MSP (Johnson- Hodges) that we approve the preliminary plat of White
Oak Estates Third Addition subject to Mr. Carlson entering into a
development agreement with the City covering the construction of
a drain pipe from the westerly property lines of Block 1 to the
catch basin on Pleasant View and that the agreement incorporate
that the City Engineer draws up plans and specifications covering
the construction of the drainage pipe.
Mayor Johnson asked Mr. Carlson if he would agree to post a performance
bond on this and he replied yes, within his capital capabilities.
Administrator Achen said that Mr. Carlson has applied for such an
improvement and some decision needs to be made as to how that improve-
ment should be effected. Mayor Johnson suggested that this could be
worked out also when the development agreement is negotiated.
Attorney Meyers stated that Mr. Carlson is the only party being
assessed, so consequently, we do not have to have a public hearing.
Councilman Shelquist inquired as to the possible purchase of the
20' x 30' parcel of land from the Bona's. Has anything been done
on that? Mr. Carlson said no, as he wanted to get this approved before
buying anything else to attach to it. He further stated that it was
pointed out in the Planning Commission that "why should Mr. Carlson
be penalized ". However, Mr. Carlson agreed that he would try.
Mayor Johnson stated that there were variances required for substan-
dard lot frontages and a note should be made of that. He asked
for a vote.
Mayor Johnson read a letter from Robert A. Carlson stating that
he agreed to accept the assessments necessary to complete the work.
Engineer Bearden suggested that the costs be gotten together and
presented at the next meeting.
MSP (Johnson- Baumgartner) that we accept this petition and that we
talk to the City Engineer to prepare preliminary plans and cost
estimates for serving the proposed lots on Block 1, White Oak
Estates Third Addition.
Mayor Johnson adjourned the public hearing at 9:20 p.m. and asked
for a 10 minute recess.
Mayor Johnson dismissed Engineer Bearden for the remainder of the
meeting.
The Council meeting reconvened at 9:30 p.m. Administrator Achen
stated that a letter was sent to all businesses in the community
that would be affected by the proposed ordinance revising various
license fees and procedures. Mayor Johnson presented the following
quick overview of the matter. Inflation is a real problem. The
