The requisitions were gone over. Mr. Marier suggested purchase of a stamp for
approving requisitions and then they could just initial them. He also noted that
there are four checks as of June 12th where no purchase orders were requested.
There was question as to why the wide difference in advertisement charges. Mr.
Cardinal pointed out that whenadvertising for Deputy Clerk the different papers
ranged from as low as $6.00 to as high as $15.88 for the same ad. Mr. Rasmussen
from the Forest Lake paper noted that for one thing, it is advertising space, and
it would be a different rate than a legal ad and dependent on the amount of
circulation.
Mr. Jaworski moved to pay all bills #4516 through #4546. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal.
Carried with Mr. Marier voting No.
Mr. Marier moved to accept the requisitions, holding out No. 77 until we find what

Mr. Marier moved to approve the minutes of the special June 6th meeting as written.
Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried with Mr. Zelinka abstaining.
The minutes of the regular June 12th meeting were corrected as follows:
I. Page 3, paragraph 4, line 1, after "check on ", change sentence to read,
"what part areas are in ".
2. Page 3, paragraph 9, change 4th sentence to read, "If there is any
surplus material it will be dumped on 2nd street ".
3. Page 4, paragraph 5, first line, "done" spelled incorrectly.
4. Page 6, paragraph 9, strike paragraph up to last sentence and insert
the following : "Mr. Bohjanen read the test of a letter he had written
to the Attorney, as follows:
'Please explain Appointment Process on Page 53, At the last council
meeting the council was accused of not using the correct procedure
when hiring police officers because we have -not gone to the State Civil
Service Commission for the help which they offer.
I feel the council has acted correctly when they have acted on the
recommendations of one of its committees, the Personnel Commission and
even if they did not have such a commission they would be authorized to
appoint a police officer without going through the Civil ServJce
Commission. Appointments were made on the basis of written and oral
examinations.
Is this not correct? Is not the help from the Civil Service Commission
optional?
5. Page 8, paragraph 9, last line, add at end "and dependent onthe amount
of circulation ".
Mr. Jaworski moved to approve the minutes of the June 12th meeting as corrected.
Seconded by Mr. Zelinka. Carried.

Mr. Bohjanen noted that one thing that had not been done at the last meeting was to
set Mr. Zelinka's official duties. Mr. Bohjanen wished to appoint Mr. Zelinka as
Liaison to the Personnel Commission, Liaison to the Environmental Commission, and
alternate Liaison to the Community and Business. Development Commission. Mr. Jaworski
asked who would be the Liaison to the C &BDC; Mr. Bohjanen stated that he himself
would be. Mr. Jaworski moved to approve the above duties for Mr. Zelinka.
Seconded by Mr. Zelinka. Carried.
The Clerk reported receiving $180.00 in municipal court fines for May, affidavits of
publication for Ord. No. 56A and the Deputy Clerk ads in 4 newspapers, and a letter
from the Anoka County Health Dept., which stated that their inspection had not shown
any violations of health regulations on Elmer LaMere's property.
A June 15th letter from the Minnesota Pollution Control AGency listed the
areas in the Village which would be exempted formthe burning pan as well as
those which must be included. Attorney Locher was asked to show the areas included
under the ban on a Village map. Mr. Locher mentioned that an ordinance setting forth
adoption of the PCA regulations must be in the papers this week in order to become
effective in time, and that he would have to have this into the paper by 5 o'clock
on Wednesday. Mr. Jaworski moved to have the Attorney put the drawing and the
regulations on the burning ban in the paper before Wednesday. Seconded by Mr. Marier.
Carried unanimously. Mr. Locher left the room to do the map.
Mr. Jaworski moved that we request the Fire Marshall to get copies of these regulations
and the map, and, in those areas where burning is not allowed, that the people be notified
so that they won't be in violation. Seconded by Mr. Marier. After some discussion
it was decided that the Fire Marshall would be in charge of passing out this information
to the people. Floyd Miller noted that his cabinet shop had scrap lumber to dispose
of and wondered how to get rid of it if they couldn't burn. Mr. Jaworski noted that
if he was in the no- burning area, he would have to have it hauled away. Vote
on the motion showed all in favor.
