• COUNCIL MEETING AUGUST 10, 1987 meeting could be set to consider the summary items. Mr. Reinert said he wanted to know where we are going with the suggestions made by the City Auditor. Mr. Bisel said it was important to prioritize issues. Mayor Benson asked Mr. Tautges to assess the overall financial picture of Lino Lakes. Mr. Tautges said the overall picture regarding the General Fund was 1.00% improved over four years ago and recommended that the Council continue building the reserve balance in this fund. He noted that the City is in a very sound position but noted that with a funding partner such as the State of Minnesota, the City should remain cautious since the State can change its rules anytime. He further suggested that the City let the legislature know its funding needs. Mayor Benson thanked Mr. Taugtes for coming this evening. FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 17 - 87, CONCERNING BUILDING STANDARDS IN COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL DISTRICTS The Council at the July 27th meeting instructed that the proposed pole barn ordinance be amended by Mr. Schumacher and Mr. Miller the City Planner. Mr. Miller has prepared,a list of eight changes and in his memorandum to the Council dated July 31, 1987 explained what these changes will accomplish. Mr. Schumacher did outline these changes for the Council. Mr. Kluegei said he would not have a problem with these changes. Mr. Bisel noted that this proposal would allow existing pole structures to be increased by 50% and the Council could require certain enhancements to be made at the time it is enlarged. He also asked if this ordinance will improve the type of construction in Lino Lakes and how will this improve the business climate? Mr. Schumacher said this probably will not be known for four or five years. Mr. Bisel moved to approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 17 - 87 and dispense with the reading.
