MSP (Johnson - Hodges) To direct the Acting Clerk to prepare a memorandum to the <br />building inspection department telling them we have a very flat area with certain <br />elevations that will be below the level of the streets, that it is imperative that <br />special attention be given to landscaping and the elevation of the basement floor <br />of the dwellings going in this area to see that they are constructed to provide <br />adequate drainage for the developed lots. 5 Ayes <br />MSP (Neisen- Hodges) To direct the Engineer to prepare the assessment rolls for <br />Project 1973 -5, Mounds View Square Water Project and Project 1973 -6, Programmed <br />Land Street Project. 5 Ayes <br />MSP (Neisen- Hodges) To direct the Engineer to notify the contractor of Project <br />1973 -2 and Project 1973 -3 with the completion date of August 1, 1973, that $3,435.47 <br />would be withheld from the final payment. 5 Ayes <br />Engineer Comstock brought up the matter of the NSP overhead wires which are located <br />where the new streets will be in the northern part of the City. NSP will relocate <br />them 10 feet from the property line which would put the poles five feet behind the <br />curb. It was the Council's feeling that this would be unsightly in the front <br />yards. NSP will relocate anyplace the Council suggests, but it will be the matter <br />of who will pay the expenses which would be quite costly. The Attorney noted <br />that NSP is operating in this area without a franchise and they have no right -of- <br />ways or required easements. <br />It was suggested to try to persuade them to relocate the poles at the back lot <br />lines with no expense to the City. <br />MSP (Hodges- Baumgartner) To set a special hearing on September 9, 1974 at 8:30 <br />P.M. on Dutch Elm and Oak Wilt Tree Diseases. Letters will be sent to residents <br />with this problem and Dr. French and the Park Director will attend the hearing. 5 Ayes <br />Mayor Neisen brought to our attention the minutes of July 22, 1974 on Page 11 <br />with reference to the motion concerning Red Oak Estates #3. He stated that these <br />conditions were met and letters were written by the engineering firm and the <br />attorneys firm and the plat was signed on July 30, 1974. <br />A resident questioned the drainage ditch in the Red Oak Estates #2 and #3 area. <br />Mayor Neisen stated that since we are in a law suit on this property we weren't <br />at liberty to discuss it. She also questioned why Mr. Harstad's name had been <br />omitted from the August 5, 1974 minutes. Mayor Neisen informed her that Mr. <br />Harstad was not at the meeting, but it was a meeting with Architect Walijarvi. <br />Mr. Frank Gabrish questioned when he would be assessed for the big project going <br />in. Attorney Meyers informed him it wouldn't be until next year. <br />MSP (Johnson- Hodges) To adjourn at 11:37 P.M. 5 Ayes <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br />Dorothy Sa �:'gren, <br />Acting Clerk- Treasurer <br />
