SEPTEMBER 8, 1975 Control and the Lino Lakes staff recommend the gravity flow system but the force main system is the one that will be recommended to the Environmental and Transportation Commission on Wednesday, September 10, 1975. Mr. Gotwald had some recommendations for Council procedure. He will draw up a statement and mark a map to substantiate his recommendations for the Council to present at the meeting on Tuesday, September 9, 1975. He said that the recommendation from the Metropolitan Council staff fails to consider any area West of Rice Lake - the Lakeview Area and the Youth Center. Their reasoning and cost estimates are not realistic. They also fail to include the additional cost of serving Centerville and the cost in 1985 to reconstruct the trunk and lateral lines to fit with the gravity system proposed for that time slot. Mr. Gotwald also advised against amending the Comprehensive Land Use Plan or the Comprehensive Sewer Plan for the City. He said since this is a temporary solution to the problem, that to amend the plans now would most surely mean that in the coming years they would have to be changed again when the permanent system is installed. Mr. Gotwald felt there should be some contractual agreement as to the time slot for the construction of this permanent system. There was no old business. Under new business, Mayor Bohjanen requested permission to name a Bi- Centennial Committee Chairperson to work on this project in the coming year. He would appoint Mrs. Betty Livingston as Chairperson and Mrs. Anne Bohjanen as Co- Chairperson. Mr. McLean so moved. Seconded by Mr. Zelinka. Motion carried. Mr. McLean had inspected the house used a living quarters located at Sunrise Park and since this building has no central heat, no water or plumbing, some consideration for either upgrading this home or making some other arrangements are necessary before winter this year. He said the walls have cracks and he felt it would almost be an impossibility to heat in cold weather. There is a gas line at the warming house that could be extended, water that could be extended from the warming house to the home and the installation of a septic system. Mr. Jaworski said Mrs. Billik would resent the taking of her wood burning stove. Mr. McLean said that this problem should be dealt with before cold weather. It was suggested that Mr. Amundsen take a look at the building and present some recommendations for Council consideration. Mr. Jaworski moved to allow the Drifter's Snowmobile Club to use the snow fence and posts at their races to be held on September 21, 1975. Seconded by Mr. McLean. Motion carried. Mr. Jaworski also asked if the Police Contract from the Unio had been delivered and was told, Yes. Mr. Jaworski asked why, since the Clerk's Office and the Mayor knew of this contract one week prior to this day, none of the Council Members had been notified of this contract? The clerk was asked to make copies for all Council Members, Personnel Com- mission members and Chief Myhre. 205
