LAKE ELMO COUNCIL MINUTES - 9/20/83 Page 9 • Fraser - From practical standpoint, Councillors are eager to resolve problem; if Administrator can work with this group and others and information is brought to us, we can take some action. e Morgan - Believe that's good suggestion, to separate fact from fiction so we have something before us. ® Eder - Directed those present to contact City Administrator with any additional information/comments and suggested that Klaers follow-up with Bob Lockyear preceding every Council meeting. 8. COUNCIL REPORTS - M/S/P Dunn/Morgan to accept Dave Morgan's resignation as City representative (alternate) for Valley Branch 509 Watershed Committee and that his replacement would be Tom Armstrong as recommended. (Carried 5-0) o Mr. Jim Weyer extended his help on the 509 Committee and said he would be happy to serve as an alternate if such an opening is available. M/S Morgan/Eder that Jim Weyer serve on the Valley Branch Advisory Committee and as an alternate or whatever is open on the 509 Committee. e Fraser - Motion is vague; it would make more sense to have City Administrator check on what positions are available for Jim Weyer's participation. ® Morgan withdrew motion; Eder withdrew second. • Eder - City Administrator is to check to see what opening is available on Valley Branch Advisory Committee and/or 509 Committee so proper recommendation can be made at next meeting regarding Jim Weyer's participation. 9. ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT A. Hunting in Section 24, Sign Recommendation - Klaers said County Highway Department said sign would affect such a small percentage of people traveling down the road that it would be a distraction instead of an asset. • Fraser - I follow rationale of Administrator's report and see where it would be just as well not to take any action at present. 9 Morgan - Think signs City has are worthless and should do what we discussed at last meeting and use statement in ordinance "no hunting without written permission" since a much stronger impact. O Fraser - I agree with that, but is there some reason that isn't feasible? (Klaers - there's a time delay of at least a month to obtain those signs since it would be a special printing.) e Dunn - maybe we should go a season and see how it goes because we're talking $200 for signs. (Morgan - $35/each for signs.) • Morgan - certainly entrance to Eden Park would be appropriate place to put one sign (on Legion Avenue) and perhaps another one on cul-de-sac entrance off Manning Avenue. 9 Fraser - would we want to think of some temporary wooden signs in those key spots that we could get sooner, such as from a sign painter and they could be taken down after the season. 9 Whittaker - it might be cheaper to have County do signs.
