The Council requested an inventory be done on the platted available RR lots, which will be broken down to: Platted RR No. of Lots and Undeveloped (not been platted) RR No. of Acres.

REQUEST FOR CONFERENCE ATTENDANCE (MARY KUEFFNER) Mary Kueffner has requested approval to attend the State Clerk's Conference at Alexandria, MN. Funds are available in the Administrator Schools/Conferences budget. Administrator Morrison recommended Council approval of Mary's request. M/S/P Graves/Moe - resolved that the Council hereby authorizes Mary Kueffner's attendance at the Spring 1.989 City Clerk's Conference in Alexandria. (Motion carried 5-0). COUNCIL DISCUSSION: Section 32 Councilman Graves, based on the result of the Hearing on the Bill, felt there was an increased necessity for the City to show they are willing to work with the propertyowners. Graves suggested the following: 1. Submit an ad to the Real Estate Journal Include a map identifying Section 32 and a statement that the Lake Elmo City Council is willing to work with the propertyowners and developers for proper utilization of this land. 2. Authorize the City Planner and Financial Consultatnt put together a proposal for utilization of this land. (The CC, PZ, Rep. from Met Council, Twin Cities Realtors Board have some opinions on this land). Councilman Graves felt the quicker we get something ongoing, the better chance we have for the Municipal Board turning down proposed annexation. Councilman Hunt suggested a member of the CC and PZ approach these groups, Metro East, Met Council, and direct professionals based on what they hear. Hunt did agree with submittal of the Ad. Councilman Williams suggested contacting Oakdale, since they want sewer, would they be willing to work together to get the pipe into Section 32. He also suggested approaching working with the City of Woodbury. City Engineer Bohrer stated the Future Land Use Concept Plan of 1986 is still valid today. The cost of the utilities were based on this, but now the costs would have to be raised. Then the Financial Consultants could come up with alternatives for financing. The City could contact Oakdale and discuss the cost for sharing the pipe. An inventory of land in Green Acres should be provided for the Planner.
