2 Mr. Gotwald explained the legal proceedings which commence before bonds are sold, noting again that the bonds will not sell if they don't look good. Mr. L'Allier stated that what is words now will be nailed down at the hearing; the Council will not jeopardize the Village. There was further discussion, with it being noted that the rest of the Village will not pay for the Jandric bond depending on the way financing is set up. Mr. L'Allier noted that Mr. Locher was not present due to illness. Mr. L'Allier mentioned that Marvin Myhre had a drafted proposal for expansion of the no- shooting area in Lino; the area now so designated lies between Sunset Rd. and Highway 8 from North Road to Lilac St. Mr. Myhre proposed that the boundary be moved up to Main St. on the North because of the increase in popu- lation in that area and need to cover the school area as well as the area used by the Youth Center inmates on the north side of Lilac for excursions. On the South he thought the area should extend to Hwy 49 and down to County Rd. J and over to the Circle Pines boundary. This would exclude Baldwin Lake from hunting. His reasons included the increase in population, children from the trailer park playing in surrounding woods and children from the Circle Pines area South of Hwy 8 also playing in the woods. Mr. Myhre also requested that signs stating "No discharge of firearms except shotguns permitted" be put up on 2 paths leading north off County Road J in the Bald Eagle Lake area. Mr. Cardinal moved to authorize the installation of the 2 signs as requested above. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried unanimously. There was considerable discussion on the change of no- shooting area boundaries. Mrs. Anna Bohjanen wished to see the boundary moved further north to include the Lino Elementary School property. This will be on the agenda for the next meeting. Mr. Rosengren mentioned placing signs on Hwy 8 pointing to the new Village Hall. It was thought that these could be placed on State property in the triangle on Hwy 8 and Main Street. This will be taken up at the Building Committee meeting. Mr. Bohjanen noted that the sign on Hwy 242 mentioning Lino Lakes and access to 135u/ was stupid since people think Lino Lakes' boundary begins at Hwy 65. Mr. Rosengren suggested that since the County has taken over the maintenance of Old Hwy 8, that a letter should be sent to the County requesting signs to be placed at Hwy 8 and Main Street showing the direction and mileage to Anoka and Centerville as well as to the 2 freeway exits.,' It was agreed that such a letter will be sent. After discussion, Mr. Rosengren moved that proposed Ordinance No. 55 on inflammable liquids be adopted with the recommended changes by the Fire Marshall and the Lexington Fire Dept. and that the fees be set later by resolution. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried unanimously. Mr. William Blaylock reported on the North Central Public Service Co. rate increase and made the following recommendations: 1. That Lino Lakes approve a 4% rate increase rather than the requested 8.8 or 9% increase. 2. That Lino Lakes not grant a new franchise since the rate increase can be handled under the old franchise by adoption of a resolution. 3. That a regulatory authority on utility rates be established either by the State or by the communities affected in this area.
