He stated the insurance company would not cover the cost <br />of repair.

It will be designated <br />to be paid from the Water Utilities Fund. 5 ayes <br />Councilmember Forslund questioned whether a bond would be required. Public Works <br />Superintendent Decheine indicated it was bonded already. <br />Mayor McCarty questioned whether the $2,375 fee was a fixed figure. Attorney Meyers <br />reviewed the proposed contract and stated it appeared to be a fixed figure. <br />Acting Administrator Anderson indicated H & A Water Tank Specialists would withdraw <br />their bid if they hadn't heard from the City before they started sandblasting the <br />tower. <br />Public Works Superintendent Decheine felt the dent was harmless, but also indicated <br />there might be some unforeseen damage that could occur in the future if the dent <br />went unfixed. <br />NEW BRIGHTON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REVIEW <br />Acting Administrator Anderson summarized the comments to this report by the <br />Planning Commission. They made reference to the lack of an airport policy, <br />elimination of a commercial spot south of Irondale, widening Highway 10, a <br />regional service center by the Super Value, and keeping Silver Lake Road the same. <br />Some discussion took place regarding the possibility of extending Mustang Road <br />south to meet the New Brighton border, but no positive conclusions resulted. <br />Mayor McCarty directed Staff to formulate a letter to the New Brighton City Council <br />indicating we had reviewed their Comprehensive Plan and address the lack of an <br />airport policy. <br />GALE ADDITION <br />Acting Administrator Anderson indicated the Planning Commission had approved the <br />plat for this property on 2/27/78 and it was approved by the Council on 6/14/78. <br />Mr. Chuck Buzzell was upset because of the delay caused by lack of drainage <br />requirements and was impatient at having to wait before placement on the Council <br />agenda. <br />Mayor McCarty informed Mr. Buzzell the City was not operating in accordance with <br />Resolution #983, not #892. He further instructed him to take the matter to an <br />engineer and bring the drainage proposal back to the City. <br />
