about seven other mayors present from suburban Ramsey County communities
to express their concern regarding several legislative proposals of the
Board. Mayor Johnson stated that a meeting was held last Wednesday evening
with legislators and senators that represent Mounds View and seven other
communities in Ramsey County. It was an opportunity to sit down and discuss
different proposals currently before the Minnesota legislature. Mayor
Johnson stated the meeting was very successful.
Mayor Johnson asked what the timetable for completion of Project 1973 -4 is.

any comments on a timetable. He will have a better idea in two or three weeks.

and County Road I. Administrator Achen stated the State is anxious to get
going but he has not contacted the County about paying more of the operating
expenses.
Mayor Johnson stated Representative Howard Neisen met with the Council at the
last agenda meeting. It was a good opportunity for the Council to exchange
thoughts with the Representative regarding changes that will affect our
community.
Administrator Achen responded to a question on requiring a plat or survey
for minor subdivision. He noted there is a need to clarify the sequence
of events involved in both major and minor subdivisions. He will have a
report for Council at its next meeting.
Councilman Shelquist stated Barbara Haake plans to rewrite the subdivision
procedure. He said he compared the procedure presently used and that
written in the code and found some confusion between the two. He said the
subdivision booklets should be updated to agree with the code.
