Mayc::° <br />Crane also stated that JOIE if the plan was approved at the election the <br />would become the fourth Trustee whoever was elected. Upon call of roll all <br />voted aye, motion carried. <br />Clerk Smith also stated that he would like to see the sewer propositi "-. <br />placed on the ballot at the December election and so moved which was secor:_ <br />by Malvin. Smith stated that he felt the people of the village should have <br />a voice in this as the issue had been discussed quite frequently and is of <br />great concern to most citizens in the village. <br />Mayor Crane stated that at the sewer hearing on October 17, 1960 the <br />question of sewer on the ballot came up and it was his opinion that the <br />petition system would be better. The sewer proposition could be placed on <br />ballot later when the council had a firm proposal to present to the people <br />instead of the present time when it is still undecided. <br />Trustee Christensen stated that he felt that putting it on the ballot <br />was not necessarily the most Democratic way because that people in the <br />where sewer is not necessary would vote against it ma and that a fairer <br />would possibly be by petition. <br />Clerk Smith then stated that the Arsenal has given a proposal for a <br />contract with Arden Hills Village and this village at the amount of $1,00" <br />a month. Smith felt that a new council could possibly contract with sews_ <br />disregarding the people's wishes and that this is the reason that the pecy: <br />should be able to voice their opinion by vote at this time. <br />Mayor Crane stated that the $1,000.00 a month charge by the Arsenal <br />would not include maintenance, which the Village would be expected to do. <br />He also questioned what wording could be used on the ballot to present thl: <br />i ssuet. <br />Clerk Smith then stated that this could be in the form of an advisor:- <br />balloti in order to obtain the feklings of the people and he felt that a:__ <br />year would be too long to wait as far as the people in the Pinewood, Sun::. <br />and other affected areas are concerned. <br />Upon call of roll on the motion, Hodges, Christensen and Crane, no; <br />Smith and Malvin, aye, motion lost. <br />Clerk Smith read a request from the Anoka Minneapolis Bus Company for <br />a change of routing within the Village.
