1~l~2 <br />tion the way Arona has been handled. every previous ,ye;ar, <br />Take Arona and Crawford, +n~re are holes all the vvay up. and <br />that has been going on for years; and I still don't understand <br />why, if you have a drainage problem between Crawford and Larpen- <br />teur, you can't cut a little deeper and let it run off. A <br />little lower on each side with a culvert underneath and let the <br />water run off. V~hy is this expense just for the business areas <br />done here? <br />5havor It is going to be in broportion to the benefits received. This <br />is in the manner of all public hearings, and we may be able to <br />cut dovm on this project, but it was hoped that vrhen it goes in, <br />we wouldn't have to do it over again. <br />Helin I would like to have Bonestroo tell me why we cannot put a <br />drainage ditch in that alley, and for such a small amount in <br />comr~arison. <br />Bonestroo A ditch in that alley wouldn't correct the problem further <br />back. <br />A P Kinney Normally, the water flows pretty well. In the Spring, when <br />1759 A~rona the ice collects on the streets, is when we have a major prob- <br />lem. I think a little more gutter would take care of the <br />drainage. VIY~y the storm sewer? <br />Shavor 1'~e have to tivork out some plan, and may come up with sore <br />better ideas. I think, hotivever, a storm sewer vrould do a much <br />better job. <br />Helin A ditch, like on Rug~-les? <br />Cannon St. Paul had trouble this vrinter. <br />Nilsen b'!'here you have good drainage, you don't have nearly the trouble <br /> with alternate freezing and thawing. <br />J. C. Hayes It seems like everyone has a different idea of v~rhat is involved. <br />1532 Craw- I think the problem is more general. It seems like it might be <br />ford brought up every two ,years, The trend of thought is that we are <br /> going to pay for this every year. I vrould probably benefit more <br /> than anyone by this storm sewer in the al ley and on Crawford. <br /> A lot has to do vritti the business district in back of us. It <br /> seems to me that this is a long-range problem and the trend of <br /> thought here is that, we are Quibbling because we don't want to <br /> spend money for s®mething we will be assessed for again. <br /> ~1l~,000, divided by 112 gives you ~fi125.00. It looks like there <br /> hasn't been any provision for the businesses on Larnenteur to <br /> pay for any o.f the cost. <br />Bonestroo They are in on this. Vde didn't go by the number of houses but <br />the total footage. <br />Hayes I am a little reluctant to have a storm sewer put in because I <br />ha.ven't heard. from the Council as to the houses on Crawford, <br />and possibly, one by one, making them business and not residen- <br />tial <br />
