work that would solve the drainage problem. He stated that the city attempted

specific requirements that the developer must meet in order to continue
work at the shopping center.
Councilman Shelquist asked whether the developer was aware of these solutions
and had agreed to perform them.
Mayor Johnson stated that the developer had participated in preparation of
these both yesterday afternoon and this morning.

is necessary if these requirements are not completed as stipulated.
