202 May 13, 1974 in the lift station in the area now being pumped. There is a wet well in the system design that could be utilized. Mr. Zelinka asked how soon would it be necessary to start pumping in that area after the initial construction had started. Mr. Gotwald thought that possibly by August 1st or 15th. Mr. Backlin thought some consideration for the unit used for hauling should be thought about. He felt that the present tractor would not go through another winter. There was some discussion of this remaining a developers problem. Mr. Gotwald said these lines would be in a public street thus they become a municipal system. Mr. Jaworski said he could see no problem in allowing these lines to be installed. Mr. Rehbein said that he would put in writing that he will pay for any new homes that are built and hooked up to this system. He feels, however, that the present home should be treated the same as the ones in Country Lakes. There was discussion on the cost of hauling and the ways of'possible solution. Mr. Rehbein felt that if these lines were installed, it could bring pressure to bear for the installation of the interceptor. Mr. Locher thought if this system was not approved by the Metro Sewer Board, the City could get into a bind. Mr. Jaworski asked Mr. Rehbein if he would wait for an answer until after the meeting with the Metro Council scheduled for Thursday, May 16, 1974. Mr. Rehbein said that after waiting for two and one -half years, a few more days wouldn't make that much difference. He also said they would like to attend that meeting but will keep quite. Mayor Bohjanen had obtained application forms for the storage of flamable liquids from the Minneapolis Fire Department. He gave copies to the Councilmen. This matter was tabled for consideration at the next Council meeting. Mayor Bohjanen also proclaimed May 17 and 18 as Poppy Days in the City of Lino Lakes. The V.F.W. will be selling Poppies on those days. All people should buy and wear these Poppies in gratitude to men and women who have served their country.
