Mayor Karth had received a question as to who owns that section of Mound Trail that was in Lino Lakes and located between the Leibel home, and Centerville Lake. This portion of the street is owned by Anoka County and the lake shore property is owned by the St. Paul. Water Department. The street has been reconstructed in back of the homes and the resid- ents had wondered who to go to for the vacation of the prior right -of -way. Mayor Karth presented the Planning and Zoning Board action in the absences of Mr. McLean. The Forest Glen: plat was first but since Mr. Menkveld was not present, action on this was delayed until he arrives.

Mr. Gotwald said trees are clean fill and if this is not disturbing a drainage area or filling a swamp then he could see no problems.
