-5- <br />is that the work which is not done should be completed and <br />finish the project. Atty. Meyers stated that the thing to <br />do under these circumstances is to complete the original <br />project based on the request of the owner. You should do only <br />that which is necessary to complete what you authorized in <br />view of the fact that you have a more long range improvement <br />for that section of the city. If you do not feel that you are <br />in a position to act this evening you may continue this meeting. <br />Admin. Achen stated that the city has expended $9200 so far, <br />and the work done by city forces is not included in this figure. <br />MSP(Johnson- Hodges) that we direct the engineer to go back to <br />the work which was originally proposed last summer and that a <br />review of the work be made, see what has been accomplished to <br />date, and that a proposal be made as to what work needs to <br />be done in order to complete the work necessary to finish the <br />project as originally conceived and have a report ready for <br />Council May 24. <br />Mr. Frisch then stated that he had no objection to the hearing <br />but if you have anything in advance of the meeting we would <br />like communication on it. He intends to cooperate. He <br />further stated that he has seen the result of $9000 and does <br />not think that another $9000 will solve the problem. They <br />will bring their professionals and offer their recommendations. <br />Ed Paster spoke to the Council regarding Paster Enterprises <br />holding up their end of the bargain, i.e. a first -class <br />operation, hiring the best architects, worked with the Council <br />on the landscaping, cooperated with the overall program. They <br />have made substantial commitments to Mounds View, got the <br />stoplights put in there, done a great many things that were <br />difficult. They would be happy to get rid of that water, they <br />did what they were told to do, all their expensive sod washed <br />into the drainage ditch. However, it is a problem that is <br />total area wide. They cannot be responsible for the overall <br />problem. All they have done is respond to your requests. Just <br />because the problem is not resolved does not mean they haven't <br />cooperated. <br />A roll call vote was requested: <br />Councilman Shelquist - absent <br />Councilman Hodges - aye <br />Councilman Baumgartner - aye <br />Councilman Pickar - aye <br />Mayor Johnson - aye <br />Motion carried. <br />Mayor Johnson adjourned this public hearing until May 24 at <br />8:30 p.m. <br />
