Hanson, City Administrator <br />DATE: August 23, 2002 <br />RE: Request Pipeline Setback Ordinance <br />MAYOR <br />Michael 1. Fahey <br />COUNCIL <br />Beverly Sealze <br />Jim LaValle <br />Matt Anderson <br />Riek Montour <br />ADMINIS'UA7'OR <br />Joel IL. Manson <br />The residents in the area of the Palmen /Turnquist property have requested the City to consider <br />enacting a pipeline setback ordinance that is more restrictive than current State Statute (no buildings <br />or structures within the easement). Attached is some material they have provided to us regarding this <br />topic. I have also forwarded it to the City Attorney so that he can comment on the legal <br />considerations associated with this issue. It is my understanding that Charles Kenow from the MN <br />Department of Pipeline Safety may also be present to comment on this topic. <br />If the Council desires to investigate this option further, staff would suggest a more detailed review of <br />pipeline locations within the City. Maps of pipeline locations within Little Canada will be available <br />at Wednesday's meeting. <br />Based on the information contained in the agenda topic as well as the comments made at <br />Wednesday's meeting, staff will be looking for direction from the Council. <br />
