1 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING July 22, 1985 Page Two Extension of Lois Lane The next item of discussion was a request by Mr. Thomas J. Zangla to blacktop Lois Lane in front of his property (Lot 2, Block 2, Lakeview Woodlands). The City at this time is planning to blacktop Lois Lane just to the edge of his property. Mr. Zangla was present in the audience. Mr. Schumacher explained that in order to satisfy Mr. Zangla's request, that the adjacent property owners would need to be involved. Mr. Schumacher stated that he had spoken with the owner of the adjacent lots and felt that this owner would not object to improvements which would benefit his property. It was suggested to Mr. Zangla that the next step he should take in this endeavor is to petition this improvement with the signatures of the property owners involved. Mr. Zangla agreed to continue in that direction. Engineering Standards Mr. Davidson brought with him (per request by the Planning and Zoning Board) booklets and information with regard to engineering standards such as street standards, utilities, street lighting, culvert standards and public improvements. He explained that books were "generic" policies and procedures and that he wanted the Council to be aware that these items were requested and delivered and that the Council may wish to refer them to the Planning and Zoning Board. MOTION: Mr. Kulaszewicz moved and Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion to refer the engineering standards booklets to Planning and Zoning for review. Mr. Marier questioned who authorized Mr. Davidson's compiling this information and what was the cost of the work done on the booklets. Mr. Davidson answered that the Planning and Zoning requested the standards and that the cost is only for the printing and assembly and is minimal. Mr. Marier was concerned that the Planning and Zoning Board requested this action without Council authorization. Mr. Schumacher explained that for this same concern, the issue of Planning and Zoning's interest in reviewing the Comprehensive Plan was brought to the attention of the Council. On the vote, Mr. Marier voted no. Motion carried. MSA Five -Year Construction Program Mr. Davidson referred to his 7/22/85 memo to Council which reminds the Council that the City must submit a five -year con- struction program by August 15, 1985 and that a suggested . schedule has been given to each Councilmember for their review. Mr. Schumacher agreed, at Mr. Reinert's request, to have the City staff (particularly Mr. Schumacher and Mr. Volk, Public Works Director) review the MSA Five Year Construction Program, and make recommendations to the Council at their next regular meeting. 055
