APPROVAL OF MINUTES, Continued MOUNDS VIEW CITY COUNCIL Regular Meeting Page 3 January 14, 1980 Dan Boxrud of S.E.H. explained the 7. SILVER LAKE ROAD proposed installation of water services IMPROVEMENTS (Project 80 -1) and possible methods of financing. Walter Skiba, 7841 Silver Lake Road, pointed out a possible problem since the apartments have paid for improvements in the past. Attorney Meyers explained that anyone previously assessed may be due a credit, should the project go through. A discussion took place regarding whether the system would provide adequate fire protection. The Fire Marshal has pre- viously indicated it would not. Glenn Karlen, affected property owner, wants the improvements, but not at $66 per sq. ft. Genevieve Dahlberg, 8605 Baltimore St., affected property owner, felt it was time for the lots to be developed,'; but thought the cost sounded rather unreasonable. Mrs. Hansen, 7767 Groveland, feels that since her lot is 83' wide—too narrow to build double dwellings similar to those around her and not desirable to build a single family next to double dwelling+ -it may be unmarketable and therefore not worth the high cost of water installation. Craig Zuidema, 2809 County Road I, does not want and would not accept the $66 /sq. ft. assessment- he has recently dug a new well. The Mayor closed the Public Hearing and re- opened the Regular Meeting at 9:00 PM. McCarty moved to deny Project 60 -1 because it is not economically feasible. It was seconded by Ziebarth.

ENGINEER'S REPORT MOUNDS VIEW CITY COUNCIL Page 4 Bill Doty, 3049 Bronson, and Neil Loeding, 5046 Longview Drive, asked if any action would be taken re: their charge of interference by the City Administrator during the recent Charter campaign. The Council was in general agreement that it was best left in the past. Foreland suggested they might discuss it when the Council meets with the Charter Commission. Ray Malerm, proprietor of Angie's Pizza, requesta the 3.2 beer license fee be lowered from $1,000. Council explained the fee is primarily aimed at the only 3.2 applicant, the Bel -Rae, which requires considerable police coverage. The fee also prohibits numerous 3.2 joints from starting up in the City. Ziebarth moved that we grant Angie's Pizza a license for $500 for half of the year, giving credit for the number of days into the first half -year at date of issuance. This is granted with the understanding that the Council will review the license fee and if the figure is less per half -year than the amount paid, the excess money will be credited the next fee period.
