1 1 1 ? 11 Mr. Rosengren asked about blacktopping the skating rinks. Mr. Jaworski stated that present plans were to put clay on them. They have been spraying the weeds. There was discussion on various types of sealers to be used. Mr. Jaworski will check with chemical companies for opinions. Mr. Denny Houle inquired whether the sulfite used on roads had killed the weeds. Since this hadn't been done last year, no one had checked on it then and it couldn't be determined this year. Mr. L'Allier mentioned the water and sewer study maps now on the bulletin board. Mr. Locher stated that the agreement for the Baldwin Lake Park property had been redrawn and partially signed by the City of St. Paul. He went over the changes which had been made. He also stated that Mr. Ray had assured him that the property would be covered by liability insurance. Any plans we might make for changes in the property will have to be first approved by the Water Department. The Village will build any roads deemed necessary and will maintain any existing and new roads. They want a certified copy of the resolution accepting the agreement and author- izing the signing of same by the Mayor and Clerk. Mr. Cardinal moved that a resolution be passed accepting the agreement to lease the property on Baldwin Lake from the Board of Water Commissioners of the St. Paul Water Department, that the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to sign the agreement, that the copies of said agreement be given the Attorney to get the necessary signatures, and that the Clerk send a certified copy of this resolution to the Board of Water Commissioners. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Locher stated that all was in order to get the deed for the 2 -acre parcel from the Waldochs for the new municipal building. There would be an outright purchase for this parcel and a contract for deed on the remainder of the 30 acres. Notice of the purchase would have to be published if the amount of purchase was in excess of 1% of the assessed valuation- -Minn. Statutes 4112.21. Mr. Cardinal moved to pass a resolution authorizing that the papers be drawn:up for the deed, that the publishment be made, if necessary, that the Clerk disburse the check in the amount of $2100.00 to Mr. and Mrs. Yin. Waldoch in exchange for clear title to the 2 -acre parcel. Mr. Cardinal will deliver the check personally. Mr. Locher will work out the title, having a certificate of survey.
