CONSIDERATION OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN AMBULANCE OPERATIONS BASE AT THE LINO LAKES FIRE HALL Mr. Barry Matson, Director of Emergency Medical Services, District Memorial Hospital appeared before the Council to ask for formal consideration and support for the placement of a basic life sup- port and advance life support base in the new Centennial Fire Hall in Lino Lakes. He presented written material for the Council re- garding mileage data responding from the proposed Lino Lakes base. Mr. Matson explained that currently District Memorial ambulances are dispatched to emergencies north of Main Street and Health Cen- tral ambulances are dispatched for emergencies south of Main Street. The proposal for a base in Lino Lakes would reduce response time from an average of eleven to sixteen minutes to an average of one and one -half to two minutes. He also explained that District Memorial 140 COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Two Hospital was not entering into this project for financial gain but to provide better benefits to the people in this area. How- ever, both Centerville and Lino Lakes would have to use District Memorial Hospital EMS to make the operation financially feasible. Mr. Matson told the Council that all equipment used for this ser- vice must be licensed by an agency of the Minnesota Health De- partment. Their guidelines apply to both equipment and personnel and all must meet the same criteria. Presently if an emergency call is received by 911 for the area north of Main Street, 911 notifys Health Central and they in turn notify District Memorial Hospital. Mr. Matson is requesting that if a base is established in Lino Lakes that the Council mandate all EMS be dispatched to District Memorial Hospital. If after a period of operation, Circle Pines, Lexington or the east portion of Blaine is interested in the District Memorial service, this could be fur- ther investigated. Mr. Al Ross noted that Lino Lakes has in the past supported Dis- trict Memorial Hospital through tax levies and asked if the citi- zens would be supporting this EMS. Mr. Matson explained the ser- vice would be self supporting. He also explained that the ambulance must take the patient to the hospital of their choice unless they are in a life threatening situation. Mr. Marier asked if there were any objections from Centennial Fire District to leasing space in the new fire hall to District Memorial Hospital. Mr. Andy Neal explained the remodeling of the building includes space for this service. Mr. Neal told the Council there will be helicopter service available to District Memorial EMS. This service is proving very valuable. Mr. Neal pointed out a Centennial Fire District cost savings of ap- proximately $11,000 if the base is established in Lino Lakes. The Fire Department would not be taking rescue calls. Mayor Benson thanked Mr. Matson for coming tonight and asked Mr. Schumacher to put together all the information received tonight and to determine if Centerville agrees with this concept and then the Lino Lakes Council will make a decision. CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION #18 -86 REQUESTING INFORMATION FROM WILLIAMS PIPELINE COMPANY AND ASSISTANCE FROM APPROPRIATE REGU- LATORY AGENCIES Mr. Schumacher explained he had met with the Managers of the Cities of Circle Pines, Shoreview and Blaine and discussed the disaster in Moundsview. Because Williams Company has pipelines in the above men- tioned Cities and the concern that another disaster could occur, COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Three Resolution #18 -86 was proposed. It was noted that similar reso- lutions are being considered by these other Cities as well as Ramsey County. 1 Mr. Al Ross asked that the natural gas companies mark their lines in some manner to avoid broken lines as was experienced several weekends ago. Mr. Marier moved to approve Resolution #18 -86. Mr. Reinert seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. The Clerk read the Resolu- tion. CITY OF LINO LAKES RESOLUTION #18 - 86 A JOINT RESOLUTION REQUESTING INFORMATION FROM THE WILLIAMS PIPE- LINE COMPANY, AND ASSISTANCE FROM APPROPRIATE REGULATORY AGENCIES. WHEREAS, The Williams Pipeline Company as managed out of 2500 39th Avenue N.E., Minneapolis presently operates an underground pipeline system which runs through the communities of Lino Lakes, Shoreview, Blaine and Cir- cle Pines and WHEREAS, Through its underground pipeline is transported volatile petroleum products such as unleaded gasoline, fuel diesel, crude and refined oil, and WHEREAS, The Communities of Lino Lakes, Shoreview, Blaine and Circle Pines recognize the transportation of these products as a potentially hazardous situation as was demonstrated in the July 8, 1986 tragedy in Moundsview, Minnesota, and WHEREAS, The Communities of Lino Lakes, New Brighton and Cir- cle Pines have experienced broken lines and /or spills in recent years, and WHEREAS, The Communities of Lino Lakes, Shoreview, Blaine and Circle Pines with like systems to that of Moundsview feel the best way to avert a similar situation is to develop a closer understanding of pipeline operations, maintenance and safeguards. