1l~74 'radar?centien Is there anything more that can be done on Albert. 3onestroo I think the contractor should. fix that at his expense. The County said they would seed Robt, Hall's :boulevard if vre vrotzld put, in the black dirt and share it, They had intended to do it and were ready to seed it ov:-;r •nrhen the vratermain came t':rough, They said they vrou],d fix it if Tve nut in the black Wirt and shaped it? The black Wirt and the shaping is what costs the money. ~'~ratermain Bonestroo advised: The City of St. Paul refused to permit us to put in the services. They refused to jack the pipe for the services, but they insist that, they have to nut in the services.

I think vre are going to have to go along :'ri th them, The° e are 11~, conn_~~ctions. "'hey said +,hey have had very poor experience in jading services. I told them five had. had. very rood results.

':-e have a let+.,er z~ertaining to extending services in which they say they will repair the streets. ~:•raham I think ~*e should submifi a .resolutiion requesting them to provide u.s vsi th these services and stipulate our conditions. ^'e~e should send them a -nap requesting that they provide services for each and every lot shoti°~rn on the plan submitted to them and tha+ they repair the streets to our specifications vrhich v+rill include compaction. 3onestroo I do feel they have an oblination, as a utility, to provide us vrith adequate pressure. Graham Ho, their agreement to -~i--e us vrater eras on the expr. essed under- standing ±,hat they would not ~u:~rant~:e pressures. Ir vre vrant the ?vater~ vre can put in the mains. The al+„~.~rnative is for ~ a~ con Hei~*hts to g'o into the water' business, c=et a tank, etc, , but we don't have the money or the man-power.
