1 1 101. Mr. and Mrs. Mishaud and Mr. Kelling were present to discuss the high water situation on Aqua Lane. Mr. & Mrs. Mishaud told of their flight over the village and their observations, including several floodgates which were closed, or partially closed. The Anoka County Ditch system was discussed, and Mr. Domning gave considerable background information on the topography of the areas surrounding Lino Lakes and how it affects drainage into this village. Mr. Mathews entered a complaint and asked the Council's help in the sale of his property to the Anoka Power Company (a strip 900 ft. x 70 ft). The original assessment had been made at $10,000, now because the prop- erty had water standing on it, the Power Company was offering $1,000. Mr. Walter Stucke, 6220 Baldwin Lake Road, entered a complaint that the man owning the adjoining land was selling lots, and had run in a road which was located only 6 feet from Mr. Stuck's bedroom. After consid- erable discussion on this problem, Mrs. Dupre was asked to inform Mr. Dupre, the Building Inspector, to get a description of the area involved so the Engineer and the Council can review this complaint. As a result of the above discussion, Mr. Anderson motioned, Zelinka seconded, that the attorney draw up an ordinance to have the Zoning Committee and the Council approve of any platting of 22 acres or more. Motion carried. Mr. Bacon of the Bacon Equipment Company was introduced and described the radar unit he was selling for use on police cars. The price of the unit is $325.00 and Mr. Bacon agreed to let Officers Raymond and West use the unit until the next Council meeting, on a test basis. Mrs. Faymoville was present and asked for rezoning on a piece of prop- erty to be sold to an oil company. The hearing was set for July 12, and the usual procedure of posting and publication will take place. This was handled by a motion from Anderson and second from Speiser. Motion carried unanimously. Speiser reported that the grass needed mowing in both parks, and he felt we should seriously consider resurfacing and other park needs immediately. Anderson reported that the Planning Commission meeting on June 2nd was a study on section maps and possible roads to handle future development in the village. The Planning Commission approved various portions of Sections 19, 15, 16 and 17 subject to hearing, and approval of the Council. Anderson also moved, with second by Domning, that maps be revised showing the cloverleaf on Highway 8 and the existing roads and buildings. A check was received from Mr. Rosengren for $25.00 for the snowplow purchased. Mr. Backlin moved, second by Speiser, that our Engineer contact the County Engineer to see what can be done about county ditches. Carried.
