Robyn, Mrs. Clifton Brisson, and Mrs. Delbert Sawyer. Although the ordinance sets forth an annual meeting, Mr. Hawkins felt that he would like to see monthly meetings, which W. L'Allier recommended that they do. W. L'Allier moved to accept Mr. Hawkins' resignation from the Park Board effective Dec. 31st, and authorize a letter be sent to him in appreciation of his service. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried unanimously. W. Bohjanen moved, to approve the appointments just made on the Commission of Enviromental Quality. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Letters of the appointment will be sent. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Locher stated that he has the deed from the County that we have been wait- ing for on the road running East and West of Baldwin Lake Road in Section 31, dated November 23, 1971 and delivered to him a couple of days later. This will have to be approved by the Council and the Clerk must accept this in writing. Mr. L'Allier mentioned that this was the road the County denied owning or having title to, but now are deeding over. He assumed that we would accept the road for partial maintenance. Mr. Bohjanen agreed that was what was said the last time. Mr. Rosengren wondered if we take it over under these conditions will it be for partial maintenance. W. Locher stated that we do not have to improve it unless we wish, and if there are specific large scale improvements they are to be paid by special assessments. He showed the road on a map. The limits of the road were discussed. Mr. Locher stated that the St. Paul Water Works Dept. did not lease the road with the park property. Mr. L'Allier suggested a temporary cul-de -sac. Mr. Locher stated that the County also conveyed rights they didn't have which were in the original deed from Hilton's in 1954. Mr. Jaworski asked if this was considered a turnback and was told no. Mr. Locher stated that anybody who wished to challenge ownership of the road would have to go to court. He asked if we hadn't maintained the roadway somewhat in the past. Mr. Rosengren stated that the maintenance was very partial; he didn ;t know if we hauled in any material, but we had done some snowplowing. Mr. Locher said this would do it. He noted that the deed was on a 'county form. Mr. L'Allier reiterated that we had gone on record saying that we would accept the deeds. Mr. Bohjanen moved to accept the deed from the County for a street to be given partial maintenance having the following legal description. An easement for roadway purposes, described as follows, to -wit: A strip of land for roadway purposes sixty (60) feet in width, the center line of which is described as follows: Beginning at a point six hundred seventy (670) feet East and two thousand three hundred seventy -eight and 08 /100 (2378.08) feet North of the Southwest corner of Section Thirty -One (31), Township Thirty -one (31), Range Twenty -two (22), Anoka County, Minnesota; thence East parallel with the South line of said Section one thousand four hundred fifty (1450) feet more or less to the West line of the St. Paul Water Works right -of -way; and the Village of Lino Lakes shall have the right to use and remove all earth and other materials lying within the parcel of land hereby conveyed and the right to construct and maintain, upon the lands adjoining the parcel hereby conveyed, such snowfences as it may from time to time deem necessary. and to authorize the Clerk to sign the acceptance of the deed. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried unanimously. Mr. Locher stated that he assumed that he could now file these deeds; he will get the form and the legal description to the Clerk.
