for the new City Office building.
Mottaz moved, seconded by Morgan, to construct the new City Office
at the Landfill site. The building to be one-story, constructed
west and south of the maintenance building, partially earth sheltered,
approximately 2,500 sq. ft. and cost approximately $150,000.
Reserves and the sale of the present office building to be used to
finance the new building.
Discussion: Mottaz indicated that the drainfield at the maintenance
building would be adequately handle the new building.
Eder gave the background of the agreement with the County on the
future land use of the landfill. The primary use, once the landfill
was closed, was for park purposes. He did not support the maintenance
garage at that site and does not favor the City Office located there.
He would like the office building to remain in the Old Village area,
where it has always been.
Fraser agreed it was not appropriate to locate the office at the
landfill; and believes the $32,000 extra to build in Brookman
Addition would be well spent. She said the landfill location is
inconvenient for the personnel and residents; and, would impose
a loss to the business community, as well as the residents of Lake
Elmo. She feels the Old Village area provides a central location
for the community.

Novak does not feel the City should be in the business of spending
$150,000 for a new building. Future economics may deem expansion
unfeasible and rental a necessity. She anticipated may problems
with this large expenditure. She also opposed selling the present
building and diminishing the area and access for the Fire Hall.
Novak also expressed concern that the sewer/septic system at the
present office building may pose limitations on the type of use
in that building. She favors remodeling the present office building,
in a less extensive manner, to meet the minimum needs.

suggested the Planner cotes in and talk with the Council. The

of a second.
Mr. Olinger said he wished to plat only the lots around the
existing homes, at this time. The Engineer suggested a concept
plan be developed for the entire parcel.

between the Olinger property and the east property line,with_:the
excavation permit and the proposed subdivision. Mr. Olinger

ENGINEER'S REPORT:
A. Well #2 - Engineer Bohrer

Office well, per the Council's

reviewed the background for a
on the water testing of the City
instructions. The test results
did not contain the high levels
well #2.
Mottaz recommended that consideration of Lake Elmo Hardwood's
well be abandoned and that the City study and consider the pos-
sibility of drilling another well.
The Council discussed the well, causes of contamination, and future
water needs for the City. The Council, then, instructed the
Engineer to prepare a report on alternatives for providing a
second water supply.
B. MSA Project - The Engineer reported that the balance in
Lake E m� o s MSA account is approximately $215,000. He reviewed
the two road segments that have been considered for improvement,
and outlined the estimated bonding obligations. He reported
that if both segments (Keats Ave from Hwy 36 to 47th Street and
45th Street, Julep and 47th Street) were constructed, approximately
$250,000 would have to be bonded.
The Council discussed the 30 MPH curves on 45th, Julep, and 47th
Street with the Engineer recommending that the City pass a resolution
requesting a variance for the lower design speed (40 MPH curves
is required); and suggested he report back at the next Council
meeting with alternative methods of financing the program. The
Mayor stressed that the City's intent in applying for a reduced
design speed is to reduce the amount of right-of-way required for
the two corners. He stated a prime concern in the Ag Preserve Act
is to keep prime farm land in production; and it is the intent of
Lake Elmo to comply with this, therefore, a variance for 30 MPH
curves is needed. The Mayor also suggested a 25 MPH design which
could be compromised up to 30 MPH, if necessary. The Engineer
stated that a 25 MPH design would not be approved by the Variance
Committee and suggested that the minimum applied for be 30 MPH.
The Mayor will contact the Met Council and request their support
for the lesser design curve.
Mottaz moved, seconded by Fraser, to adopt R-81-32, A Resolution
requesting a variance from the required 40 mph design speed for
45th Street, Julep, and 47th Street, and instructing the Engineer
to prepare a report outling the methods of financing the two mile
project from Highway 36 to 45th Street. Motion carried 5-0.

the provisions and limitations of these bonds with the Brookfield
representatives.
Fraser moved, seconded by Novak, to adopt R-81-34, A Resolution
giving preliminary approval to a project under the Municipal
Industrial Development Act; referring the proposal to the Commissioner
of Securities for approval; and authorizing preparation of neces-
sary documents.

no obligation by approving these bonds and recommended that the
Administrator seek another legal review of the documents.
Motion carried 5-0.

on the Revenue Bond Act.
OLD BUSINESS CONTINUED:
C. DeMontreville Access - The Council reviewed a letter fiom
Derrick Land Co..coticerning the proposed DNR parking lot and
launch area in DeMontreville Highlands 5th Addition. The City
supports locating a parking lot in the area proposed, but has no
control over any agreement between Derrick Lank, Frank Kubecheck,
and the DNR. The Park Commission has not, formally commenteU on
this proposal, but Councillor Morgan indicated that they feel this
parking area is appropriate and necessary. He will initiate
action to have the Park Commission meet with the DNR, Mr. Kubecheck,
Derrick Land and the DeMontreville area residents at the next
regular Park Commission meeting, May 27.
Should this parking area be developed, the present City access
would be eliminated, also the present parking area may need to be
removed. The present access was intended for temporary use until
the DNR developed a permanent one.
Greg Fouks, resident on DeMontreville Tr. suggested posts be
placed in the shoulder north of the present access to prohibit
parking. The Administrator will contact the County Engineer
about this suggestion and about taking out the present paved
parking area once the proposed parking lot is complete. He will
also notify Roger Derrick about the Park Commission meeting.
The City received a request from Mr. Kubecheck that "No Parking"
signs be posted around the 53rd Street cul-de-sac of the 5th
Addition.
Mottaz moved, seconded by Novak, to post "No Parking" signs on
53rd St. N. Motion carried 5-0.
D. ATC in City Parks for Handicapped Use - Morgan reported that
the park commission decided that the current policy should nDt be
changed to allow the use of all terrain vehicles in City Parks
by handicapped persons. They still feel the limestone paths will
accomodate handicap use of the parks,

mission's recommendation that a 1 1/2 acre lot fulfill the park
donation and not require additional cash. He explained the lot
is a choice treed parcel with an estimated value of $28,000. The
Park Commission felt that the value of the lot equalled the park
donation even though it did not meet the total land requirement.
The Council agreed to accept the recommendation of the Park Com-
mission.
Morgan moved, seconded by Mottaz, to accept the recommendation of
the Park Commission and accept a 1 1/2 acre lot without requiring
