23 11/23/70 Mr. L'Allier noted that the original copy or Ord. No. 55 was received, that he was about to sign it and that the Clerk would make copies of it on the demonstrator photocopier for the Council, the Police and the Fire Marshal, who should have several copies to distribute. Mr. Cardinal stated that the P&Z had considered sign application #38 fr the Out Post for a location at the S.E. corner of the intersection of Birch St. and Centerville Rd. The P&,Z_ had, recommended allowing the permit providing that the location is 500 feet sou of the intersection. Mr. Cardinal moved to grant the above sign permit to Ray Rehbein dba the Out Post with the stipulation that the sign be located 500 feet south of the inter- section of Birch St. and Centerville Road. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried unanimously. Mr. Jaworski inquired who checked the sign construction and location of existing signs in the Village. There was some discussion on this, noting that the Engineer checked the loca- tions of proposed signs. Mr. Cardinal moved to authorize the Building Inspector and the' Clerk to get together to identify existing signs and to notify the owners by the first of the year with the stipulation that the licensing be go rerned by the Attorneys's inter- pretation of Ordinance No. 51. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried unanimously. Mr. Cardinal reported that another sign request from Skelly Oil for a 100 foot sign was being studied further and would be on the December P&Z agenda. There was discussion on the tall signs. The Clerk noted that Mr. Gotwald had sent a letter on this to Mr. McLean. Mr. Cardinal reported that the P&Z had quite an audience concerned with the no- shooting areas. Most of these persons wanted our gun ordinance left as it is, but to have it enforced. Mr. Locher stated that he had talked withthe Sheriff and the Game Warden, and found that the Sheriff was unaware that deer could not be hunted with slugs in Lino Lakes. He suggested that a letter to this effect be sent to the Sheriff; also that the signs pro- hibiting all guns except shotguns be changed with the addition of : "with birdshot only". Mr. Locher looked over the petition which had been submitted at the P&Z. Mr. Cardinal mentioned that the P&Z had recommended that we leave the law as written, but that Ordinance No. 27 be enforced by the Sheriff and the local officers in lieu of no- shoot- ing. There was considerable discussion on the matter with a note by the Mayor that suggest- ing not banning hunting around the schools was archaic. Mr. Cardinal moved to table the matter until the first meeting in February; also to accept the petition. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried unanimously. Mr. Cardinal meptioned that a trailer near the dam on Hwy 14, which was not being used, was found to be just inside the Centerville limits and was no problem to us. Mr. Cardinal suggested that after the first of the year we work on having an inspector for new signs since no one checks to see if they are erected according to the permits. Mr. Bohjanen asked whether a special building permit for each sign would be required; Mr. Locher stated no, but a fee schedule should be set up which woul d be adequate to cover the examination by the inspector. After discussion, Mr. Cardinal moved that Mr. Al Dupre be authorized to inspect all new signs, that he be sent a copy of each sign permit, and that an extra fee of $5 be charged for each sign to cover the cost of inspection of the sign. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried unanimously. The scheduled hearing for the Smith rezoning was called to order at 9:34 p.m. Mr. Cardinal stated that Mr. Smith had attended the P&Z meeting, butt-that he had not conformed with the requirements of Ord. No. 21C. Part of the land in the original request was postponed. After discussion, in which Mr. Locher noted that he had mailed notices of the hearing and that the hearing covers a small parcel of the total area, Mr. Cardinal moved to continue the Smith hearing before the P&Z on the 16th of December and before the Council on the 28th of December, with new notices to be mailed. Seconded by Mr. Bohjanen. Carried unanimously. Mr. Bohjanen moved to adjourn, the hearing at 9:37 p.m. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried unanimously.
