LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES OCTOBER 15, 1985 PAGE 4 Councilmembers Mazzara and Armstrong still had concerns that even though the 35 mph speed limit could not be enforced, the 35 mph signs did slow the traffic down considerably. The discussed new entrance to Tartan Park is a gravel road further to the east and used by the maintenance personnel. City Engineer Bohrer has contacted Al Lehman, 3M'Engineering, and was told by Mr. Lehman that this was their intention to black top the road and make it a club house entrance.

D. Public Hearing for vacation of the remaining northerly 200 feet of Argyle Street bordering the east edge of Lots 297 and 298, Lanes DeMontreville Country Club Addition. Applicant: Paul Hansen. Pursuant to published notice the public hearing was opened at 7:50 p.m. in the City Council chambers.

Landfill Water Supply System - County Proposal Washington County Commissioner, Sally Evert advised the City Council that Washington County is looking at other options to a Lake Elmo municipal water supply system proposed to service those residents affected by the contaminated landfill. One of the options seriously being considered is hooking up to the Oakdale water system. Evert stated that the water at the landfill is being cleaned up and feels that the PCA will soon say there is no health danger there. Therefore, it could become difficult, if not impossible, to get participation from Ramsey County in providing Lake Elmo with its own water system.
