Lawcon-- Offer for grant for park funds (Reid Park) State $24,000, Federal $48,000. This is not guaranteed but odds are greatly in favor of it being approved. Sug- gestion by clerk that contact be made by Eugene Kindler. Total Lawcon grants possible in 1978 is $105,000. Ken Brackee--White Bear Lake Forester: Mr. Brackee verLal offer to Larry Whittaker is substantially less than the amount budgeted for 1978 for equivalent services from PIr. Beach. This was a question and answer approach which culminated in Mr. Brackee promising to send in a written proposal for council to re- view and make a determination on whether to stay with Mr. Beach or contract with Mr. Bracker. Recessed at 6:00 p.m. Reconvened at 7:15 p.m. John Mueller: Suggested that city consider 300 sq. feet of drainfield as a minimum requirement on any building area. Proposed state and county code calls for only 100 sq. st. per bedroom. Once the state code is adopted this will be the minimum but we can require a larger minimum. A proposed ordinance should be put to- gether by Adm. Assistant for consideration at council meeting January 17, 1978. Records: Bldg. Insp. suggested that city consider the possibility of having all plans microfiched. Possibly use a service and have only a reader available at city office for reviewing plan if necessary. This should be explored as to costs. MIISA-Resolution R77-17: Draft of resolution was considered and amended. Paragraph 1, section 1, line 4 insert "on site" after the word adequate.
