LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES OCTOBER 6, 1992 3 4. PUBLIC INQUIRIES/PUBLIC INFORMATIONAL: James P. Dillon, 8190 Hill Trail N., submitted a petition signed by property owners on the channel connecting Lake DeMontreville and Lake Olson, requesting the City to purchase 2-3 "No -Wake" buoys. These buoys are to be placed by the Washington County Sheriff's Office in and at the mouths of the above named Channel. Further, they request that the City also post a sign at the public access on Lake DeMontreville to inform the public of this "No Wake" area. The Council will consider this request at the next council meeting, but asked that this request also be made of the Tri-Lakes Association. Rita Conlin, 8560 Ironwood Trail N., asked the City Attorney if Councilman Hunt wins his appeal and the City does pay the attorney fees, can the city sue Mr. Sovereign for reimbursement of legal fees? Attorney Filla responded that the claim that is to be made for reimbursement is a claim submitted by a party of interest. Margaret Carlson, 8735 27th St. N., thanked the council members who attended the ReAPP ceremony celebrating "the death of the dump". Carlson voiced her concern on the statement written by Mayor Johnson in his campaign literature. Mr. Johnson's contribution to the 5-year fight was one vote along with four other council members who voted to use part of the landfill referendum funds for education and legislative purposes. This motion was made by Dick Johnson and seconded by Todd Williams as stated in the January 5th, 1991 minutes. This was Mayor Johnson's total involvement and to suggest anything else is an insult to the 200+ ReAPP families in this community for their time and money that they spent to actually help the ReAPP fight. Mayor Johnson stated he met with a number of legislators and did attempt to talk to them in ReAPP's behalf. During the last campaign it was Mr. Mottaz and himself who made the issue that we had to get the information out and get some legislative action taken here. 5. OLD BUSINESS: A. Cimarron Storm Shelters M/S/P Williams/Dick Johnson - the city council determines that the storm shelter capacity of Cimarron shall be satisfied by two shelters and that the population to be accommodated at 100% utilization as required by the state shall be according to the 1990 census. (Motion carried 4-0).
