The roll. being called, the folloe~ring members of the Coun- cil were present: Louis ?~I. Melancon, Mayor; Roy P. Nadeau, Clerk; Carl. Spooner, Edward R. Loeffler, John M. Vitale, Trustees Minutes of the regular meeting and. special meetings held during the month of January were read and approved. Mr. Carley, the Village Engineer, was present and. the Clerk read a letter which was written by the said Village Engineer to the Village concerning the vacation of a road. formerly known as the New Canada De Soto Street cut-off. Mr. Carley then made a verbal report explaining that Mr. Lienry Schroeder, who has platted and is developing a small subdivision known as Schroeder~s Suburban Lots, has run into some difficulty because there is no available evidence of how or ~?hen the said New Carre.da De Soto Street cut-off was va- cated. From all indications that road was vacated more than fifty years ago but nowhere in the court house is it possible to find. a court order or other evidence of the vacation. Mr. Schroeder~e; re- quest to the Vi.l.lage Council is that the Council by its action vacate the road so that the Council's order can be inserted in the record as valid evidence of the vacation. Mr. Memmer, the village attorney, explained that the V111a.ge is not yet in a position to undertake any vacation proceedings because we do not .have an ordinance setting out the procedure for so doing. Upon motion by Nadeau, seconded by Loeffler, it was '!RESOLVED, that the matter be referred to the village attorney with instructions to contact the St. Paul Abstract and Title Guarantee Company informing them of the facts surrounding the entire matter.~~ Ayes - 5 Nays - 0 The resolution was adopted.
