58 January 28, 1980 The developers agreement was considered. Mr. Jaworski felt this agreement is repetitive of existing ordinances, state law, or points that coule be made a part of the plat. He fet that a check list is the only needed item, with the exception of street signs. Mr. Schumacher presented copies of a shorter developers agreement which he felt would serve the same purpose and be less cumbersome to administrate. The general consensus of the Council was this would be much easier to work with. Mr. Gotwald requeted the Engineer and the Attorney get together and revise the Ordinance dealing with street specifiactions. This is to be put on the agenda. Mayor Gourley said he would line to have time to lbmk at this. Mr. Kulaszewicz moved to table this matter. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Motion declared passed. Compensation for City Board members was discussed. Mr. Schumacher had called several communities and found they do not compensate their board members. State Laws say that Park Board members may not be paid more than $100.00 per year - there is no specifications set forth for Planning and Zoning Board members. Mr. McLean felt any compensation should be for expenses - mileage - this to be a flat sum for the month, being perhaps contingent upon attendance at the meetings. After some discussion, Mayor Gourley suggested $100.00 per year, to be paid quarterly if 70% of all scheduled meetings are attended. Mr. McLean moved tha P &Z and Park Board be compensated for expenses $100.00 per year to be paid quarterly, and members to attend 70% of scheduled meetings. Seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. (Add Quarterly after scheduled,) Motion declared passed. The status of the comprehensive report on the special use permits and re- zonings was discussed. Mayor Gourley asked this be finalized by the last meeting in February. The Clerk felt this could be done, if no, she would report to the Council. Mr. Gotwald presented a report on Anoka County's plans for upgrading Highway #8. This is to include grading and drainage. This is prelininary plans and more will be presented at a later date. Mr. Gotwald askd for permission to contact the County on the matter and the Council agreed. Mr. Schumacher presented the financial statement for the month of December and explained the figures. This was thoroughly discussed by the Council. The next item on the agenda was the appointment to the Planning and Zoning Commission for a one year term.
