COUNCIL MINUTES JUNE 9, 1997 sanitary sewer is installed, for example. In this example, the proposed wording defines the seven-year time frame to start when the sanitary sewer is installed. Council Member Bergeson asked if the "clock" would start if the property changes hands. Mr. Ahrens clarified the stipulation follows with the land so it would not start with a change in ownership unless the mortgage company requires it. Council Member Bergeson moved to adopt Resolution No. 13 - 97 as presented. Council Member Lyden seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Resolution No. 13 - 97 can be found at the end of these minutes. Consideration of Resolution No. 14 - 97, Amending the Lino Lakes City Code by Amendment to Section 402.02, Connection to Sanitary Sewer - Mr. Ahrens explained this resolution is the same as Resolution No. 13 - 97 except it relates to sanitary sewer. The proposed Code revision will allow property owners to connect to municipal sanitary sewer without the current requirement to connect to the other utility (municipal water). The Code revision states that connection to the other utility must be done within a seven year time frame from the later date of connection to the first utility or when the second utility is available. Council Member Neal moved to adopt Resolution No. 14 - 97 as presented. Council Member Bergeson seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Resolution No. 14 - 97 can be found at the end of these minutes. Consideration of Resolution No. 97 - 74, Ordering a Report, Lake Drive Utility Improvements - Mr. Ahrens advised staff previously prepared a feasibility report investigating the extension of utilities from Apollo Drive to Main Street and held a neighborhood meeting to discuss the project with area residents and business owners. He explained the proposed resolution requires Council approval to order the preparation of the report per State Statutes and the Lino Lakes City Charter. Mr. Ahrens advised this action requires a 4/5ths vote of the Council since it is a City -initiated project. Mr. Hawkins stated this is correct, a 4/5ths vote is required. Since a full Council was not present, Mayor Landers polled the Council. Council Member Bergeson inquired regarding the cost of the feasibility report. Mr. Ahrens estimated $5,000 which would be one-half City paid and one-half developer paid. He reviewed the project area and properties to be served. The informal poll indicated a 4/5ths majority was present. Council Member Bergeson moved to adopt Resolution No. 97 - 74 as presented. Council Member Lyden seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. 5
