There was discussion of the maintenance program at Sunrise and Mr. Schneider reported that the help that was asked for through the CETA program is not available due to the fact that personnel is not available.

Mr. Zelinka had presented the unfinished items and some of these will be handled at the special meeting on February 6, 1978. Mr. Zelinka asked the Clerk to remind Mrs. Anderson of the requested maps with the plats marked. Mr. Zelinka felt there should be a master plan for parks need for the eintore City and he asked the Council for input as to what is felt that is needed and where. He would like to get started on this soon. There had been a change in the makeup of the members of the Park Board. Mr. Zelinka moved to accept the resignation of Mrs. Arlene Averback and to approve the appointment of Mrs. Ina Liljedahl to fill the position. Seconded by Mr. McLean. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. McLean moved a letter of "Thanks" be written to Mrs. Averback. Seconded by Mr. Schneider. Motion carried unanimously. Mrs. Katie Soucup was in the audience and presented her problems with the animal control and the dog ordinance. Mrs. Soucup felt her dogs were will trained and should not be required to be chained. Mayor Karth told her the City cannot write a law to cover each individual dog owner, the law written covers all dogs in the City and all persons must obey the same law. Mr. Zelinka said the City had changed animal control people and had included some changes in the new contract. Persons whose dogs have been picked up must be notified within 24 hours as must the City. Also, they cannot enter private property to pick up a dog unless by Police order. Mr. Locher said he had obtained a map of the proposed park land in the Country Lakes area but now must write a legal for the transfer of title. He felt it would be necessary for some survey work to be done. Mr. McLean moved to authorize Mr. Gotwald to make the necessary survey. Seconded by Mr. Schneider. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. McLean moved to authorize Mr. Locher to process the necessary documenst in order to obtain title to this property. Seconded by Mr. Zelinka. Motion carried unanimously. On the matter of the requirement of having a full time building inspector by July 1, 1978, Mr. Locher had not had time to research as yet, but will have an answer soon. Mr. Gotwald reported the wiring should be done in the lift station on LaMotter Road this week. He will inform the office when completed and homes can be connected. The house owned by the St. Paul Water Department had been discussed with Mr. Gotwald. The Water Department will srite to the City Council concerning hooking into the sewer. Mrs. Pracher, of Centerville, had called Mr. Gotwald with a problem in street names. It seems that persons looking for Peltier Lake Drive in Lino Lakes cannot find the street because it becomes Mill Road when the street enters Centerville. There is also a problem in locating West Shadow Lake Drive which becomes 7th Avenue before the inter- section of Birch Street. These matters will be considered by the Planning and Zoning Board.
