153 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING JUNE 22, 1987 Dirt Fill, LaMotte Drive - Mr. Kluegel noted that the deadline for removing the fill from this lot expired June 15, 1987. Mr. Schumacher told the Council that he received a telephone call from the builder today asking what could be done to make the lot buildable. He informed the builder that the requirements are the same as stated the last time he attended the Council meeting. Mayor Benson asked if the City could excavate the lot and bill the contractor. Mr. Hawkins said that the City did not have the authority to excavate unless it was a public nuisance. He felt the best solution was to proceed enforcing a portion of the Nuisance Ordinance. This would mean criminal prosecution. After further discussion, Mr. Bohjanen moved to write a letter to the owner of the lot informing him that he must have the lot excavated by June 30, 1987. Mr. Marier seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT AND PARKS DEPARTMENT REPORT - DON VOLK 1. - • • 1- . .