Reports dated June 12th had been received from Engineer Gotwald on the contracts under
the $550,000 bond issue. Mr. Marier was not satisfied with the reports, noting that
we had asked for the remaining balances, not the percentage of the total; we want the
total monies left to be spent. Mr. Marier moved that Mr. Gotwald make a further break-
down showing the actual monies to be spent and what have been spent, and that he bring
this next time or send it in ahead. Seocnded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried.
Clerk had received an application for a building permit for an addition to the
Skyline Auto Body building. Mr. Jaworski wondered if they intend to build over

Mr. Zelinka noted that they should be notified.
Mr. Bohjanen had received a letter from Ted Winiecki tendering his resignation from
the Planning & Zoning Board due to insufficient time due to his work, and noted that
he had a person in mind to fill the vacancy. Mr. Zelinka moved that the Council accept
the resignation of Ted Winiecki. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried.
Mr. Marier moved the appointment of David Farrond to fill Mr. Winiecki's vacancy,
noting that Mr. Farrond had been inthe Village 5 years and wished to serve the
Village in this capacity, that he had been active where he had come from, his
employment is in data process analyzing, etc., and that he knew him personally.

Mr. Zelinka asked if there was any objection from the P &Z. Mr. Marier said No, that
they asked for a replacement. Mr. Jaworski asked if he would be able to attend meetings;
Mr. Marier said Yes. Motion seconded by Mr.Jaworski and carried with Mr. Bohjanen
voting No.
Clerk had received a bill from Calvin Roastad for work he had done on Holly Drive with
his tractor. Mr. Jaworski asked that the bill be held until he could talk over the
rate of pay with Roy Backlin.
One application for the position of Deputy Clerk had been received, fromMrs. Judy
A. Helin, 890 Main Street; she had told the Clerk she could take shorthand, although
she had not done so for some time. Mr. Bohjanen said he had talked to the Personnel
Commission Chairman, who had called the other members and got hold of all of them
but one, and they had felt that if we could only get one applicant in six weeks we should
accept her. Mr. Bohjanen noted that she lives close to the Hall and is free to fill in
in the office and also for P &Z meetings; he noted that we need help in the office now
and for any emergencies which might come up. He requested that the Council hire her
as Deputy Clerk since we only have one applicant.
Mr. Jaworski moved to hire Mrs. Judy Helin as Deputy Clerk starting tomorrow, so she
could get acquainted with things before the Clerk left over the Fourth of July.
Seconded by Mr. Marier. Carried.
Mr. Zelinka assumed that the hourly stipend had been set for the Deputy. Clerk
stated that she would receive $2.60 per hour. Mr. Jaworski noted there would be
a trial period. Mr. Bohjanen requested, that until we get caught up with the
work, that the Deputy work at least 1 full day (72 hours) per week, noting that
there is a considerable amount of police work to be done also. Mr. Marier moved that
the Deputy Clerk work one full day per week for two months starting tomorrow.
Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried. Mr. Zelinka asked under whose jurisdiction the
Deputy Clerk would be. Mr. Bohjanen stated that she would be under the Clerk and
himself.
The hearing for Chomonix South Second Addition Plat was called to order at 8:35P.M.
Mr. Marier read a letter from Bill Meyer of Swburban Engineering asking that the plat
hearing be delayed, and that they did not appear before the P &Z. Mr. Jaworski moved that
we postpone their hearing indefinitely and that they must submit a new date for a
hearing. Seconded by Mr. Zelinka. Carried.
Mr. Jaworski reported that we have a requisition for about 1 ton of calcium chloride
for dust control; this should. take care of the village streets for the summer at a
cost of $104.00.
Mr.Jaworski proposed that we raise the salaries of the Road and Park Supervisor, the
mechanics and those people who do roads and parks work as follows:
Roy Backlin - raise from $3.50 to $4.50 /hour
Mechanics - raise from $4.00 to $4.50 /hour
Laborers - raise from $2.70 to $3.25 /hour
He feels the Supervisor should not get less money than those who are working for him,
also, the men have had no raise since 1969. He made the recommendation a motion.
