All Engineering cost to be borne by the Metropolitan Council. The motion was seconded by Mr. McLean. and carri,edl unanimously. The Clerk was instructed to type and get this Resolution in the mail tomorrow, July 29, 1975. There was more discussion on the general aspects of the meeting. Mr. Tom Daniels said that the cost of the sewer project is to be borne by the Metropolitan Council. Someone questioned the addition of the last sentence. Mr. Jaworski said that the engineering cost are simply added in as part of the overall project. Mr. Rehbein asked if this line would include Centerville? Mayor Bohjanen said Centerville was represented at the meeting. There had been talk but no committment on that issue. The residents of Shenandoah asked if the Council would meet with the Metropolitan Council and the Council answered Yes. One resident asked why the Lino Lakes - Centerville plan could not be presented to the Metropolitan Council and was told this plan had been presented twice and has not been approved to this date. Mr. Locher was asked if the Metropolitan would vote on monies to be allocated at this time. Mr. Locher said, No. they must have a report and recommendation from the Engineer and the Metro Waste Control Commission and then a decision will be made. Mr. Jaworski had no report. A resident from Shenandoah asked if the research into the minutes covering the approval of the plat had been done. Mayor Bohjanen said that it had and that copies had been turned over to Mr. Locher. Mr. Locher said that he had not had time to study the reports. In the meantime, he had checked the proposed contract from the contract from the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission for payment for hauling sewage. There is several minor clerical correction necessary. He reported that the City had asked for a total of $26,000.00 per year, or up to that amount and the Commission had written the contract with the total figure of $19,000.00. Mr. Locher felt this and the fact that this contract only covers hauling from the Country Lakes area are the two major points for consideration. Mr. Jaworski felt that if sewage is to be hauled from the Shenandoah project, this should be a separate contract. Mr. McLean asked why the ceiling of $19,000.00? Mr. Locher said basically to limit development.
