The special hearing for rezoning and special use permits for Kenneth Rehbein and Floyd Miller was called to order at 8:03 p.m. on September 23, 1968 by Mayor L'Allier with all Council members present. The first order of business was in regards to Mr. Ken Rehbein's request for reson- ing of 30 acres at Fourth and Pine from residential to commercial. The affidavits of publishing and posting of notices of the hearings were shown. The portion of the Planning and Zoning Commission minutes regarding their approval of Mr. Rehbein's request was read. There was no discussion from the audience on either his request for rezoning or a special use permit for an indoor arena. Mr. Cardinal then moved that Ordinance No. 6K be adopted, setting forth the rezon- ing from residential to commercial use of the following property: The West three - fourths of the Northwest one - quarter of the Northwest One- quarter Of 3/4 of NW 1/4 of NW 1/4) of Section Five (5), Township Thirty -one (31) Range Twenty -two (22), Anoka County, Minnesota belonging to Mr. Ken Rehbein, and that he be granted a special use permit to con- struct, maintain and operate, according to law, a riding stable and horse show arena, and necessary structures and improvements incident thereto on said property. Seconded by Mr. Bohjanen. Carried unanimously. Upon being asked how soon he would start building, Mr. Rehbein produced drawings showing a pole -type building about 80 by 250 feet to be constructed east of his house 7S between Pine Street and the outdoor arena. W. Rehbein introduced a petition signed by several neighboring land owners who stated they had no objections to the rezoning. He was then instructed to see the Building Inspector for a building permit. 11/ The matter of a special use permit for W. Floyd Miller to construct a building to be used as a base of operations for his cabinet-making crew was taken up. Affidavits of posting were shown and the portion of minutes of the Planning and Zoning Commission pertaining to W. Miller were read. No objections were raised from the audience. Mr. Cardinal thus moved to give Mr. Floyd Miller a special use permit to constuct maintain and operate, according to law, an office building, garage, and cabinet shop, and necessary structures and improvements incident thereto on the residential lands situated in the Village of Lino Lakes, Anoka County, Minnesota and which are described as follows: That part of the NW 1/4 of the SW 1/4 of Section 3, T 31, R 22, Anoka County Minnesota described as follows: Commencing at the Southwesterly corner of said NW 1/4 of SW 1/4, a distance of 348.0 feet; thence North at a right angle, 66.0 feet to the actual point of beginning; thence con- tinuing North on said line extneded, a distance of 208.71 feet; thence easterly, at a right angle, a distance of 208.71 feet; thence southerly at a right angle, a distance of 208.71 feet to the point of beginning,M(bottom) with the stipulation that the cabinets produced in this building be used only in the houses which W. Miller constructs and not for retail sale. Seconded by Mr. • Bohjanen. Carried unanimously. Mr. Jaworski moved to adjourn at 8:13 p.m.; seconded by W. Bohjanen. Carried. The regular Council meeting was then called to order at 8:13 p.m. by Mayor L'Allier, all members being present. The minutes of the September 9 meeting were read. Mr. Bohjanen moved to accept the minutes as corrected. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried. The affidavits of publication of ordinances No. 45 and 46 were shown. The Clerk was instructed to send Mr. Dabasi of Forest Lake Taxi a copy of Ordinance No. 45 and invite him back. The Clerk stated that the outstanding fees for rezoning by Northwest Saddle Club had now been paid. Also, a notice from the Social Security office of a second chance for PERA members to join up with Social Security had been received and posted. W. L'Allier annnounced several meetings including that of the Anoka County Association of Municipalities on September 25 at Columbia Heights at which County Administrator, Mr. Bernard Steffen was to speak on the progress of county roads. The next police meeting will be on October 7th. After the second budget meeting on September 26, the Council will discuss the feasibility of hiring a full-time man. The Park Board minutes were read. W. Jaworski mentioned that the Park Board would like to purchase a slide for some $770.00 from the same company as they purchased II/the Buck-abouts, to be put in Sunrise Park. W. Jaworski moved that we purchase the Hickory Dickory Dock slide for Sunrise Park. Seconded by W. Bohjanen. Carried. (*legal con't.) together with an easement for roadway purposes over the southerly 66 feet of the westerly 557.0 feet of said NW 1/4 of SW 1/4. i 1 1 79 Mr. Jaworski then asked the Council what they thought of buying a one -acre lot (possibly getting a donation) to equip for a small park, in the area of Orange and Maple Streets. The cost of equipping one of these with a swing, slide, and two Saddlemates plus a merzy.go -round would run about $800.00. Mr. Bohjanen men- tioned that if the 30 acres on Main Street are purchased there would be recreational area there, but he thought it should be looked into. Mr. L'Allier thought that we could look into the matter in conjunction with Centerville and perhaps select three or four sites. The minutes of the September 18 Planning and Zoning meeting were read. Mr. Cardinal asked Mr. Locher about a request of Mr. Cecil LaMotte concerning a roadway across St. Paul Waterworks property south of Centerville Lake. Mr. LaMotte wished a var- iance to build a house on Lot 1, Block 1, of LaMott's Second Additon which is situated on the end of a roadway, a portion of which was accepted by Lino Lakes. He plans to put in blacktop streets to be assessed to the landowners. Mr. Locher stated that the !quest seemed in order. Copies of the warranty deed and an agreement with the purchaser were read. Mr. Cardinal then moved to grant a variancelto Mr. Cecil LaMotte for Lot 1, Block; 1, of LaMotte's Second Addition, providing that Mr. LaMotte supplies a copy of the purchaser's agreement and copy of the plat map to be attached to the minutes. Sec - onded by Mr. Jaworski. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Cardinal stated that an option had been signed with Mr. William Waldoch for a fee of $100.00 which will hold the property until December 31, 1969. Terms of the purchase would be $1000.00 down and payment of $1200.00 per year at five per cent interest. Mr. L'Allier instructed the Clerk to send a letter to Mr. Waldoch thank- ing him for his generous terms for the Village. He also thanked Mr. Locher and Mr. Cardinal for their good work in securing the option so quickly. After some discussion of Mr. Dick Olson's trailer and basement Mr. Cardinal moved to authorize Mr. Locher to write to Dick Olson informing him that he cannot live in the basement without a permit and to invite him to come before the Council for a permit, stating his intentions and giving a time limit until the house can be com- pleted. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried. It was stated that Mrs. Rose LeTourneau had moved in a garage without a permit. Mr. Dupre was instructed to inspect said garage before the next meeting The scheduled meeting between the Council and the Planning and Zoning Board was reset for October lat 8 p.m. for the continuation of the zoning map work. The addition of hard -core youths to the Youth Center was discussed. Mr. L'Allier read from the Corrections Commissioner's report the definitions of "hard- core" and Youthful offenders ". He also stated that the capacity of the "B" building for youth - ful offenders was only 50 due to addition of recreational facilities in the building but that 65 persons were in as of September 16th. After considerable discussion Mr. Bohjanen moved to send a letter to the Appropriations Committee, Gary Flakne., chairman, giving them the costs we have sustained due to break -outs from the Youth Treatment Center with copies to Senator Tom Greig and Gov- ernor LeVander. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried. Mr. L'Allier then moved to send a letter to Corrections Commissionep Keve objecting to the over - populating by 15 people of the "B" Building at the Youth Center, since the original capacity was 75, but had been reduced to 50 due to the addition of 80 recreational facilities in one wing, and the population as of September 16 was 65 persons. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried. Copy to be sent to Dr. Gelbman, Director of the Youth Center. The "Slow Children" signs had been put up on Linda Street. There were com- plaints on the 30 mph limit. Mr. Rosengren mentioned that the taxes on the concrete garage on Sunrise would not be delinquent until next year and that perhaps we should hold off on demolition. The Clerk was instructed to check the minutes to see what had been done concerning this for the next meeting. Mr. Rosengren stated that the telephone company had damaged a culvert on Fourth Avenue and that he will call them about it. The prime and seal work was finished on Bald Eagle Boulevard, Rolling Hills Drive and Aqua Lane, but the rain had slowed work on West Rondeau Lake Road. The driveways in the Lakeview area will be fixed up this week. M. Myhre reported that he had not found the horses reported to be on Hodgson Road opposite Birch Street, but there were some down further in a pasture on several acres; therefore nothing is to be done. Mr. Rosengren reported that they had tried out the tractor and will return it; however, the packer will be purchased with Columbus Township. No shooting signs were put up in the area of Holly, 12th, and Birch Street. He asked the Clerk to send revised Village maps to the utility companies after Mr. Gotwald completes them for marking the location of buried cables. Mr. Bohjanen mentioned the 20 mph limit on North Road. Apparently that limit must have been put up by Circle Pines as Commissioner Burman knows of no County action taken to reduce the limit. Mr. Rosengren mentioned that the trouble with the 20 mph signs is having no authority to enforce the limit. 