LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 19, 1991 PAGE 5 (Motion carried 5-0). D. Update on drainage concerns on Kraft Circle, Mike Ziniel, 3265 Kraft Circle. City Building Official McNamara presented pictures of the water problem and stated he met with the property owners last Wednesday (March 13). Mr. McNamara did some research and it appears that Kraft Circle was never machine laid, but cold rolled and consists of a gradual build up of seal coating. Grading may not have been done on this street. Larry Bohrer did not recall a project ever being done on this street. It appears there would be two solutions to the problem, however, both would be a financial burden to the City. A catch basin could be installed at the low point of the specific area and piped to an appropriate point near 33rd Street. The second solution would be the regrade the road so that it would naturally drain to the 33rd Street area at the surface. M/S/P Mottaz/Hunt- to instruct the City Engineer to look at this situation and make a determination if this is the City's responsibility and make a suggestion for correction if possible and whether the City should make the correction. (Motion carried 5-0). E. RESIDENTIAL MORATORIUM M/S Mottaz/Dick Johnson - to instruct the City Administrator to call a public hearing for the second. meeting in April to consider a 90 day Residential Development Moratorium, excluding the three plats that the city is currently reviewing. M/S/P Hunt/Williams - to amend the motion that if possible to call a. special meeting at the earliest possible convenience in order to call a public hearing for the earliest possible date for a Residential. Development Moratorium, excluding the three plats the city is currently reviewing. (Motion carried 4-1, against: Dick Johnson - since this affects the whole City of Lake Elmo it should be held. at a regularly scheduled meeting). 7. CITY ENGINEER'S REPORT: A.

Additions to water service area According to City Engineer Prew it would be more cost effective for the City to put in service stubs for future hook-up at this time rather than at a later date. The cost would be approximately $500.00 to $1,000.00 per service.
