Pr- 12/13/71 143 1 1 1 after the meeting we had in July. An agreement will be drafted that 1 1/2 times will be paid at the issuance, whether or not if is spread out. They are due now if built on, but will be spread out for the lots that aren't going to be built upon over a period of time. If the title is transferred, then 1 1/2 times is due or the balance. Don maintained that they are not due until certified to the. County. Mr. L'Allier stated that we want to protect our interest by withholding 1 1/2 times the assessments; we won't release the title until the assessments are certified, which won't be done until we get the letter from George. Mr. Locher noted that after paying the extra 50 %, sometime in the future after 2/3 of the lots are sold that the 1/3 lots left will be free and clear of assessments; this assures the Village that they will have money with which to pay the interest and to retire the bonds too. He didn't think we would have a problem working it out with the mortgage companies. Anna Bohjanen asked how do we establish a water hookup fee or won't you do that until a later date and go back to Chomonix. Mr. Gotwald explaines that the problem we have now is that we have a well, but we don't have the pump - house, motor, pump or electronic controls, which won't be all completed until March probably. In the meantime they're getting an okay from the State Board of Health to drill in a 6" temporary well, so they'll be using their own well. We will turn on the public system by the time we have come up with an ordinance which will deal with the actual costs, etc. Mr. Gotwald made several recommendations that might be included in such a utilities ordinance, as well as to recommend that the Plumbing Inspector see that any of the hookups have a spacer put in now for use later with a meter. Mr. Cardinal moved to authorize the Engineer and the Attorney to rough out a utilities ordinance and to get copies back to the Council as soon as possi- ble, this along with some rates from other communities, types of meters used, etc. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried unanimously. The Clerk stated. that Mr. John A. Quinlan, new owner of the Aragon Ballroom, had applied for the following licenses: cigarette for December only, dance for Saturday dances, benefits and other bookings; on and off sale 3.2 beer. She had asked Mr. Myhre to check him out for approval of the setup license. Mr. Myhre had checked as far as possible without a birth date. Mr. Quinlan gave his birthdate as 7 September 1946. The Clerk noted that Mr. Quinlan had not paid his fees. After discussion, Mr. Cardinal moved to approve the licenses requested by Mr. Quinlan effective December llth. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried unanimously. Mr. Quinlan asked for information on when the payments were due and when the licenses expired. He plans to make an apartment in the basement of the Ballroom. Mrs. Swanson asked if the property was zoned commercial; Mr. L'Allier assumed it was but didn't know for sure. The Attorney and the Clerk both felt that it was, but that there was no ordinance for the rezoning. Mrs. Swanson felt the Council should check on this first. Glenn Rehbein asked how we were doing on the final plat of Shenandoah. The Clerk had received nothing from the County. Mr. Locher had the title opinion; he had searched the abstract and found that Glenn's attorney must clear the life estate of Maria Lehman before clear title can be given. Mr. Locher noted the objections in the Engineer's letter of Nov. 15th. The question of the access directly onto County Road 10 on lots 2,3, & 4 had been worked out by a backup portion on each one of those lots. George stated that the objec- tion on the 50' easement came from the County Hwy Engineer's office and not the Surveyor's office, so we must see if the Surveyor will accept the 50'. Mr. Locher stated he could advise.the Council that the plat could be adopted upon the approval of the County Surveyor and the signing of the hardshells
