LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES APRIL 20, 1993 2 The City Attorney referred to his letter dated May 12, 1992 indicating the Preliminary Plat for Fox Fire Manor was approved May 7, 1991. The city street standards regulations were approved on October 15, 1991. The Final Plat for Fox Fire Manor was scheduled for approval on May 18, 1992. State Statute states developers receive a one year moratorium on new city regulations after the preliminary plat was approved. Rolling Hills Preliminary Plat was approved December 17, 1991 so the city street standards adopted in October, 1992 were in place before the Preliminary Plat for Rolling Hills was approved. The reasons why it took so long between submittal and preliminary and final approval had nothing to do with the City of Lake Elmo, but issues such as location of the road. The engineer for the developer stated they will review and verify that the road plans submitted for preliminary plat approval were according to the old street standards. M/S/P Conlin/Johnson - to deny the request of Chuck Nelson President of Nelson Properties Inc., for modifying the 1991 Engineering Standards for Rolling Hills. (Motion carried 5- 0). B. Animal Control (1) Letter from Animal Control Officer dated March 26, 1993 M/S/P Johnson/Conlin - to direct the staff to prepare an Ordinance to the Animal Control Section Regulating cats (Motion carried 4-1: Mottaz:enforcement of this cat ordinance will be impossible to achieve). (2) Pay Increase for Animal Control Officer Approval of 1993 Animal Control Contract M/S/P Mottaz/Johnson - to approve the same 1993 Animal Control Contract Mike Smith has with North St. Paul. (Motion carried 3-2: Conlin: For budgeting purposes, interested in developing a monthly flat rate, Johnston: we should follow the recommendation of the City Administrator). If there is a desire to modify this contract, this will be reviewed at the end of the year after the animal control ordinance has been publicized.
