The Clerk mentioned that a complaint on horses from the riding stable had been received last week from Mrs. Wilharber; also, another complaint was received from Mrs. Al Santo on LaMotte Road who stated that her sod had been ruined by horses on November 18th. Mr. L'Allier asked Mr. Locher what could be done. Mr. Locher stated that we could tag the stable for violating the use ordinance if horses are being ridden for hire. Mr. Cardinal noted that the horses were out twice last week in his neighbors fields, but no complaint had been made. Mr. Bohjanen stated that they are definitely riding horses over there. Mr. L'Allier stated that he had asked Mr. Mybre to stop over. Mr. Cardinal noted that the Sheriff had been called about the horses being out, but they had done nothing about it. Also, most of the complaints have been in the daytime when we have no men on duty. Mr. L'Allier stated that after the first of the year one of the constables -would be available during the day time, and, he assumed, would spend most of the time in the car. *Mr. Cardinal moved to accept the minutes of the November 8th meeting as corrected. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried unanimously. The Clerk had received only one quotation on a tape recorder and P. A. system equipment. Copies of the quote will be made for members. The Clerk noted that rezoning fees owned by Lee C. Smith in the amount of `565.54 had not been paid after due notice, and that the Attorney had suggested the next step be to authorize him to collect the money by legal means. After discussion, Mr. Cardinal moved to have the Attorney take legal action to collect the fees owing from Mr. Lee C. Smith. Seconded by Mr. L'Allier. Carried unanimously. Mr. Cardinal reported that Vivian Rehbein had requested a variance on a parcel on Were Road which meets the frontage requirement; the fee has been paid, and . the Ng saw no problem with granting the variance.

Mr. Cardinal moved to grant a variance to Ord. No. 21A to Jack Canfield on the following described property: The North 233 feet of the West 100 feet of the Northeast 1/4 of the Southwest 1/4 of Section 27, Township 31, Range 22, Anoka County, Minnesota. subject to an easement over the North 50 feet taken for highway purposes. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried unanimously. Mr. Cardinal stated that the Floyd Miller roadway was discussed at the P&Z. The Clerk read the recommending letter from Mr. Gotwald which suggested that the owners provide the following before the Council accepts the roadway for partial maintenance: 1. widen.to at least 20 feet; 2. cover with,a minimum of 3 inches of gravel; 3. provide for adequate turnaround. Mr. Cardinal stated that Mr. Miller had told the P&Z that he would take care of these re- commendations. Floyd noted that it was getting late in the year and asked if this could be taken care of in the spring. Mr. L'Allier felt that this was acceptable, since Mr. Miller would need to provide a certificate that he had deposited in a bank an amount equal to 1 1/2 times the estimated cost of road repair. Mr. Gotwald noted. that the road was a deadend, was narrow with no turnaround, but that there were no drainage problems, the road would only need to be widened 6 feet. Mr. Gotwald estimated the coat to be $5 -600. Mr. Locher stated that Mr. Hiniker was to provide the deeds to the roadway, but that the turnaround presented a problem. Floyd stated that he had talked to Mr. Lundberg
