106 January 27, 1975 Nelson had presented a plan for payment of money in lieu of land. This plan proposes that a payment of $220.00 be made for each lot sold at the time of the sale until the sum of $2,200.00 has been paid. This money will be deposited in the Park Fund to be used for improvements or acquisition of park lands. Mr. Marier so moved. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Nelson asked if any of the Council members will be able to attend the hearing on Thursday of this week. Mayor Bohjanen said he would try. Mr. Starr will be contacted and asked to attend. Mr.Jaworski moved to close the hearing at 8:25 P.M. Seconded by Mr. Zelinka. Motion carried unanimously. The Clerk read the letter received from the First State Bank of White Bear Lake stating that this bank has agreed to hold $2,160.00 in escrow in the name of Charles F. and Maxine E.Prokop pending completion of a street within the City of Lino Lakes. This money will be re- leased only after the street has been completed, inspected and passed by the City Engineer, and a written release from the City Clerk to the Bank directing them to release the funds. Mr. Prokop presented the Council with a copy of the Contract he has with Mr. Schifsky for thebuilding of the street showing the amount of $2,160.00 as the amount necessary to complete the work contracted for. Mr. Marier noted that the City Ordinance requires 12 of the amount to be posted. Mr. Locher agreed with this but said that a variance could be granted to this requirement in view of the fact that Mr. Prokop has a contract with a stated amount. After some discussion, Mr. Jaworski moved to grant a variance to Ordinance #22 and allow the posting of the amount due on the contract. Seconded by Mr. McLean. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Prokop asked if he could obtain his building permit and was told that he could. The Clerk read the figures she had computed involving the costs for hauling sewage that had been incurred by the City in 1974. They are: $2,000.p0; depreciation on truck and tanker - $1,100.00; payroll - $4,278.66; repairs; - $3,000.00; percentage of Mr. Backlin's salary - $1,344.00; M.S.B. charges - $755.88; Clerical charges @ 3% of total - $374.35; total of $12,852.89. The city hauled 722/5,000 gallon loads; reimbursement @$12.50 per load = $9,025.00. This incurrs a loss of $3,827.00 for the year 1974 or $5.30 per load. The Council instructed the Clerk to put these figures in order and include in a cover letter with the 1973 contract with the Metro Sewer Board. This is to be sent to the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission to be used in negotiating the renewal of this contract.