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED: 1. That the Communities of Lino Lakes, Shoreview, Blaine and Circle Pines do hereby request from the Williams Pipeline Company information regarding pipeline main- tenance policies, operating safeguard standards, 141 4r. COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Four existing facilities located within each community and construction standards. 2 That the Communities of Lino Lakes, Shoreview, Blaine and Circle Pines do hereby request from the appro- priate regulatory agency, be it the United States Department of Transportation, Office of Pipeline Safety Operations or the National Transportation Safety Board, professional and technical assistance with regards to a pipeline inspection and evaluation. We feel this request is warranted based on the Mounds - view incident, as well as the Williams Pipeline Com- pany's record over the past several years. Passed by the Council of the City of Lino Lakes this 28th day of July, 1986. t “<.�,.,f'� Clerk- Treasurer Mayor Benson asked that the staff obtain information on how Circle Pines Gas Utility and North Central Public Service mark their lines to avoid unintentional cutting of the lines. CONSIDERATION OF PARTICIPATING IN MINNESOTA SEAT BELT COALITION PROGRAM Chief Campbell explained the purpose of the coalition is to support the seat belt law and to provide education regarding the law. There is no membership fee. Chief Campbell and Public Works Director told the Council they will mandate that their employees using City vehicles use seat belts. Chief Campbell told the Council that he expects that in the future there will be penalties enforced for not using seat belts. Mr. Marier moved to approve enrollment in the Minnesota Seat Belt Coalition. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unani- mously. 1 1 143 COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Five PLANNING AND ZONING REPORT - PETER KLUEGEL A. Variance - John Guse, Set Back - Mr. Guse purchased a lot in the Lino Air Park on the corner of Thomas Street and 4th Avenue. Three problems with the lot has prompted Mr. Guse to apply for a variance to the setback requirement for a 3200 square foot air- plane hanger he wishes to construct on his lot. The problems are; the City has condemned 17 feet of his lot for additional street right -of -way for completion of the 4th Avenue project, the lot was originally undersized and there is a swale through the lot which allows drainage of his property and other properties to the west. Mr. Kluegel noted the Planning and Zoning Board did recommend ap- proval of the request although the vote was not unanimous. Mr. Guse was asked why he needed such a large building. He explained he owns two airplanes. He was asked why he did not locate the build- ing in a different spot and place the doors facing north. He ex- plained he would not be able to get the doors open in the winter. Mr. Reinert noted that the initial intent of this air strip was for the convenience of one airplane owners and also felt Mr. Guse should have been aware of the limitations of such a small lot when he purchased the lot. Mr. Reinert moved based on the Planning and Zoning Board's recommen- dations and the Building Inspectors recommendations to approve the variance as requested by Mr. Guse based on the criteria outlined by the Planning and Zoning Board. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried with Mr. Marier voting, no. B. Conditional Use Permit and Site and Building Plan Review - Wayne Scanlon - Mr. Scanlon is proposing to build a 45' x 90' building for use as a veterinary clinic and office in the light industrial (LI) zone on Otter Lake Road near Cedar Street. The Planning and Zoning Board did recommend approval with additional stipulations as outlined in their minutes. Mr. Kluegel has determined the mound septic system size to be twice the size recommended by the engineer. A drive- way access permit has been received from Anoka County and Mr. Scanlon is in the process of obtaining a Rice Creek Watershed District Permit. Mr. Scanlon explained the building will be a pole type building with a cedar and brick front. The front area will be landscaped per Plan- ning and Zoning recommendations. There will be one sign located near the road and the only lights will be above a side entry