Home at a new home site for two to three weeks while the home is being
constructed. The Building Inspector had informed them of their violation
and told them the home had to be removed. Mr. Dinsmore said their three
children are in shcool and he did not want to interrupt this.
The general consensus of the Council was this was not something that could
be allowed - the ordinance must be adjerred to in order to maintain control
of the use of motor homes and travel trailers within the City. It was
suggested that the motor home be parked at Troutaire for the few weeks be-
fore their home is completed. Mr. Dinsmore thanied the Council and said
he would check this out.

a copy of the bids with Mr. Volk's recommendations. There was some dis-

The Hearing on the hunting ordinance was called to order at 8:30 P.M.
Mayor Karth read the pteition as presented at the last meeting asking that
the boundaries be returned to where they were before this ordinance was
passed. Mayor Karth received petitions from 10 property owners asking that
the boundaries remain as they are at the present time.
Mayor Karth felt the only problem with the new ordinance was that the
boundaries were changed from what had originally been published in the papers
Mr.Locher said under a standard form of government such as this City
operates under, it is not mecessary to publish the Ordinance before it is
approved.
Mayor Karth explained this matter was first considered last February and
has been discussed several times since that date.
There was much discussion from the audience on who does the hunting and
where the problems area; how far pellets will travel; why this should be
reopened and why it should not be reopened.
It was felt that the persons who wanted their property in the no hunting
area should have that privilege. Mr. Gotwald will prepare a map on a half
section deleting the lands so petitioned. This map will be in the Clerk's
office on Novmeber 5, 1979 for inspection and this ratter will be on the
November 12, 1979 agenda.

Mr. Gotwald felt this City should consider some sort of Ordinance govern-
ing the filling of lands - such as has been ahppening on Lake Drive near

Anoka County Health Department. This matter should also be reported to
the DNR since wet lands are involved.

This provides a check list for the developers setting forth all things
that;'must be done in the development. Mr. Gotwald will supply a copy
for this.
