236 <br />COUNCIL MEETING MARCH 14, 1988 <br />per year for fire protection. He noted that in 1987 there <br />was a car fire at the Fins Station. That fire cost the Fire <br />Department $800.00. A users fee could have covered that <br />cost. He also suggested that the cities charge a fire <br />inspection fee for review of plans for fire safety <br />standards. <br />Mrs. Elsenpeter noted that the joint powers agreement does <br />allow for the appointment of two Fire Commission Alternates. <br />The Council discussed whether or not they wanted two <br />alternates. <br />Mr. Bisel moved to approve two alternates to the Centennial <br />Fire District and retain Mrs. Elsenpeter as one alternate <br />and add Mr. Lance Olson as the second alternate. Mr. <br />Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. <br />OPEN MIKE <br />Mr. MacDonald, 6901 LaMotte Drive - Mr. MacDonald referenced <br />page seventeen of the February 22, 1988 Council Minutes <br />regarding Rice Creek Watershed District's (RCWD) intent to <br />clean out the ditch adjacent to the LaMotte Drive <br />subdivision. He asked for a clarification of this item. <br />Mr. Schumacher explained that area flooded about two years <br />ago and the City asked RCWD to preform a study to determine <br />the best option for rectifying the flooding situation. Mr. <br />Stahlberg explained that the study is complete and he read <br />the report to the audience. RCWD is proposing to improve <br />the ditch, straighten it out and bring it to the original <br />grade. Mr. MacDonald said it appears that they plan to do <br />what they originally promised the property owners in that <br />area. Mr. Stahlberg said RCWD will stake the proposed <br />improvement and Mr. MacDonald said this was already done and <br />the stakes appear to be in the proper place. <br />Judy Beseler, 149 Marcia - Ms. Beseler said that she has <br />heard rumors that municipal water and sanitary sewer may be <br />extended into her area soon. She noted that some of her <br />neighbors have already posted for sale signs on their <br />property or are trying to figure out how they can subdivide <br />their lots into additional building sights. She asked what <br />the situation is regarding the possibility of extending <br />utilities. <br />Mr. Stahlberg explained that a feasibility study has been <br />requested for the extension of services up 4th Avenue to the <br />PAGE 3 <br />1 <br />1 <br />1 <br />