There was discussion. Mr. Jaworski stated that he wished these rates to be good until
the first of the year, and noted that they should have been raised the first of this
year. He stated that there are from 1 to 5 men working on the roads and parks, that
we can't determine hwo many hours this will be, that Roy puts in about 4 hours a day
and the other men more. Mr. Bohjanen asked if we are justified under the Wage and
Price Board; Mr. Marier felt we were if we didn't do this at the first of the year and
the cost of living increase were more than the wage increase - however, this would
have to go to the Wage and Price Board.
6/26/72
Motion seconded by Mr.Mari er. Motion was amended to read that the wage increases
would be effective July 1st, and that they would be retroactive to that date when we
get the answer back from the Wage and Price Board. Motion Carried.
Mr. Jaworski felt we should consider hiring a full time man as -,we will have a water
system to take of and sewer system as well; there will be meters to install. also.
Mr. Jaworski said that he had talked with Mr. Gotwald today, and that they had
visited Chomonix. Mr. Gotwald had recommended that the pumphouse and meters be checked
once a day, so that if something goes wrong we can know very soon. Mr. Jaworski said
he doesn't feel that we can do an adequate job of this on part time men, that we should
have someone trained wo can do this. Mr. Marier asked if we have anyone qualified;
Mr. Jaworski thought so. Mr. Marier asked if they need a license. Mr. Jaworski said
that the State trains them and tests them as to fluoriation and chlorination;
however we only have fluoridation.
Mr. Marier asked if this man is to be versatile or just on utilities; Mr. Jaworski
said he would be versatile, and that it would have to be the Supervisor. There was
discussion on whether the position would be salaried or not, and what the duties
of such a man would be, what part of each day would be spent on each department,
priorities, etc., in other words a job description was needed.
Mr. Zelinka moved to send this to the Personnel Commission for study and have them
give a recommendation at the next Council Meeting (July IOth). Seconded by Mr.
Jaworski. Carried. It was felt that Mr. Backlin ought to attend this Personnel
Commission meeting.
Mr. Marier reported on the June 21st P &Z meeting. Bill Leonard had requested the
Village extend 64th st. It was felt he wanted to develop this and for his own
benefit. He was told that the neighbors would have to share in the cost of building
this road; one neighbor didn't want it. The P &Z denied this request.
Mr. Marier noted that the Chomonix South plat request was delayed.
Mr. Marier stated that Mrs. Youngbauer's request for a variance was not heard
beacuse no one was present, and that they will have to make a re= application.
Mr. Marier stated that Ken Rehbein's request for a 50'x 112' pole bare on commercial
property was heard. This would be attached to the main building for a horse shelter.
The P &Z had suggested granting him a variance. Mr. Marier moved to grant a variance
for a pole barn to Ken Rehbein on the following described property: W 3/4 of NW4 of
NW; of Section 5, T.31, R. 22, Anoka County, Minnesota. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski.
Carried.
Mr. Youngbauer, in the audience, stated that they were never informed that they must
be at the P &Z hearing or when it was. Members checked the minutes of the May 22nd
meeting and read the part stating that the hearing was set before the P &Z on June
21st. Mrs. Youngbauer said that she was never told she had to appear. Mr. Youngbauer
asked when they could be put on the agenda again. Council set the hearing at 9 P.M.
before the P &Z on July 19th and the same time at the following Council meeting
on July 24th. Mr. Bohjanen noted that it was general procedure that applicants for
a variance attend the P &Z meeting.
Mr. Marier noted that the Morehouses had not appeared before the P &Z on their request
to extend 79th St. , and moved that we delay the Morehouse matter until they re -apply
on the P &Z agenda. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried.
Mr. Marier stated that Gilbert Menveld did not show up at the P &Z meeting either,•and
moved that we send a letter to him and tell him to make another application to be ona
new schedule. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried.
6/26/72
Mr. Marier reported that Floyd Miller had made two requests to vary Ord. No. 21A, both
parcels being Tess than 22 acres. The P &Z had recommended granting a variance on
Parcel A. Marier moved to grant Floyd Miller a varianct to Ord. 21A on the following
Parcel A, described as: That part of the Northwest Quarter (NWµ) of the Southwest
Quarter (SWµ) of Section 3, Town 31, Range 22, Anoka County, Minnesota described as

thence north at a right angle 209.0 feet; thence west at aright angle 414.0 feet to
the point of beginning. Subject to Rondeau Lake Road.
