LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MTG. - 5/3/83 Page eleven A. Lake Jane Landfill - Whittaker said the Washington County Planning Department has agreed in principle that none of this water will leave the site. They want to postpone the public meeting until the final report is done; however, they are sending out a informational letter to all the people around the landfill to advise them of the current status of activities. Hopefully by the first of June, the report will have been received and accepted by the County Board on the whole contamination problem and then they would hold a public informational meeting. I'll send a copy of that letter to you. e Eder - Suggested that Whittaker ask the County for an update, say every other month. B. Cleanup Day Permit - Will provide for people who are organizing.Tri- Lakes Association cleanup to get their trucks in and out without charge. Fees are $5 a car, $6 small trailer, $10 for a truck, and about $25 for a big trailer. M/S/P Dunn/Morgan that the City let Tri-Lakes dump free as outlined by Whittaker. (Carried 5-0) C. Section 32, Concept Plan - M/S/P Fraser/Mazarra that we defer this item to the next meeting. (Carried 5-0) 10. ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT A. Resolution on Comprehensive Sewer Plan - M/S/P Fraser/Mazarra to adopt Resolution R-83-31 that the sewer section in Lake Elmo's Comprehensive Plan is our Comprehensive Sewer Plan until the issues around the waste -to - energy plant are resolved. (Carried 5-0) B. Joint Meeting with Planning Commission - The Planning Commission has reviewed the areas in the Comprehensive Plan that they have had a problem with and would like to present their recommendations to the City Council, after which they would schedule public hearings on the amendments of the Comprehensive Plan. Consensus of Councillors was that the meeting would be held June 14. Whittaker will send Councillors packet of what Planning Commissioners want to bring up. C. Ordinance 7951, Subdivision Amendments - The only substantive change is a limit on the number of lots one can create by simple lot division which is basically a limit of two lots in platted areas. The amendments recommended are primarily just to update the number of copies required for an application, spelling out of fees by ordinance in lieu of resolution, and be more specific about simple lot subdivision. The subdivision ordinance doesn't require a public hearing but one can be held for variances. M/S/P Eraser/Mazarra to adopt Ordinance 7951 to amend the subdivision ordinance. (Carried 5-0) D. Use of City Hall - Use of City Hall has previously been basically reserved for public and quasi -public meetings. Concern has been that we couldn't possibly accommodate all City groups. • Fraser - It would be perfectly reasonable to look at other requests that come in; and if the Council deems it appropriate, we should change the policy to