door and along side the front entry door. Mr. Marier moved to approve the Conditional Use Permit and Site and Building Plan Review for Wayne Scanlon subject to all of the recom- mendations of the Planning and Zoning Board and the Building Inspector to include exterior face as outlined by Mr. .Scanlon tonight. Mr. Boh- janen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. i44 COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Six C. Conditional Use Permit - Advertising Sign Lance Olson - Mr. Olson has requested a Conditional Use Permit for an advertis- ing sign to be located on 35W on the Glen Rehbein property adver- tising his business, Muffler Doctor. The sign is 10' x 20', metal frame and meets the set back requirements of the Sign Ordinance. The City Planner and the Planning and Zoning Board did recommend approval. There was concern on how this sign will affect future Lino Lakes business signs because of the regulation regarding separation of advertising signs. Mr. Kluegel explained that Lino Lakes business signs would not be classified as advertising signs and the separa- tion requirements would not be applicable in that case. Mr. Bohjanen moved to approve the Conditional Use Permit for an advertising sign for Mr. Olson subject to the recommendations of the City Planner and the Planning and Zoning Board. Mr. Marier seconded the motion. There was further questions on whether allowing this sign would create problems in the future for Lino Lakes businesses. Mr. Rehbein, owner of the property, was in the audience and explained this sign was meant to be posted for only six months. It did not appear there would be any businesses built in this area during this period of time. Voting on the motion, motion failed. Mayor Benson and Mr. Reinert voted no, a tie vote. Mayor Benson asked that this request be considered again when a contract between Mr. Rehbein and Mr. Olson is completed and a copy is available for Council consideration. 1 D. Ordinance #05 -86, First Reading - Building Standards Text Amendment - Mr. Kluegel explained that last February the Council had requested the Planning and Zoning Board to set up criteria for buildings in the business districts. This proposed ordinance would put Lino Lakes on about par with Bloomington with respect to building standards. Pole buildings and wood frame buildings would not be allowed in these districts as well as buildings with metal siding. Buildings would be constructed of steel, reinforced concrete, type III construction, masonary construction or equivalent or better. Mr. Reinert said it is conceivable with the poor soil conditions in Lino Lakes that these required buildings could look worse than some of the buildings already there. Glenn Rehbein - Mr. Rehbein told the Council that since this City does not have municipal sewer pole buildings would be viewed as temporary buildings to be torn down when sewer arrives and the land 1 1 1 1 145 COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Seven is purchased for permanent construction. He pointed out the situation on Lilac Street where the pole type commercial build- ings look much nicer than Molin Concrete. This proposed ordi- nance would not help the City promote a larger tax base but would discourage building in Lino Lakes altogether. Mr. Rehbein suggested this Ordinance should deal with screening and measures to insure a suitable looking front. Paul Wolters - Mr. Wolters referred to the Planning and Zoning Minutes where the Planner had suggested that the concrete struc- tures were more economical to heat /cool and to insure. He dis- puted the cost savings when the building would cost probably three times as much to build. It would take many years to recoup the initial costs. Mr. Kluegel explained that the Planning and Zoning Board did rec- ognize that if this Ordinance were approved there would be a lot less commercial building in Lino Lakes for the next few years. Mr. Reinert said he was not sure there is no place for pole or wood frame buildings in Lino Lakes. Jerry Blackbird - Mr. Blackbird felt that no steel exteriors would be very restrictive. If this Ordinance were in place fifteen years ago, City Hall would not have been built in this manner. Mr. Bohjanen suggested that this proposed Ordinance needs more sin- cere study. Mayor Benson asked that all the comments received tonight be taken back to the Planning and Zoning Board for further study and this be discussed when the Council meets with the Planning and Zoning Board. Mr. Bohjanen moved to table this item for further study. Mr. Marier seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. The Council took a ten minute break at 8:30 P.M. CONSIDERATION OF ANNUAL CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REVIEW Mr. Kluegel presented