1 Mr. L'Allier mentioned that the County had taken over the East service road of 35E from the County line to Highway 14. A discussion ensued on the roadwork being done on Birch Street east of Centerville Road. Since one landowner would not donate an easement but wished to be paid, the work could not go forward, as the others wanted to be paid also. Mr. Pete Nadeau complained about the quality of work and the inconsistency of dirt moving by the County but said he wanted the work completed as soon as possible and wanted the Council to push the County on this. After discussion and complaints from residents, Mr. L'Allier moved that a letter be sent to Commissioner Burman stating that we had been visited by residents of Birch Street East of Centerville Road who all wished to see the work on Birch Street done as soon as possible and to accomplish this would gladly donate the easements even though one resisting party wished to be paid; they therefore request that the County purchase said easement from Mr. Pratcher and complete the road. Copies of the letter are to be sent to all adjoining property owners and a carbon copy to Mr. Lundheim. Mr. Locher stated that he had heard from Lindberg Construction which acknowledged that 64th had been built too high but they had no wish to fix it. The letter will be sent to Mr. Gotwald to hash out with Lindberg. We will do the work and charge them for it if necessary. The Building Inspector mentioned a house in the 6900 block on Lakeview Drive owned by Allen Real Estate Company of Anoka which has a caved in cesspool, a broken -down fence and a garage in need of paint. Mr. Locher will call. 81 Mr. Dupre also asked whether he would be reimbursed for pay if he has to go to court. The consensus of the Council was that he should be reimbursed. The Building Inspector will check on the problem at Otter Lake this week. Mr. L'Allier mentioned that the Minneapolis Waterworks Department was starting condemnation procedings against NSSSD on their Fridley property. He then moved that the Council go on record with a resolution indicating that we oppose the condemnation proceedings by the Minneapolis Waterworks Department against NSSSD. Seconded by Mr. Bohjanen. Carried. There was some discussion on this. The question of transferring excess funds out of Debt Redemption came up again. Mr. Jaworski moved to transfer $6,200.00, of the $16,200.00 sales tax money re- ceived by Roads and Bridges into the General Fund leaving $10,000.00 as intended at the budget meeting. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried unanimously. Mr. Cardinal moved to authorize Mr. Gotwald to collect data for the overlays on maps being prepared by the Planning and Zoning Board and the Council.; also to ask him to the meeting on October first. Seconded by lam. Jaworski. Carried. Mr. Herb Anderson of Fuel Economy Engineering had been called by Mr. Gotwald to give us an egtimate on a Village Hall building. W. Anderson showed the type of steel construction and told of many construction details, estimating that the cost would run between $07 and $8 per foot if one -third of the area were used for office and meeting room space; however the cost would rise if more area is used for that purpose or if more plush materials were used. The maximum would probably be $10 per square foot. He answered many questions and thanked by the Mayor for coming. Mr. Cardinal moved to pay the bills as audited. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried. The motion to adjourn at 11 :10 p.m. was made by Mr. Bohjanen and seconded by Mr. Rosengren.

Mr. Hill stated that transfers to even out the funds could be made at the end of the year to show them all in the black if possible. It was decided to pay half of the fees for Schiffsky and Hoekstra until the County draw in December when they could be paid in full. The estimated evaluation of the Village for 1969 was set at $1 million. Mr. Hill later talked with the County Auditor who estimated that the evaluation would be as high as $1,060,000.00. Mr. L'Allier suggested hiring a police administrator in 1969 who would do all of thepeper work and would fill in on emergencies and on occasion when one of the constables was on vacation. The suggested salary was $200.00 per month. There was some discussion on raising the Clerk's salary as Mr. L'Allier wanted 1 1
