''2 4/10/72 Roberts' operation in 60 or 90 days. 7. Asked what law Mr. Roberts had broken. Mr. Bohjanen asked Mr. Roberts if he had dropped 50 hogs since March 3rd; Mr. Roberts said Yes, that these were butcher hogs which he had sold. He had the sales slip in his pocket. John McLean informed Mrs. Swanson that before Ord. 56 was adopted, all land in Lino Lakes was either zoned as residential- agricultural or rezoned to commercial. Mr. Locher read Sect. 4 of Ord. #6 regarding hog farms in residential areas. He noted that the previous owner did not occupy the farm as a hog farm. He had checked the records and found that Roberts had purchased the farm under the old ordinance prior to the adoption or Ord. #56, as the deeds were finalized on May 21,1971. Mr. Locher stated that feeding of garbage to the hogs is out. Mr. Marier asked Mr. Roberts the following questions: I. You do not and will not feed garbage on this place in the future? 2. Will you conduct a farm operation according to the one of the previous owner? 3. Do you have adequate facilities to keep the hogs in? Mr. Roberts answered Yes to.all three questions. He also stated that he only has 3 sows left. Council was satisfied that Mr. Roberts should understand that we wish him to keep to general farming, that he neither cook nor feed any garbage to his hogs. Mr. Marier wished the matter to be put on the agenda for review in 60 days and that the County Health Dept. investigate the operation in the interim period. The Clerk reported receipt of the following items: 1. Approval of the Minnesota Dept. of Health on the water main system for the Shenandoah project. 2.

A revised form from the State Insurance Division on our police department. Mr. Bohjanen felt this should be filled out so we can qualify for State aid. Mr. Marier asked how long this matter layed dormant; Mr. Locher said that it had come out of 1971 Legislation. 9. A housing bulletin from Metro Council. 10. Requests for buried lines from Northwestern Bell and North Central Public Services; these were given to Mr. Gotwald to check over. II.