Mr. Jaworski asked if the parcel was iwthout buildings. Mr. Marier said yes. Seconded
by Mr. Jaworski. Carried.
Mr. Marier stated that Parcel B. Was to be given by Mr. Miller to his son at no cost,
and that he had requested 120' frontage. The P &Z felt Mr. Miller should comply with
the ordinance and made the parcel 150' in width. Mr. Miller had agreed.
Mr. Marier moved to grant a variance to Ordiance 21A to Floyd Miller on Parcel B,
described as follows:
That part of the Northwest Quarter (NWµ) of the Southwest Quarter, (SWµ)
of section 3, Town 31, Range 22, Anoka County, Minnesota described as

Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried. Mr. Miller noted that the drawings members
had were only preliminary drafts, and that the final survey copies would be sent
to the office when completed.
Mr. Marier reported that Forrest Tagg's request of varying the sign code had been
put off to the Next P &Z meeting. It was noted that this might be a hardship case.
The Skelly 100' sign was denied. Mr. Jaworski asked if they are going to review
that with Mr. Tagg; Mr. Marier said No, and mentioned that the 100' signs would
hardly enhance the Village. Also, if we did give Tagg a 100' sign, Skelly would
comeback for one.
Mr. Marier moved to deny the Skelly Oil request for a 100' sign. Seconded by Mr.
Jaworski. The Mayor noted that some pine trees along the freeway had been cut
down. Vote: Jaworski, No; Marier, Yes, Zelinka, No; Bohjanen, No. Motion failed.
Mr. Jaworski moved, at the Mayor's request, to send the Skelly sign request back to
the P &Z for study in conjunction with the Tagg sign. Seconded by Mr. Zelinka.
Carried.
Walter A. Gessler, Jr. age 10, requested the Council's permission to raise two hogs
to sell. He had obtained written approval from six neighbors to raise the pigs on
his parent's 6 acre lot at 2002 Main Street. After some discussion, Mr. Zelinka
moved that we allow Walter Gessler, Jr., to have two hogs, to be grain fed, and to
waive the requirements of a variance to Section 4.08 of Ord. No. 56 in this case.
Seconded by Mr.Jaworski. Carried. The permission slips will be kept on file.
Ken Rehbein noted that it was too bad that the Council can't move as ,fast on
other matters.
6/26/72
Mr. Zelinka had no report since he had not met with either of his commissions.
He did, however, read the letter from Art Hawkins regarding the possibility of the
Village declaring the Rice Lake Heron Rookery as open space. Mr. Bohjanen asked
if the areamentioned on the dredging permit given to Jandric when they first
started work in that area didn't fit in with the area in concern. Mr. Jaworski
said No, that the golf course is between the two areas; that it was there as a
buffer zone to keep development away from the rookery.
Mr. Marier thought the Enviromental Commission's point well taken, but said he would
like to refer it back to the open space concept of the Village, and that it be put on
the map which was drawn up. He felt a letter should be directed to the Park Board and
Enviromental Commission asking them to tie this in with the Open Space Concept; this
to be done separately in each group, who would then ahve a joint meeting on the subject.
He noted that the P &Z plans a special meeting on the open space after receiving input
from the other two boards. Mr. Marier moved to send a letter to both Board Chairman
on the above. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried.
Mr. Locher repo -ted that he had drawn out areas shwoing the burning ban, noting that
the areas w -re quite well defined with the exception of one, No. 7 -in the PCA's
letter. He had used his own judgement on this one; as the home owner had a large farm,
he had included the whole acreage in the ban area. He noted that about 4 1/3 sections
were included totally. He read the proposed ordinance which he had drafted at the time
Ham Lake adopted theirs.
There was some discussion; additions were made to the ordinance. Mr. Marier moved
to make Bill E- lingsen (Weed Inspector ) the Deputy Fire Marshall, with his
concurrence. Seconded by Mr. Zelinka. Carried.
Mr. Marier moved to pass new Ordinance No. 59 on burning. Seconded by Mr.
Jaworski. Carried. Mr. Locher stated it would be published this week.
