February 28, 1983 5 Mrs. Elsenpeter asked, if this is to include postage and Mr. Marier said this is to include actual costs. There was discussion of the actual cost of copies with the Clerk explain- ing that Mr. Johnson, the intern, had done an analyziz when working here and had established the cost figure at 250 per copy. Mr. Marier disagreed with this cost figure. Mr. Kulaszewicz noted that such an analysis has just been completed at his firm and the cost figure for just the material is 60. Mrs. Elsenpeter felt it was the job of the Clerk to supply any person with anything they request. This is her job to supply the information. The motion carried unanimously. There will be further information as to the cost. Direction as to publishing the Minutes - this had been discussed and money had been allocated in the budget for this purpose. The Clerk asked for direction. The cost as proposed by the White Bear Press would be $120.00 per month. The City would supply copies of the approved minutes for this purpose. Mr. Reinert asked if this would be 'word for word' and Mr. Schumacher said that was how the estimated cost had been arrived at. Mr. Reinert suggested that perhaps a summary would be better. Mayor Benson felt that is what is being done by the papers at this time. Mr. Marier moved to direct Mr. Schumacher to call different newspapers for their procedures and the costs. Seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Motion carried unanimously. PUBLIC HEARING - BALDWIN MOBILE HOME PARK SEWER PROJECT This Public Hearing was opened at 7:40 P.M. Mr. Davidson explained this system is to serve the Mobile Home Court and is being requested by the owner of the Park. This hearing is to discuss the connection being installed at a greater depth in order that a wider area could be served by this connection to the lift station. Mr. Davidson explained that the cost for the extra depth will be borne by Mr. Howard at this time. How- ever, if within the ten year life of the bonds, other properties should connect to this line, then those properties would be assessed at the time they connect. Mr. Davidson pointed out thatthis is a Council initiated project and as such requires a 4/5's vote of the Council for approval. He also noted that Mr. Howard will provide 35% of the cost in the form oa a Letter of Credit for the protection of the citizens of the City. Mr. Davidson explained the cost for installing the line at a greater depth and went through the cost for each individual parcel owner, if and when they connect to the line. There were some questions from the audience which Mr. Davidson and Mr. Hawkins answered. There was a suggestion that this project was setting a precedence and Mayor Benson said each project would:'be considered on an individual basis and judged on its' own merit.
