LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES time schedule. t APRIL 18, 1989 PAGE 9 Bohrer felt that if the full 20,000 cu.yds is brought in there is a much greater likelihood of interferring with drainage, dirt and dust uses and erosion. Until such time, the City should suspend the fill operations. It was Councilman's Graves understanding at the time, there was a definite plan to be presented to the Council so that it would describe how the fill would be utilized. He believed the reason Mr. Gorman was asking for the fill permit last fall. was because of an opportunity was present for him to acquire fill. reasonably priced. M/S/P Williams/Graves - to direct the City Staff. and City Attorney to notify Ed Gorman should suspend fill operations until the site plan has been considered and approved by the City Council based on these Findings: (Motion carried 5-0). 1. The filling continues without a site plan while it was understood, last September that this site plan would be forthcoming shortly after January 1, 1989. 2. The dirt being piled there constitutes a potential hazard to the community because of obstruction of drainage, being a source of windblown dust, and a slide hazard, and is an unattractive nuisance.