Mr. Locher noted that he had corrected the legal on Miller's Parcel B. to what
the P &Z wanted, and that new surveys would be provided.
Mr. Locher reported receiving a continuation certificate of the bond for sewer work
for Morris B. Carlson Trenching, this to be put on file.
Mr. Locher repo -ted receipt of $6.00 refund on the premium for the workmen's
compensation insurance from LeMieu- Johnson Agency, noting that it was unusual to
get such a refund.
Mr. Locher reported that Glenn Rehbein had provided duplicate bonds in the amount
of $40,978.00 for street work in Shenandoah, which was the amount listed by the
Engineer in the June 12th minutes. He commented that the bonding company, Argonaut
Insurance Company, was one of the largest such companies in the world. The papers
were in order. Mr. Marier moved to accept the bonds submitted by Glenn Rehbein.
Seconded by Mr. Zelinka. Carried.
Mr. Marier asked Mr. Locher if we had gotten the certification of our sign ordinance.
Mr. Locher said he had sent it in but had not received an answer to either his letter
or phone cal Is; however, it is now in the correct office. Mr. Jaworski noted that
St. Joseph's Church had been levied at $10 fee for their sign on Lake Drive and Elm St.
and if the State is going to charge for signs which we issue permits for, people will
be charged double. Mr. Locher commented that it was not double taxation as the fees
went to separate entities. Mr. Zelinka stated that the State is charging fees if
the signs are within 5' of their right -of -way, and that they are insisting that he
remove the 3 sign posts he has even though he is going to use the posts for a kiddie
swing. Mr. Locher will check into the fees.
6/26/72
291
Mr. Jaworski reported that he had been checking with the people on Orange and Maple
streets, and that they are agreeable to signing easements for roadways. Mr.Jaworski
moved to have Mr. Locher draw up easements for right -of -way of 60' on Maple and Orange
Streets. Seconded by Mr. Zelinka. Carried.
Clerk asked Mr. Locher if the wage and price controls for municipalities under
10,000 population were actually off, and if we could go ahead with our proposed fee
increases for special assessment searches and plumbing permits. Mr. Locher stated
Yes. It was decided that these items would be put on the agenda for the next meeting.
Mr. Bohjanen reported that he had contacted the County to see who was in charge of
purchasing, and found that the Administrator, Bernie Steffen, is handling this matter.
A list of materials we can purchase at County prices will be sent immediately.
Mr. Bohjanen reported that he had talked to the County Health Dent. on the dumping
by both Mr. Wilson and Skyline Auto Body. A letter has been written to each after
an investigation was made; we will receive copies. Each was told to cease dumping
and to cover the fill with dirt; this will also be done at the Blue Heron.
Mr. Bohjanen asked the Council's feelings on procedure of an item which has been
approved for purchase by the Council: is it necessary that a requisition for such
item come before the Council for approval again before the purchase order is made
out? He felt that it was not. Mr. Jaworski thought that a requisition and purchase
order should be made out and be attached to the bill for signing when the bill is
audited. Mr. Bohjanen, said the requisition could be marked as having been approved at
the previous meeting.
Mr. Bohjanen commented on a bill received for work on the air conditioner in the
Clerk's office, saying that he had told the Clerk to have it fixed, since he thought
the guarantee was still good; however, it was not since we received a bill. Clerk stated
that the air conditioner had stopped working last fall, and that she had called Mattson
in November to have it fixed; they had talked to Johnson Plumbing, who were too busy
putting in furnances to work on air conditioners. Nothing was done, and she felt that
the company should stand good as the complaint was made under the guarantee. Mr.
Bohjanen thought the bill should go bac k to the general contractor with ,a ;etter
of explanation.
Mr. Bohjanen asked Mary Myhre if he had got more bids for towing and was told No.
Mr. Bohjanen read the one bid which was received from Bill's Auto Repair on Orange
St., and stated he felt we whould au *horize him to do the towing. Mr. Jaworski
wondered if the business was in a commercial area; there was some discussion, but no
decision.
