COUNCIL MEETING MARCH 26, 1990 hearings at City Hall some time in May and they will deliver their final decision in June. The Quick Take Notice for Second Avenue is also proceeding through the regular channels. Roger Nelson Lawsuit - Mr. Hawkins gave a brief background on this matter. Rice Creek Watershed District is requiring that additional areas for drainage be found to replace the areas that on Mr. Nelson's lots. The additional area has been found through the tax forfeit procedure. This should be settled soon and the City will receive the money for the sale of the lots to Mr. Nelson. Lino Lakes Community Committee - Mr. Hawkins gave a brief background on this matter noting that after this Committee had sued the City and was admonished for the harassing the City Council, the judge had ordered that the attorney for the committee pay damages to the City in the amount of $500.00. The attorney was to pay this amount within 90 days. The attorney has filed bankruptcy and Mr. Hawkins told the Council that he would ask the judge to order that the attorney be required to perform comparable community service for Lino Lakes. This matter will be before the judge later this week. Council Member Neal said he has heard that some of the committee members did not pay their share of the costs last fall. Their attorney was asking that the committee members pay the fee directly to the City. Mr. Hawkins said that the court action clearly deals with the attorney, not with any assets. Council Member Neal asked what would happen if the attorney did not appear in court. Mr. Hawkins said a bench warrant would be issued for her arrest. However, Mr. Hawkins felt that since the attorney is an officer of the court, she would attend the hearing. Mayor Bisel said he would like to see the issue resolved. He noted that it is unfortunate that it has dragged out this long. ENGINEER'S REPORT Comprehensive Sewer Plan Amendment, Darrell Schneider - Mr. Schneider explained that the Comprehensive Sewer Plan Amendment has been approved by Metropolitan Council. This will be further discussed under Agenda Item 12B. Resolution No. 12 - 90, Ordering Feasibility Report for PineRidge, Dan Boxrud - Mr. Boxrud noted that the Council set a public hearing earlier in this meeting for PineRidge.
