The Clerk will do this. 155 Mr. Locher presented the status of the Roninson problem with the collection of the SAC for the two new homes constructed. He read the agreement he had prepared. The Robinson's Attorney and objected to the date of Dec. 20, 1978 for the resolving of this problem; and objected to the escrow money bing paid to the MWCC. This Attorney asked that the date for solving this problem be extended to Dec. 30, 1979 and that the escrow money be returned to the Robinson's regardless of the outcome. The Robinson's felt the City should take Court action against the MWCC to delete this portion of the City from the requirement of paying the SAC. The Council could agree to the change of the date but not of returning the escrow money. If it is decided that SAC must be paid on these two homes, then that amount will have to be paid by the home owners and not this City. Mr. Locher will take this back and keep the City informed.

Mayor Karth questioned the status of 24th Avenue - is this a City street or is it a County Road? There was discussion on this matter with the general consensus being this a jointly owned street between Lino Lakes and Hugo. Mr. Zelinka suggested discussing this matter with Hugo at the special meeting scheduled for Sept. 6, 1978 and that perhaps a joint petition for the Commissioners of Anoka and Washington Counties could be formulated and forwarded for some action.
