The regular meeting of the Lino Lakes Village Council held on November 12, 1968
was called to order at 8:18 p.m. by Mayor L'Allier with all members present
except Mr. Jaworski.
Mr. Cardinal moved to accept the minutes of the regular October 28, 1968
meeting as corrected. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried.
Mr. Bohjanen moved to accept the minutes of the special meeting held on Nov-
ember 6, 1968 as read. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried.
Mr. William Busch, representing Emil Jandric, presented a revised plat map of Lakes
Addition #1, specifying all changes made to comply with the Engineer's list.
There was some discussion on the matter of park dedication. The amount of net land
in the plat is 30 acres, thus the amount specified by ordinance would. be only three a
acres. Mr. Jandric proposed cash in lieu of the land and would make a large park
later on in the development. The Council preferred, however, that the amount of
three acres be held in abeyance until a park is developed. They also discussed the
possibility of a public landing on Seventh Avenue at the culvert site.
Mr. Busch stated that they thought it best to handle the sewage and water problem
with the use of private wells and septic tank systems. There are to be no base-
ments in the immediate vicinity of the lake, perhaps some on high ground. The
material to fill the low lots will come from the high ground. The material to
fill the low lots will come from the high ground and from the lake bottom (90%
sand). All utility lines will be buried.
Mr. Scherer mentioned that Mr. Joe Karth had recommended all new developments have
central sewage systems rather than individual.
There was also much discussion on the use of cul-de-sacs. The revised plat map
had eliminated the one on "Boulevard B", but more are planned for the development.
Lots sell better on a cul-de-sac but such places create problems in snow removal,
etc. They also discussed lots, sewers, and ownership for the townhouse units.
Definite locations for these must be given before any permits are issued. Two jogs
in the northernleg of the plat are to be used as access to the golf course.
Mr. Locher read an Attorney General's opinion that only one hearing is necessary on
a plat at the Village's option as to preliminary or final.
Mr. Cardinal then moved to accept the corrected preliminary plat for Lakes Addition
#1 as submitted by Emil Jandric's U. S. Lakes Development Company having the following
legal description: t
Apar
Being a part of the SE 1/4 of the NE 1/4(of the SE 1/4, all in Section 20;
part of the West 1/2 of Section 21; all being in Township 31, Range 22,
Anoka County, Minnesota.
Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried unanimously. It was thought that the hearing for
the final plat could be held in January. Mr. Busch was asked to have a tracing of
the final plat ready when he appears to ask for the hearing. This acceptance in no
way implies that permits for models can be issued.
The Clerk mentioned a complaint from a Mr. Swanson, real estate agent trying to sell
the Zeman home on the end of Baldwin Lake Road in that there is at least one yard
full of junk along the road. Wr. Swanson felt this was hurting his chances of a
sale and asked that we remedy the situation. The Clerk was asked to check with Mr.
Raymond on this.

The fees for Floyd Miller's special use permit had been received; however the legal
description is still forth coming; the Clerk will contact Mr. Miller.
Balances in the vaious funds were read. Mr. L'Allier stated that Mr. Hill had indicated
that having deficit balances in the funds posed no problem and was acceptable in practice.
Mr. Locher said that transfers could be made at the end of the year and that this posed
no legal problems.
Mr. Locher explained the Washington County District Court decision to reduce the $3500
debt owing on the judicial ditch since 1959 to an amount of $1200 payable before Decem-
ber 1968, Mr. L'Allier commended Mr. Locher on his work in the case for getting such
an equitable solution. Mr. Rosengren moved to adopt a resolution that Lino Lakes pay
the amount of $1200 to the Treasurer of Anoka County to complete the transaction.
Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried.
Mr. Rosengren then moved to adopt a resolution that any excess funds in the Judicial
Ditch Fund be transferred into the General Fund and that the Ditch Fund be removed from
the books. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried.
The Clerk was requested and received permission to keep a

Mr. Bohjanen stated that the Rice Creek Watershed Resolution discussion should be held
off until the next meeting in order to give the Rice Creek Watershed Association time to
study it.
Mr. Rosengren stated that the crew had been putting up snowfence and doing routine main-
tenance. The slide had been put up in Sunrise Park. He asked about issuing permits for
various construction work done in the Village such as plumbing and wiring. He will
check with the League to see if they have any model ordinances on licenses for professional
contractors. Mr. Gotwald suggested that it was time that the building code be overhauled;
he thought that the Planning and Zoning Board could check on the codes in Blaine and
Shoreview. Mr. L'Allier asked whether we could adopt new codes by reference. Mr. Locher
stated that Ordinance Number 6 had been written so that this was possible. Mr. Gotwald
will check on a copy of the National Building Association code.
Mr. Rosengren suggested that Lino Lakes purchase a good used pick-up as the one in use is
badly rusted out. The utility box could be switched. He would like a 4-wheel drive
vehicle by the first of the year. Mr. Rosengren stated that work on 64th is very doubtful
this fall.
Mr. Locher discussed the lots (Lots 2 and 3, Block 4, Lexington-Park Lakeview) which were
having drainage problems. Lot 2 became tax-forfeit on September 2, 1968. Mr. Gotwald
suggested studying the situation carefully before doing any digging so that more problems
aren't created. He will check.
Mr. Locher mentioned that since more than 800 voters had gone to the polls at the election
it will be necessary to install voter registration next year. The Clerk will check with
Mrs. Kuderling of the League for samples of necessary supplies and invite her back.
Mr. Bohjanen will check with the Lexington Fire Department about burning the wrecked
house on Elm Street.

Mr. L'Allier gave the details on the resolution adopted by the Anoka Association
of Municipalities regarding the proposed airport. There was much discussion of
possible sites in Wisconsin and South of the Twin Cities; Mr. L'Allier thought it was III
was time for Lino Lakes to take a stand on its preference for a site.
Mr. L'Allier then moved that Lino Lakes adopt the Association's resolution with
the change in the last paragraph to read " a site north of the Ham Lake site but
in Anoka County." Seconded by Mr. Bohjanen. Vote: L'Allier and Bohjanen aye;
Rosengren and Cardinal no. Failed.

the last paragraph to read "a site in Anoka County'. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal.

Mr. L'Allier then moved that Lino Lakes adopt the Association's resolution with
appropriate name changes and the change in the last paragraph to read "a site
in the northeran one-half of Anoka County." Seconded by Mr. Bohjanen. Carried
unanimously. (A copy to be attached.)
Mr. L'Allier passed around copies of proposed changes in Ordinance No. 20, Rule
26. These will be discussed at the next meeting. A copy will be sent to Mr.
Jaworski to study.

per month and one hour on Tuesday evenings (7 to 8 p.m.) with pay to be $183.33