the Council a list of sixty -three (63) active Conditional Use Permits. He told the Council that items (6) and (10) no longer are using their Conditional Use Permits and have asked that they be withdrawn. Both items refer to Kennel Licenses that are no longer being used. Mr. Kluegel has received a complaint regarding Conditional Use Per- mit Number 8. This is a Kennel License issued to Sharon Todoroff. Gregg Coleman, her neighbor, was in the audience and explained there was a lot of barking and disturbing noise coming from this kennel and there were more dogs than the permit allowed. He said 146 COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Eight he did not want to shut down the kennel operation, however sugges- ted it be screened by a soundproof material to keep the noise at a minimum. Mrs. Todoroff explained one dog has cancer and will be disposed of and the fourth dog will replace this dog. She agreed to screen the kennel with soundproof material and also stated that they may move the kennel further back on the lot and this may also help the noise situation. Mr. Kluegel has received a complaint regarding Conditional Use Per- mit Number 36, Richard Klenck, 2260 Rolling Hills Drive. Mr. Klue- gel explained there are a number of vehicles parked on the property not allowed by the Conditional Use Permit. In addition, Mr. Evans at 2252 Rolling Hills Drive has appeared before the Council detail- ing what he believes to be violations of the permit and was in the audience tonight with photographs of digging and filling on the property. Mr. Kluegel noted that Mr. Klenck has now obtained a RCWD permit and a DNR permit for removing cattails. He has applied for a CORP permit. Mr. Reinert asked Mr. Kluegel if Mr. Klenck is complying with the Conditional Use Permit. Mr. Kluegel said he has more vehicles than allowed by the permit. Mr. Volk told the Council he is con- cerned about the condition of the street. He has received several calls regarding loaded trucks going over the street particularly during the period of weight restrictions. He will personally moni- tor this situation. Mr. Kluegel has received several complaints regarding Conditional Use Permit Number 51, Luthers Sport Shop. Most of the complaints concern the parking of boats and vehicles on Lois Lane obstructing traffic. This is a continuing problem. Mr. Volk has posted no parking signs, but the signs disappeared. This problem will be compounded when Lois Lane is completed as there will be consider - able more traffic past this business. Mr. Hawkins said he would get more information regarding Conditional Use Permit Number 22, El Rehbein and Son, Quad Subdivision. Mr. Marier moved to cancel Conditional Use Permits #6 and #10 per the wishes of the owners. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Mo- tion carried unanimously. Mr. Marier moved to require screening on Conditional Use Permit #8 as previously discussed by the end of August, 1986. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. 1 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Nine Mr. Marier moved to require that Mr. Klenck comply with the re- quirements of Conditional Use Permit #36 and to make sure trucks are empty when leaving and entering the property. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Bohjanen moved to instruct the Police Department to tag veh- icles parked on Lois Lane in violation of Conditional Use Permit #51. Mr. Marier seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Since there were no concerns with the balance of the Conditional Use Permits, they will automatically renew until July, 1987. ORDINANCE #07 -86. FIRST READING. MORATORIUM ON CERTAIN BUILDING STANDARDS Mr. Schumacher presented this Ordinance and explained that although the Council had passed a motion declaring a moratorium, Mr. Haw- kins has stated the Council will have to pass an Ordinance to make the moratorium effective. He noted this Ordinance will not affect items already being processed. Mr. Glenn Rehbein told the Council that since Minnesota has only a six month building season this Ordinance will cause a hardship. He said the Council should try to help development. The Council noted that the cooperation of developers has not been the best in the past. After further discussion regarding the length of the moratorium, Mr. Marier moved to approve the first reading or Ordinance #07 -86 and dispense with the reading. Motion died for lack of a second. CITY OF LINO LAKES COUNTY OF ANOKA STATE OF MINNESOTA Ordinance No. 07 - 86 AN ORDINANCE DECLARING A MORATORIUM ON THE BUILDING OF POLE AND METAL TYPE BUILDINGS IN THE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL (LI) AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DISTRICTS WITHIN THE CITY OF LINO LAKES.