Clerk was asked to read a letter received from Forest Lake regarding the Community
Services Director which is to be hired by the School District. An additional $10.000
is to be raised over the $5000 state grant for his salary and expenses. This will be
discussed at a meeting on July 6th at the new Senior High building. It was decided
that Mr. Cardinal, as Liaison to the Park Board, and Mr. Marier should attend. Mr.
Jaworski stated he planned to go if a previous engagement allowed him time. Clerk
was asked to call the County auditor's office for a breakdown of the assessed
valuation in the 831 area of Lino Lakes.
Mr. Bohjanen stated that he had talked to Jerry Boyd, Plumbing Inspector, tonight
about a problem arising out of building and sewer permits issued by the office to Lyle
Krueger (while the Clerk was on vacation) before the acting Deputy Clerk was informed
that a percolation test was first necessary. He asked if the sewer permit could be
revoked. Mr. Locher suggested that a red tag be issued until Lyle Krueger gets a
percolation test, or else issue a citation if he doesn't do so within 14 days.
292
6/26/72
The Clerk was asked to call Mr. Boyd to issue a red tag to Mr. Krueger. Mr. Bohjanen
commented that the area the house is in looks like it needs a perc test as recommended
by the plumbing inspector.
Mr. Bohjanen said he wanted to recommend to the Clerk that anything we do not finish
acting on should appear on succeeding agendas until it is acted on, noting that this
will make the agenda longer, but it is necessary to remind members of such matters;
for instance the snowmobile ordinance, which is to come un August. Members disagreed,
feeling that this would make the agenda too long, and that a tickle file would suffice.
Mr. Bohjanen asked if everyonw got copies of the Metro reports and was told Yes by old
members. Clerk said she would cease making copies of such correspondence for members.
Mr. Bohjanen read three notices of Metro Council meetings coming up, noting that he
would like members to attend these if they are available. Mr. Zelinka's name will be
given to Metro Council offices so he can receive this material also.
The Mayor had received a questionaire from the U Of M Agricultural Extension Service,
Anoka County Dept., regarding ordinances on shad trees and their diseases. Clerk
read each question: all answers were "NO'. This will be typed up and sent in.
The Metro Sewer Board west Regulations were on the agenda again, having been tabled
several times. There was considerable discussion on this, with it being suggested that the
Engineer give us a report on it, that Mr. Robbins come out and explain it as he suggested
in his cover letter, that we write a letter to the Metro Sewer Board that we are willing
to adopt any regulations at such time as we have sewage disposal facilities.
Mr. Locher stated that this seems similar to the highway rules, that it is State law
and whether we adopt it or not is immaterial. He thought it would be wise to get
someone out to discuss this with us. The Clerk was asked to call Mr. Gotwald on this
and have him report at the next meeting.
Clerk asked if the Council wished her to list specific items under each official on
which they had been asked to report and was told No.

Mr. Bohjanen noted that we have talked a lot about having meetings with the Jandric
people on such items as meters, bookkeeping, etc. and suggested that we have a special
meeting on all of these items connected with taking over the Jandric systems so that we
will be ready when we do take them over. We will also get a complete cost breakdwon from
the engineer. He suggested having the Engineer, Attorney, Fiscal Agent and Plumbing Inspector
at such a meeting.
It was noted that the Engineer could give us the specifics of the completion of the systems
at the next meeting. Mr. Jaworski noted that the sewer was almost done. Mr. Marier asked if the
roads were done; Mr. Jaworski said that the roads are not the contractor's (Rehbein's)
responsibility, but that the work on them was under a separate bond held for Jandric. Mr.
Marier stated that the roads must be done to see if the sewer will stand up under the
activity required to get them completed; this must be done before we accept the system.
Mr. Marier felt we could give acceptance of the lay -out of the system, but not accept the
total system; it might cave in under the road construction, and if so, would be contractor's
responsibility to fix. Mr. Jaworski didn't know if we could do this legally. Mr. Locher
stated that the sewer construction was subject to the Engineer's approval as to whether
the contractor complied with the specifics; it is entirely his responsibility.
Mr. Bohjanen said we would wait for the Engineer's report first and then set up a
special meeting later.
