Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Ricklefs stated that Springsted, Inc., has nothing to do with the specifications, but that they print the bonds and meet all the legal requirements.

The Clerk presented a request for a license for sewage system work for Interstate Plumbing and Heating of Anoka, represented by Mr. Harley Swedell. This was handed to the Attorney for his perusal of the bond and insurance. It was stated that the building Inspector should be reminded to tell the Plumbing Inspector of any new buildings requiring plumbing and sewage work. The Clerk read a letter from Milner W. Carley and Assoc., stating that the seal - coating work had been done and inspected; they felt that payment could now be made. Mr. L'Allier stated that he had received a couple of complaints on the work.

Mr. L'Allier presented a letter written on this matter by Arthur Hawkins who has done a considerable amount of research on Lake Amelia. He felt that the community needed a nature center.
