June 14, 1976 Mr. Schneider asked this list be more specific as to when the jobs will be done and IIIwhen the bills will be presented for payment. Mr. Karth said they will finalize the list this weekend and dates will be inserted. This will be presented at the last meeting in June for approval. There was general discussion as to what is to be done in what areas and which street shouFdbe done this year. Mr. Karth reported on a problem with the section of 4th Avenue from Elm Street North to the Freeway where the Street dead ends. He had received complaints of dumping, which can be seen from the Freeway, and the teen age parties being held back in the area. Since there are no homes located on that stretch of Street, Mr. Karth asked the Council to consider blocking off that stretch of the Street until such time as there is need for the Street to be opened. It was suggested that all property owners be contacted for their approval of this act- ion in writing and, if obtained, to bury poles across the entry. Mr. Karth so moved. Seconded by Mr. McLean. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Karth reported the Ford Squad Car had developed a hole in the oil filter and the engine had frozen. To do the minimum of repairs on this car will cost about $325.00; to do a complete overhaul will cost approximately $545.00. Mr. McLean asked how many miles is usually on a squad car before it is disposed of IIIand Chicbf Myhre said it varies with each car. He felt this car would be retained until 1977 and the least amount of cost for the repairs would be sufficient. Mr. Karth moved to approve the minimum repairs and stay as close to the estimate as possible. Seconded by Mr. Schneider. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Karth reported the Lino Athletic Association has asked he request the use of the garage for a dance and for a permit to serve beer and set ups in conjunction with the fund raising of that orginazation. This has been held at the Aragon Ballroom in the past. Since there is an on -sale liquor license at that location, it is no longer possible to hold the dance there. Mayor Bohjanen felt the matter of set ups has been duscouraged in the past. It will have to be checked with the Attorney. Mr. Karth said they would like to know by the end of June since the dance would be held in August and they need time for ticket sales. Mr. McLean had no report. Mr. Schneider reported on his meeting at the MMTC. There will be a forthcoming report from Mr. Robin. It is felt that it will be sometime next summer before the trans- ferring of the adult offenders will begin. Mr. Schneider said the Citizens Committee is being reactivated in order for the community input to be considered in the formation of this change in the status of this facility. He will have more information on this at a later date. IIIMr. Schneider said he had been contacted with concern about the amount of monies being spent in the Parks and for what. Mr. Volk will attend the next Park Board meeting and this matter will be discussed. The youth from the school started today. There aresix people from the Centennial School and they worked at Sunrise Park today.
