legal basis to go after the entire amount in full.

is a trailer or a sign, the Clerk stated he would send Wilmus Properties a
building permit application for a sign in order that they could comply with the
building code.
Councilman Pickar's Report
Councilman Pickar reported that he was unable to attend the last Lakeside Park
meeting but that he has read the request of Mrs. Haake, acting as a private
citizen, seeking to dissuade the City of Fridley from establishing another beach
on the west end of the lake. He related his support for her letter.
Walter Skiba reported that last Saturday he appeared in Justice Court to support
a charge against a local heating contractor for failure to obtain permits. The
contractor was double feed by the judge.
Robert Glazer, Planning Commission member, related that he feels the need for a
Village development plan to determine our optimum land uses. Attorney Meyers
stated that he felt it may be difficult to uphold our zoning ordinance in
litigation as time passes unless consideration is given to a new plan in the
future. The last comprehensive plan was finished in 1960.
Mayor Neisen announced that the Mounds View Appreciation Dinner has been
scheduled for February 19th.
