The problem of draining water would have to be worked out between the city, highway department and Rice Creek Watershed. The culverts may not be sufficient. Mr. Gordon Ziebarth, 5150 Bona Road, asked if the baffel could be blocked up by sand draining across the parking lot and flowing into it. Mr. McLennan said the baffel would have to be maintained by the property owner. Mr. Kasell said they have a preventative maintenance program to keep the trap clean. Mr. Rebeck asked that the City make sure this is a complete plan. A city hydrologist should be consulted to be sure it meets approval. He is not in the way of progress but does not want another blunder made. Councilman Baumgartner felt it would be a good idea to let the hydrologist firm include this proposal in their investigation. Mayor Johnson said in terms of the overall project, the concept is fine but as far as drainage the Council wants assurance that the design is adequate. Mr. Kasell agreed but said the bids are let and they are ready to go. Councilman Shelquist said he likes the Perkins concept, he also likes McDonald's, Bridgeman's type of development. He likes to see this type of development come into the city. He questioned the two accesses to Highway 10. He asked if they would consider only the access on Raymond Avenue. Mr. Kasell did not feel it would be as good a flow. He was not opposed, but not excited about giving it up. Councilman Shelquist said he was concerned about the additional traffic backup that could be generated at the traffic signal with the second opening by the Mermaid. MSP (Johnson- Baumgartner) to approve the concept development of Perkins Cake and Steak as proposed subject to Council approval at a later date by Council action subject to approved traffic entrance and exit, accomodations for water and sewer, storm water draining, lighting, trash enclosures, and site approval at a time staff and Council are able to secure approval from private consultants on water and final approval to be given on July 14 providing everything is in order. Councilman Shelquist asked what if problems are not resolved by that date. Mayor Johnson said that Perkins indicated they are ready to go and all the City wants to do is make sure everything is right, specifically drainage. Councilman Shelquist would like to see a time set to meet with Mr. Herbst, city engineer and Rice Creek Watershed. Mayor Johnson said a status report shall be made on June 30, given to Council on July 7th and a final decision on July 14th. He directed the staff to arrange for this report. 3 Ayes
