Captain Johnson will provide the City Administrator with sample language for Council review. B. Meeting with residents in newly annexed area of Baytown to discuss Development Moratorium and MSA Designation of 50`h Street. Residents from the newly annexed area from Baytown have been invited to this meeting so they can be informed of the purpose of the development moratorium, and to understand the MSA designation and potential improvement of 501" Street. The Baytown Clerk was notified of this, and a letter sent to the Board Chair. Barb Engle, 12058 55`" St., asked if they would be able to reroof their garage once they're in receipt of an insurance claim. The Council suggested an amendment to the moratorium ordinance to permit exterior maintenance with a building permit granted by the City. Separate letters were received from Attorney John S. McDonald, Lawson, Marshall, McDonald & Galowitz, on behalf of Judy Screaton, Betty Smith, Bernie and Loella Nass and Rob Buberl opposing the proposed moratorium affecting their property which was part of the recent Baytown annexation. The property owners request that municipal sewer and water services be extended to their property. If the City is unwilling or unable to extend municipal sewer and water to these properties, please so notify them in writing. Attorney Fills responded the purpose of the development moratorium is to allow the City to take time to gather enough information from appropriate sources to determine what is the best way to allow this land to develop in the City of Lake Elmo. The State law allows cities to adopt a moratorium for as long as 2 '/x years, if they chose to do so. Attorney Filla will respond to the letters received.
