There was discussion on the matter of the CD jackets not being delivered by Uniforms Unlimited. Check #1695 written to them is still out. Mr. Locher will check with the PERA on the Village's outstanding contributions. Mr. Jaworski reported that the light at the St. Joseph's Church was moved out near the street previously. The Village is now paying for this light. Mr. Bohjanen reported on the March 6 C&BDC meeting. He also stated that the Water- shed Assn. of Fridley seemed to want a change of plans in having the County Commis- sioners handle the Rice Creek problem rather than the Legislature. The State Hwy Dept. turned down the locating of our sign at the junction of Hwys 8 and 49. The county has offered the use of their right -of -way along North Road and it was decided to put the sign at the corner of Hwy 8 and North Road. Mr. Rosengren stated that St. Joseph's Church wants complete plans for work to be done on Sunrise, so no work can be done on it yet. He also reported that the County will furnish a culvert on 80th. Mr. Backlin reported that vandals had taken down a sign at the Domning corner, and that there is no Stop sign on Lakeview and Sunrise at North Road and street signs are also missing. Mr. Rosengren will contact the engineering firm to replace the sign and landscape the dirt piles at the location. A list of culverts and signs needed is being made. Mr. Rosengren moved that the Village install "Children Playing ", "Slow ", and "20 mph" speed signs on Baldwin Lake Road. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried. Mrs. Bohjanen asked whether 30 mph wasn't the legal state limit and if the police could enforce a lower limit. Mr. Locher will check. Mr. L'Allier instructed the police to enforce the 20 mph signs. Mr. L'Allier stated that there will be another meeting with Mr. Maurice Chandler on March 28, He asked the Council and the P&Z to be present. Mr. L'Allier also reported on the hearing held by the Minn. Water Control Commission on March 6 regarding Forest Lake's request. Forest Lake had stated that it would cost them some $297,000 to divert their effluent to the Sunrise River. The case was taken under advisement. It was mentioned that Mr. Harold Hansen had not yet sent a legal description of his roadway to Mr. Gotwald. Mention was made of the Metropolitan Airport Commission hearings to be held on April 22, regarding possible building of an airport north of the Cities in the near future. Mr. Bohjenen suggested that Lino Lakes hold a joint meeting with Blaine on this sub- ject or to discuss it at the Anoka County Assn. of the League of Municipalities on March 27th. The police report for Feb. as follows: 36 radio calls, 3 burglaries, 6 tickets, 9 escapees from the Youth Cnter involving four hours time, travelled 1161 miles. Hours: Mr. Raymond, 55 hr, Mr. West, 55 hrs., and Mr. Myhre 45 hrs. There had been no complaints at the public police meeting. Mr. Locher reported that according to the St. Paul papers, Mr. Albertson has presented a bill which would require prosecution now handled on retainers by the Villages to be bendled by the County Attorney's office. This would be much more profitable for the village, also the County has more investigative power. He will write Mr. Albertson for details.