ATTEST: r \l�! 1, •- r =:, Benjami' G. :- _on, Mayor Marilyn G. Anderson, Clerk- Treasurer CLERK'S REPORT - MARILYN ANDERSON A. Consideration of Lake Animal Care, Inc. Contract for Animal Control. Mrs. Anderson explained that Lake Animal Care, Inc. has purchased White Bear Animal Control, April 1, 1986. White Bear Animal Control is the current animal control service for Lino Lakes. Lake Animal Care, Inc. has prepared a new contract which is exactly the same as White Bear Animal Control and Mrs. Anderson is asking for permission to sign this contract. Mr. Schumacher explained that the animal service basically works with the Police Department. There was a problem earlier this year and we requested and were assigned a different animal control officer. There has been no further problems. 1 IWHEREAS: The Department of Natural Resources had declared that Lots 13 and 14, Block 7, Lakes Addition #3 remain as a holding pond area and be deemed unbuildable, and COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Eleven Mr. Bohjanen moved to renew the animal care contract under the new name Lake Animal Care, Inc. Mr. Reinert seconded the motion. Mo- tion declared passed. B. Consideration of Resolution #16 -86, Re- Apportioning Assessments, G. M. Development. Mrs. Anderson explained that two lots owned by G. M. Development were deemed unbuildable by the Department of Na- tural Resources. Since there were assessment balances on each lot, G. M. Development asked that the assessments be moved to the adjoin- ing lots. A resolution of the Council is required so that this can be registered at the County Court House. Mr. Reinert moved to adopt Resolution #16 -86. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. The Clerk read the Resolution. Motion carried unani- mously. CITY OF LINO LAKES Resolution #16 - 86 A RESOLUTION RE- APPORTIONING ASSESSMENTS ON CERTAIN LOTS ON BLACK DUCK DRIVE, LINO LAKES, MINNESOTA 149 WHEREAS: G. M.

(2) Assessments on Lot 14, Block 7, Lakes Addition #3 be re- apportioned to Lot 15, Block 7, Lakes Addition #3. Adopted by the City Council of Lino Lakes this 1986. day of July, Marilyn G. Anderson, Clerk - Treasurer COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Twelve ENGINEER'S REPORT - RON STALLBERG A. West Shadow Lake Drive Feasibility Report - Resolution #20 -86 - Mr. Stallberg presented a map to the Council indicating a different alignment for West Shadow Lake Drive in the area where the creek runs under the road. He also explained regardless of where the road is placed soil borings would be needed to determine how much fill is needed. He asked for Council approval of the alignment. Mr. Davidson told the Council that their hydraulics department will study what effect the lake will have on determining what type of bridge construction is needed. He asked the Council to consider whether or not there will be canoe traffic under the new bridge. A bridge structure as opposed to a large culvert could cost three times as much as the culvert. There was a question as to why the road was being realigned. Mr. Stallberg explained that this is a proposed state aid road and state aid funds would pay for the reconstruction. Therefore, the road must meet state aid standards. The curve in the road south of the bridge would not meet state aid specifications. Mr. Schumacher noted that RCWD is doing a study to develop control of the waters in and out of Reshanau Lake. He asked Mr. Stallberg to correlate his study with the RCWD study. Mr. Stallberg also noted a DNR permit would be required if the project goes forward. Mr. Marier said that he understood this project was to correct the problem of water flooding the street not to construct a whole new roadway. Mr. Davidson explained if the City planned to use state aid funds to correct the problem, the project must meet state aid standards which would require some realignment of the road as well as obtaining additional right -of -way and providing an adequate open- ing for water to flow. This will also require review by the state aid department. Mr. Marier was concerned about the time involved to complete the reconstruction so that flooding would not occur again in the spring. There was further discussion regarding the portion of road to be reconstructed. Mayor Benson asked that the area of reconstruction be determined so that it would follow the existing roadbeds as closely as possible. He also requested the estimated cost. Mr. Stallberg said he would proceed on the soils work. Mr. Volk had completed a traffic count on this street during the time the golf course was closed. He will be doing another traffic count now that the golf course has been reopened to determine the effect of golf course traffic on this area. He proposed asking the County for assistance in upgrading the road. 1 1 1 1 1 151 COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Thirteen It was decided to improve West Shadow Lake Drive (7th Avenue) in three separate stages. The first stage would start near the en- trance to Country Lakes Park and end near the area where the newer homes are built. This footage will be determined and Resolution #19 -86 will be revised to include the footage and the Resolution will be brought back to the Council when Mr. Stallberg completes his feasibility study. Resolution #20 -86 will also be considered at that time. B. Consideration Of Application from North Central Public Service for Rice Lake Estates - Mr. Stallberg noted a letter from Bob Toddie which indicates that the application from North Central conforms with all City Codes. Mr. Schumacher said he is waiting for further information from the Public Utilities Commission on this request and how it affects the gas franchises. Mayor Benson noted he had received a telephone call from a member of the gas franchise nego- tiating committee asking that the Council not take action on this matter until further information is received. Mr. Marier moved to table this item. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. C. 4th Avenue Plans and Specifications, Re- affirm Resolution #12 -86. Mr. Stallberg explained the final plans for 4th Avenue have been completed and now require the signature of the Mayor so they can be sent to the MSA for final approval. The plans include ditch cleaning, reconstruction of the roadway and drainage structures. Mr. Davidson has recently talked to Mr. LeBlond regarding the under- ground pipe across his property. This is the main outlet to get water over to ditch #22. He does not anticipate a problem with ob- taining a permanent easement from Mr. LeBlond. Mr. Marier moved with cost figures being stable to approve the 4th Avenue plans and to reaffirm Resolution #12 -86. Mr. Reinert sec- onded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. CITY OF LINO LAKES Resolution No. 12 - 86 RESOLUTION APPROVING PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS AND ORDERING ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS FOR 4TH AVENUE BETWEEN MAIN STREET AND LILAC STREET. WHEREAS, pursuant to a resolution passed by the Council on August 12, 1985, the City Engineer has prepared plans and specifications for the improvement of 4th Avenue between Main Street and Lilac Street and has presented such plans and specifications to the Council for approval; 152 COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Fourteen NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF LINO LAKES, MINN- ESOTA: 1.

Bruggeman Construction Letter of Credit. Mr. Hawkins explained that Bruggeman Construction has requested that the City draw on $75,000.00 of the $80,000.00 Letter of Credit for payment to the contractor who blacktopped a street in West Oaks of Bald Eagle. 1 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING July 28, 1986 Page Fifteen Mr. Marier moved to approve this request. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Mr. Volk asked if the City is paying the contractor does this in- validate the warranty on the road. Mr. Hawkins said no, the con- tractors must honor the City requirements. Mr. Schumacher was concerned that the City was going to pay a con- tractor for work in the City when the contractor did not have a contract for the work. Mr. Hawkins said the check from the bank could be written to the City and the contractor and the City would endorse the check. Voting on the motion, motion carried unanimously. B. Application for Beer Permit - St. Joseph's Catholic Church. Mn Hawkins said the application and insurance certificate appear to be in order and recommended approval. Mr. Reinert moved to approve this application. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. OLD BUSINESS A.

Status Report - Orange Street - Don Volk - Mr. Volk asked for authority to work with the people on Orange Street to do some filling on the boulevard to keep the runoff in the street in lieu of install- ing curbing. If filling the boulevard does not work, he will ask for authorization to do some survey work to develop a plan to drain run- off by ditching and acquiring additional right -of -way. Mr. Volk noted the fill will be restricted to public right -of -way to avoid a liability situation. Residents from Orange Street were in the audience and said they would work with Mr. Volk in placing the fill material as he directs them. Mr. Marier moved to approve the request of Mr. Volk. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. C.

Mr. Hawkins told the Council that if the developer does not now have an investment in the roads the Council can impose the present standard.

Res. #22 -86. F. Sale of Maple Street Lots - Mr. Schumacher outlined the previous sales in this area. They are considerably higher than what has been bid. Mr. Volk has outlined a need for retaining an additional 20' easement to construct a proper turn around since Maple Street will end at the west end of the lot. Mr. Kluegel has indicated that if a twenty foot easement is retained this will make the lot unbuild- able since there will not be enough room for a house and a septic system. After further discussion, Mr. Reinert moved to wait with the sale of this lot until Maple Street is extended to Nordin Street. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. G. Financial Status of Comprehensive Plan - Mr. Schumacher ex- plained that there is $9,000.00 budgeted in 1986 for the completion of the Comprehensive Plan. To date $14,376 has been spent and there are at least two more meetings planned. He is concerned be- cause a document still has to be prepared to encompass all the ma- terial. Mr. Schumacher was directed to set up guidelines for the Task Force and the Planning and Zoning Board. These guidelines will include that all requests for consultant work will be made through the Administrator. Mr. Schumacher will inform these two committees of the Council's directive.
