1 <br />1 <br />Mr. Jaworski moved to authorize paying of the $333.00 dues for another year's membership <br />in the League of Minnesota Municipalities. Seconded by Mr. L'Allier. Carried <br />unanimously. <br />W. Cardinal stated that Mr. Hill and W. Husnik of the Planning & Zoning Board were <br />working on revising the building code and would bring it up at the next meeting if it <br />was completed. <br />W. Cardinal inquired of Mr. Locher whether he had gotten an answer on the plumbing <br />code. Mr. Locher stated that he had talked with Mr. West who feels that the Orangeburg <br />and transite pipe are not to be used permanently underground like cast iron. The <br />Clerk stated that she had asked Mr. West to be at the next meeting. Mr. Locher noted <br />that Shoreview has altered the State Plumbing Code in its adoption; we have several <br />items that should be added or changed also. Mr. West will be placed on the agenda <br />for the August 10th meeting at 9:00 p.m. <br />Mr. Jaworski stated that his only item to report on was under old business. <br />W. Rosengren moved to have Peltier Lake Drive surveyed in the area of the lake so <br />that we know whether the trees which have to be removed are on Village property or <br />not. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried unanimously. <br />W. Rosengren stated that they were ready to start with the oil; he will talk to Mr. <br />Gotwald on this. He had requested that the ad on weed cutting be held up, figuring that <br />we could cut them ourselves; however our mower is not in working condition, but Mr. <br />Rosengren thought a new one would be better than having someone else do the work. Mr. <br />L'Ailier suggested that we advertize for the cutting anyway, with a stipulation in <br />the ad that we can reject any or all bids. <br />Mr. Jaworski inquired about the list of roads to be taken over. Mr. Rosengren stated <br />that Mr. Gotwald would have this next time. <br />Mi. Bohjanen stated that he would have some discussion on other items on the agenda. <br />There had been no Community & Business Development Commission meeting. He thought that <br />after the next building meeting we would have a better idea of when the building will <br />be completed and when the celebration can be set. <br />Mr. Bohjanen asked whether the Clyde Rehbein matter had been started. Mr. Myhre stated <br />that he had been unable to contact Mr. West yet to get the complaint made out. <br />Denny Houle asked what the status of 80th between 21st and the County Line was. Mr. <br />Rosengren stated that it was ours west of the bridge but that the State had designated <br />it as a haul road east of the bridge to the line. Mr. Houle was disgusted about the <br />condition of the road end the fact that a certain particular hole had not been fixed. <br />W. Rosengren stated that they had dug out a lot of that sinkhole, but apparently <br />had not gotten all the soft stuff. It will be taken care of later. <br />W. L'Allier presented a draft resolution concerning proposed legislation to change <br />the law regarding tax exempt properties and the definition thereof. He read the major <br />portion of the draft resolution. Mr. L'Allier then moved to draft the following <br />resolution and send copies to our legislators and the county commissioners, to wit: <br />RESOLUTION ENDORSING AMENDMENT NO. 1 ON TAX — EXEMPT PROPERTY <br />WHEREAS, the Village of Lino Lakes is by law almost totally dependent on the property <br />tax to finance municipal services; and <br />WHEREAS, the Village Council is acutely aware of the burden which property taxes <br />impose on property owners, particularly those individuals living on fixed incomes; and <br />
