Absent; Rothbauer. Mr. Marier was also present. Mr. Kelling moved to approve the minutes of the Special Meeting of March 13, 1974 as presented. Seconded by Mr. L'Allier. Notion carried. Mr. Shearen moved to approve the minutes of March 20, 1974 as presented. Seconded by Mr. Hill. Motion carried. Mr. Wayne Herr's proposed plat was discussed. Fir. Starr's and Mr. Gotwald's recommendations were read and discussed. Mr. Starr had recommended a possible site for a Park within the plat. Mr. Herr said he was aware of this requirement and was perfectly willing to give the land. If the Board so desired, he would also be willing to give the equivalent in cash. There was the general thought that with the Hall Park property so near, that the recommendation to accept cash would be more desirable. Mr. Herr said he was completely flexiable. Mr. Gotwald had marked the map for drainage along Rondeau Lake Road and had suggested catch basins. He had also marked the street for the change in grade on some portions. Mr. L'Allier questioned the use of metes and bounds for conveyance of title on these parcel of lands. Mr. Herr said the cost of survey to find the NorthEast corner is prohibitive. If he has to go to the expense of this survey, then he will redesign the layout making smaller lots. Mr. L'Allier felt that this should be surveyed properly in order to avoid future boundary problems. Mr. Nadeau felt that he would rather see smaller lots in the area and have the land surveyed properly. Mr. L'Allier said this decision should be left to the Engineer. He moved to recommend to the Council that the land be surveyed and platted. Seconded by Mr. Nadeau. There was discussion that this motion does not cover the situation in its entirety. Mr. L'Allier withdrew his motion. Mr. L'Allier moved to recommend to the Council that the plat be accepted with the following provisions; Mr. Herr conform to Planner's and Engineer's recommendations as to specifications for street grades, the Planning and Zoning would also recomm- end that the North East corner be found by a proper survey and the land be record- ed as a plat and the descriptions be by lot and block and not by metes and bounds. Seconded by Mr. Nadeau. :lotion carried with Mr. Shearen voting, No. He did not want to see the size of the lots reduced.
