, Sommers, Dowdell and myself. <br />
