194 $6,720 which can be taken off the $19,400 assessment; these combined figures leave an amount of $7,680 to be levied for the building bond. The Metropolitan Sewer Assessment was discussed. Mr. Gotwald is at present trying to meet with Metro representatives to determine if our assessment is fair. If so, then the amount of $25,712.58 must be paid in 12 equal installments next year. This amount was included in the levy; however, if a different amount should result from Mr. Gotwald's discussions, a new budget meeting will be called to finalize the levy and mill rate. These are the tentative results on the levy, pending any change in the sewer levy; a total amount of $143,148 to be levied at a mill rate of 83 mills on an assessed valuation of some $1,720,000.

Mr. Cardinal moved to accept the minutes of the August 24th meeting as written. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Motion carried with Mr. Bohjanen abstaining because of his absence at that meeting. The Clerk read a notice of designation of a haul road for County Road No. 84 from Main Street to the South County Line. Copies of the proposed County park ordinance and other letters from Mr. Burman had already been received by the Council. The Clerk reported that $1,791 had been received in mobile home property taxes; municipal court fines in the amount of $8.00 had also been received. Two separate letters had been received from Burstein & Reidenberg who are handling the municipal court property: the first had enclosed a check in the amount of $194.70 for such sale, and the second stated that the books which were to have been sold for $5.00 could not be located and no disposition of them would be made. The Clerk stated that the first third of the money invested in treasury bills had matured on September 3; she had been advised to reinvest them since no bill had been received from Mattson at that time. However, a subsequent billing from Mattson in the amount of $11,602 had been received, and the Clerk inquired whether she should hold the bill or cash in the treasury bills immediately. Mr. Bohjanen moved that the check for Mattson be held until October 1st when the bills will mature. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried unanimously. A letter from the Metropolitan Sewer Board accompanying the bill for 1971 costs to be paid was received. The billing was read, showing the amount of $25,712.58 to be paid in 12 equal monthly installments next year. Mr. Gotwald stated that he had been unable to meet yet with the Sewer Board officials; however, he had checked the report of Black & Veetch, Engineer and had been unable to find anything on Lino Lakes in the book. Mr. Gotwald recommended that we table the matter until he is able to contact the officials and then meet with W. Carley and himself. Mr. L'Allier stated that we need an explanation where the cost comes from. Mr. L'Allier wished to go on record recommending that the Council request postponement of the $25,000 plus assessment for one year because there was not enough time to study the matter and 15 mills is too much to add onto our budget for one year for one assessment. W. L'Allier then moved to postpone the payment for one year
