The Attorney arrived at 9 :55 P.M. and reported on the hearing held by Metrpolitan Airports Commission. He reported that the Village could use their funds to fight the proposed enlargement of the Anoka County Airport as Village property is involved. He also reported that the N.A.C. holds absolute power on Zoning within two miles of runway which is almost all of the Village. Two members of the North Suburban Property Owners reported on their newly founded Organization, formed to fight the Airport Expansion. Dues are $1.00. The Mayor is to request a report from the the Planner, Mr. Dahlgren on the Airport. Mr. Christensen read a report from the North Suburban Sanitary Sewer Committee. This report is on file at the Village Office but the policy of the Committee report states in part, as follows: 1. We, as a Committee, are solely interested in the passage of our bill as is written, for immediate and economical relief of our common problem. 2. The Committee believes the way to expediate the passage of our bill is on the basis of need, health, timing and freedom of choice and that the factors of industrial development in our area, or the idea of getting passage of the bill for bargaining power in the future with some agency, should be supressed. 3. The plan that we feel is best for this area, and the metropolitan area as a whole, is a regional treatment plant in the northwest area, which is similar to plan B -1 of the various solutions presented in the Metropolitan Sanitary District report, Volume 3. 4. The Committee feels that the control of the river should be placed wholly in the hands of a state agency. 5. With regard to the question of support of the Metropolitan Sanitary District expansion, the Committee will consider the subject when the expansion bill is available for %etudy.
