140 Council Meeting November 28, 1983 endangered their children. Chief Myhre recommended the ordinance be amended to include non -fired projectiles from being discharged within 300 to 500 feet of a resident. Mr. Marier moved to amend the City Code, Section 504, with Mr. Hawkins to write an amendment to disallow cross bows, pellet guns, BB guns, sling shots, wrist rockets to be discharged within 500 feet of an ad- jacent residential building or other buildings. Seconded by Mrs. Elsenpeter. Motion carried unanimously. Chief Myhre presented his report on the violations that have occured at Lake Drive and Main Street within the past years. Mayor Benson asked if this was an unusually large number of offenses and Chief Myhre said he was surprised at the number. He felt this was more than he expected. Mrs. Elsenpeter moved to direct Mr. Hawkins to make the City's concerns known to Anoka County and the City's desire to have a semiphore at that location. Seconded by Mr. Marier. Motion carried unanimously. ADMINISTRATIVE COST FOR LOCAL BONDING IMPROVEMENTS Mr. Schumacher explained there are administrative costs involved with all bond issues and this establishes a uniform policy that could be used in connection with these bond issues. This would allow the cost tobe taken from the bond fund on a schedule over the period of the bond issue. Mr. Marier felt this would be a double assessment on the residents and felt this needs clarification as to what type of bond issue this would be applied against. Mr. Schumacher noted that the Auditor had recommended that a policy be established in order to be consistent on these bond issues. Mr. Reinert felt this was more an accounting procedure rather than a direct cost - this would allow all costs involved with the project to be charged to that project. This would allow the City to know what these projects actually cost the City. Mr. Marier moved to table this item and asked for the administrative costs for the bond issues that have been issued over the past five years. Seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Motion carried unanimously. ATTORNEY'S REPORT Mr. Hawkins reported on Mr. Mikeworth's letter dealing with the 49 Club. Mr. Hawkins pointed out that the improvements that were allowed did not have a time limit imposed at the time of the granting. Mr. Hawkins felt that a time frame for the completion of the project should be set. Mrs. Elsenpeter moved to write to Mr. Nathe asking for a completion date for these improvements and inform him they must be completed by May 15, 1984. Seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Motion carreid unanimously.
