LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MAY 19, 1987 page 2 Dan Novak reported the current financial situation at $1038.47. This figure is less that the figure reported at the May 5th City Council meeting. Dan will check with Linda Ramirez on these figures. Feelers have been put out for an attorney and quotes will be received. Todd Williams felt regardless of the respogse from the Met Council and the MPCA, it is time to take a good long look at what our options are. They felt the City would do well with professional advice. City Attorney Knaak has requested that he sit down with the Citizen's Advisory Committee to determine exactly what their progress has been on this matter and what role precisely they expect the City to play. The City Council thought this was an approprate course of action at this time. During the summer months, the Citizens Advisory Commiittee meetings will be held on Sunday at 8:00 p.m. in the City Council chambers. 5.

Also, Bingo is not specified as an activity. M/S/P Armstrong/Graves - to take a second look at the Section numbers listed in 1104.020 in our Charitable Gambling ordinance and make sure they are correct. (Motion carried 5-0). 6. PLANNING, LAND USE AND ZONING A. Shoreland Permit: Thomas Brown, 8265 Hidden Bay Ct. Mr. Thomas Brown, 8265 Hidden Bay Trail, proposes to construct an addition onto his home which is adjacent to Deer Pond. Shoreland Regulations apply. The addition consists of a living room on the upper floor and a recreation room with a whirlpool on the lower floor. It appers that no variances are required and since no bedrooms are added, no evaluation of the septic system is required. The DNR had no objections to this permit application. City Engineer Bohrer recommended that the Shoreland Permit be granted because there are no variances required, but the applicant should be aware that a whirlpool may place an additional load on the drainfield. M/S/P Moe/Graves - to grant the Shoreland Permit for the proposed
