page 2 Joint Meeting, Lake Elmo City Council and Lake Elmo PZC, Oct. 11, 1977 L. Anderson, cont'd.--are brought into line as far as a valid permit is applied for and the plans do show up validable, then he will get a permit. But I had a heck of a time pinning him down. First he wanted a garage as part of the house -then he wanted to detach it -then he wanted an accessory down here and I told him no way. Well he says I want to store my boat- and I said by the way is that going to be a commercial enterprise or is that just a private hobby. Well he said strictly private. Well then I'd suspect that you'd sign a letter stating so to allay any fears that some of the neighbors might have and I don't think that's unreasonable in the approach. So, so far the residents down there checked out his references, found out he's been kicked out of Afton according to the sheriffs deputy. That's heresa_y tho. Raleigh --I think the significant thing is he brought this junk in without a permit whether it meets the code or not. If you're not going to have a continual problem we should jump on him hard now. I think you should get into Ray right away -sign a complaint -take him into court and then we can consider it after that. That will be taken care of tomorrow. Bldg. Insp., John Mueller, suggested to the council that they consider that the position of bldg. insp. in this village should be, very shortly, a full time occupation. Planning Assistance Guide Application -Tom Loucks, explained the Community Grant Application (Copy on file in city office) Grant amounts requested -Community Comprehensive Planning Fund Entitlement $6,252..00 and Special Planning Problems Funds Requested $4,000.00 for a total of $10,252..00. Mayor Armstrong offered Resolution R77-10 requesting Planning Assistance Funds. 2nd by Councilman Pott. Carried 5-0. I94 Frontage Roads --Engineer Noyes and Adm. Assistant Whittaker explained. Council and PZC discussed all of the possible options. The highway department, per Mr. Whittaker, would be making a cost study at their expense, of the attached detached roads suggested. An informational meeting will be scheduled at some later date at which citizens from each affected section would be invited to attend to see how the roads would affect them personally. Any decision on what roads the city is interested in will be withheld until cost information is available, early in 1978. Recess at 6:30 p.m. Reconvened at 7:35 p.m. Planning Proposals --Since two planners had requested more time, Mr.Whittaker allowed time up to October 18. Planned to ask council to review these between 5:00 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Midwest Planning, Barton Ashman, Gunnar Isberg, Wehrman Chapman, Charlie Tooker and Tom Loucks will probably be the firms considered.