6/26/72

Mr. Marier asked Mr. Locher if the agreements submitted by Brede, Inc. were in order,
regarding easements to come in from the East to service their sign (no. 20). Mr. Locher
said that the agreements were not for easements, but for access to the corner of Lot
19, Block 3, Lakeview Woodlands, so that they could enter for servicing the sign. Mr. Marier
moved that we issue Sign Permit (renewal) Sign #20 to Brede Inc., and that these agree-
ments be attached to the permit. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried.
Mr. Marier noted thatthe State Building code goes into effect July 1st, and read
from a newspaper article, mentioning that the State Code does not deal with local
zoning laws, that we can regulate the size of structures, setbacks and lot size.
Clerk read a note from the Building Inspector which stated that he had inspected
Jerry Rosengren's house and found the work to be done.
Dan Heimer, from the Northwest Saddle Club, came forward to present a petition signed
by 24 neighbors who had no objection to the .Trailer on the Club property which was
used by caretakers. Mr. Heimer said that the Club was willing to comply with the request
to remove the trailer by July lst, but that they did not wish to do so. The Directors
had not yet decided what to do in regards to building a permanent structure, etc.,
but Mr. Heimer thought they would have something completed within a year. They would
like to leave the area in the rough. Mr. Heimer reiterated many reasons why they
didn't want to move the trailer. Dan Ramber, President of the Club, and Ken Rehbein,
also offered many comments.
Council members, in particular Mr. Marier, felt that we had an agreement to remove
the trailer and present plans for something permanent, and that we should abide by the
ordinances.
After lengthly discussion, Mr. Marier moved to grant the Northwest Saddle Club 30 more
days to submit a print (for a building), before the Council, that in that time a
percolation test must be taken and a building permit application made, and that building
must be started within the first 30 days after the permit is granted, and construction
finished within 60 days after that; if this is not done the trailer must go. Seconded
by Mr. Jaworski. Carried. Mr. Heimer and Mr. Ramburg were willing to go along with
this.
The Clerk read the police reports for May.
Applications for beer and-dance licenses were passed aground for inspection.
Mr. Jaworski asked if the Council would agree to having Mr. Hagen tear down the Old
Ford truck to see if the problem is that the rings didn't seat when they were put in.
Mr. Hagen had agreed that if the problem were something other than the rings he would
do the labor for nothing, but if it was the rings, then he should be reimbursed for
his time, as it was not his fault that the rings didn't seat as the rings used were
not the ones which he had recommended. Mr. Marier advised that he should put in a
requisition to do the work.
Mr. Zelinka moved to approve the applications for 3.2 beer licenses for the following:
Off -sale only - Monica Cichy, Annie Ross, Henry J. Speiser, Nathe Brothers, Inc.,; on
and Off sale - John Quinlan and Luther LeVesseur. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried.
Mr. Zelinka moved to accept dance license applications from the following: Stanley E.
Thayer, Lawrence Cichy, Nathe Brothers, Inc., and John Quinlan. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski.
Carried.
Mr. Marier moved to accept the application for a sewer license from Mr. Thomas Bowler,
DBA Bowler Co., Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried.
6/26/72
Mr. Marier moved that we do not act on the applications for sewer licenses from
Frank Husnik and William Corcoran until the proper bonds and insurance certificates
are attached. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried.
The requisitions were inspected. Mr. Marier questioned requisition No. 77,
submitted for the second time, on mechanics tools, feeling that we have two mechanics
that we pay to do the work and these are not mechanic -type tools. A cheaper set of
sockets would suffice. He felt $500 is too much to supply mechanics who should have
their own tools; it was unreasonable.
Mr. Marier moved to accept the requisitions withholding No. 77. Seconded by Mr.
Bohjanen. Carried. Mr. Bohjanen said he would like to have Mr. Jaworski check with
the County and see if they have tools which we could obtain at a better price. Mr.
Marier felt Craftsman tools would do.
Mr. Jaworski moved to approve bills #4544 through #4569, and payroll checks #1754
to #1777. Seconded by Mr. Marier. Carried. Mr. Marier noted that we have two bills
with no requisitions, which was better, but there should be none.
Mr. Bohjanen explained the circumstances for the $3.13 item to fix the transmission
in one of the police cars.
Mr. Jaworski moved to adjourn at 11:58 P. M. Seconded by Mr. Marier. Carried.
