Mr. Jack Menkveld appeared before the Council to discuss the streets in Forest Glenn. He said that two lots are sold and the persons are ready to start construction, he would like to post a bond for the graveling of this street only in order for these building permits to be issued. The Council questioned the completion date and Mr. Menkveld said this street should be completed in July. Mr. Meister had computed the costs. Mayor Gourley said this is a deviation from the ordinance in that the street must have the gravel base in before a bond will be accepted for the paving. Mr. McLean asked when the base could be in- stalled and Mr. Menkveld said as soon as the road restrictions are lifted. Mr. Jaworski noted that there are only State and County roads and these are 9 ton roads and there should be no problems hauling in gravel for the base. The consensus of the Council was that the existing policy of requiring the base to be in place before building permits are issued will stand. Once that is done then a bond must be posted for the paving of the Street. Mrs. Bernice Juleen representing the Lexington Park Lakeview area in the matter of the sewer proposal for that area.

Mr. Kluegel said the family had been living in a chicken coop in Shoreview and the Doctor had told the family they must get their children out of the building. Mr. DuFour noted that he is a carpenter and plans to have the home completed before winter. Mayor Gourley noted that he had a note from a Council member of Shoreview attesting to the problem. He also noted there are two items before them 1) a request for a variance for the transfer of title of the property and 2) a special use permit for the parking of the mobile home on the property.
