She noted concerns about traffic, pollution (air <br />18 and water), noise pollution, five hundred dump trucks by her home every day, and being told that that <br />19 the opinion of Lino Lakes' residents doesn't matter. She noted that the Mayor of Columbus has told <br />20 her that there is an agreement on the project with other area mayors (Lino Lakes, Hugo, Forest Lake). <br />21 <br />22 Mayor Reinert clarified that he has signed no agreement but he has been doing the best lobbying he <br />23 can in communicating with the Columbus officials about resident concerns and urging them to stop <br />24 the project. He noted his understanding that the land isn't zoned for that use so the council could <br />25 reject the project. He also mentioned that the nearby Running Aces organization is much opposed to <br />26 the project. He also encouraged any council members with similar concerns to reach out to the City <br />27 of Columbus officials. <br />28 <br />29 SETTING THE AGENDA <br />30 <br />31 The agenda was approved as presented. <br />32 <br />33 SPECIAL PRESENTATION <br />34 <br />35 Mayor Reinert presented a Certificate of Recognition to Austin Eisch for attaining the rank of Eagle Scout. <br />36 <br />37 CONSENT AGENDA <br />38 <br />39 Council Member Maher moved to approve the Consent Agenda, Items 1 A through IF as presented. <br />40 Council Member Rafferty seconded the motion.
