intravenous therapy variance for the rescue squad with funding of
approximately $5,950 coming from the rescue enterprise fund.

PROPOSAL TO BE SUBMITTED TO FALCON HEIGHTS/ROSEVILLE STEERING
COMMITTEE ON DIRECTION FOR COOPERATIVE OPPORTUNITIES
Baldwin explained there are ways to save money by cooperation,
however residents of both cities are concerned about maintaining
good services. strong neighborhoods, access to government, etc.
Since residents are asking many questions regarding merger he
felt is now time to ask the steering committee to explore forms
of "single city" government for presentation to the Roseville
Counc i 1.
A discussion ensued regarding whether or not it was appropriate
to go to the steering committee rather than directly to the
Roseville Council, the importance of moving forward before
momentumn is lost or desert the idea, the need for a "new city"
blue-print to have something tangible to present to the public
and establishment of a time line. The possibility of completing
the initial process by April of 1993 was considered.

APPROVAL OF RECREATION PROGRAM SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM AND
ESTABLSSHING A RECREATION SCHOLARSHIP TRUST FUND
Baldwin reviewed the program which started this summer with the
receipt of a $100 donation which has been depleted.
Gehrz stated that Parks and Recreation Commission feels there is
a need for this type of program which allows children to
participate in recreation activities who might otherwise be
unable to do so. The plan is to fund the program through
donations from local service organizations and individuals.
Ciernia suggested the city advance funds to continue through this
summer with the funds being replaced from the expected donations.

R-92-23 which carried unanimously.

to ensure continuation of the program through 1992 with the
expectation of replacing any funds used with anticipated
donations.
PROPOSED ORDINANCE 0-92-4 RELATING TO ABATEMENT OF BLIGHT
Hoyt explained that the proposed ordinance will enable
administrative removal of nuisances and blight on private
property when a property owner fails to do so after notification.
Most of these violations are presently handled by citation and
court proceedings which is costly and often does not remedy the
problem. After a brief discussion Gibson Talbot moved adoption
of Ordinance 0-92-4 which carried unanimously.
