197 December 14, 1978 Mr. Gotwald presented a suggestion to the Board that an overall drainage study be done of this area in order to better serve the developers and persons buying land in the area. It was generally greed this was a good idea. Mr. McLean asked about establishing a water level to be maintained on the lakes. Mr. Goyer said nothing had been done in that area but he agreed this should be done. He will contact Mr. McLean on this matter. The general idea is to set a bench mark, delete the permits for the taking of water from the lakes and hold the water level within inches of the established bench mark. It was generally agreed that some sort of work shop between this Council and the Watershed Board should be established to talk about mutual problems. Mr. Jeff Joyer presented an itemized list of additional costs that were incurred by his firm in the development of some lands. He attributed these costs to delays in actions on the part of the Rice Creek Watershed Board, but the Board vehemently denited this. The Board felt that those delays are caused by Enigneers who do not know and do not take the time to find out what is required by teh Board, thus incurring delays. Mrs. Dee Knaak, State Senator, was also present, She said ti was good to meet with teh Council and the Board. She said cummunications are necessary and this sort of meetins is the best way of communicating. Mayor Karth thanked all for attending and adjourned the meeting at 9:45 P.M.
