November 12, 1974 IIIMr. McLean asked about the dissolvement of the Police Study Commission. The Com- mission should be dissolved at Wednesday's special meeting when the full time personnel are selected. The leasing of a trailer such as was done last winter to be used as a warming house here at the Hall rink had been checked into. The rent is $100.00 p/m and the trailer would be leased for a three month period. Mr. McLean moved to rent the 8x25' trailer providing the people in the area will provide supervision on the same basis as last year. Seconded by Mr. Zelinka. Motion carried. Mr. Mclean will present this to the Park Board at their next meeting. 1 1 Mr. Zelinka had no report. Mr. Gotwald presented the Councilmen with copies of his analysis of Mr. Burandt's letter dealing with several proposals for the installation of sewers in Lino Lakes and Centerville. Mr. Burandt's report had indicated a cost of approximately $3,514,000.00 and with corrections and deletions, Mr. Gotwald arrived at a cost figure of $2,191,000.00. Mr.Gotwald explained how he had arrived at these figures. He suggested that a letter be written in con'unction with this report and sent to Mr. Boland asking that he have an engineer rom the Metro Sewer Board compare the two reports. Mr. Gotwald also felt hat a copy of Mr. Burandt's report should be sent to Mr. Springsted since some of the suggestions in the original memo do not follow prescribed procedures for municipalities. Mr. Springsted's comments should also be incorporated in the letter to Mr. Boland. The Clerk was instructed to draw up a rough draft of such a letter and have ready for editing at the next Council meeting. All reports indicate that the full flow gravity system is the most feasible and the least costly over a long period of years. Chief Myhre had completed his comparision of the bids for the Patrol Car and reported that the difference between the low and high bids is only $123.26. There are some exceptions on the bids but most are minor items and will not affect the bid. After discussion of the bids, Mr. Zelinka moved to accept the bid of Barnett Chrysler Plymouth in the amount of $4,953.58 with a 60 to 90 day delivery. Seconded by Mr. McLean. Motion carried. The Clerk showed a map that had been dropped off for possible purchase by the City. This map cost $39.50 and had been left pending Council approval. The Council felt that there is no need for such a map and Mr. McLean moved to return the map. Seconded by Mr. Zelinka. Motion carried. The Clerk had received an application forsewe, license by Mr. Ronnie Bowman of Stacy. He had not delivered his insurance or bond. Since he has a job pending, the Clerk asked that this application be approved contingent upon receipt of the insurance and bond and approval by the Attorney. Mr. Zelinka so moved. Seconded by Mr. McLean. Motion carried. c\ ,,t' Mr. Kurt Fahan of Shoreview appeared before the Council with a problem of vandalism on a 20 acre tree farm he owns just North of the Hall.
