Mayor Johnson stated that the City Appreciation Benefit is February 7. COUNCILMAN SHELQUIST'S REPORT Administrator Achen was asked to find out regarding Robert Bruflodt's lot split. The neighbor to the north wanted less than a 50/50 lot split but he wanted to wait and see what had taken place in the Bruflodt lot division. It was 180 x 100 and 273.2 x 100. It was recorded at the County as 150 x 100 and 305.2 x 100. Conse- quently, Councilman Shelquist felt that the sketch plan system doesn't work, and feels we may have to go to survey on all lot splits. Administrator Achen replied that the Council's position at one time was not to require the plat. There was the preparation of an ordinance on that basis. Mayor Johnson inquired as to what a survey was going to do. Councilman Shelquist asked what the County has to go on when a lot split is recorded at this point? Admini- strator Achen replied that the deed is stamped saying that the lot split did take place and was approved. It is encumbent upon the staff to see that it is stamped as it was approved by the Council. Mr. Bruflodt's deed was not checked by anybody except himself. Mayor Johnson asked if we should have Mr. Achen develop an ordinance where we begin requiring a plat on minor subdivisions. Councilman Shelquist replied that he was concerned that we do not have enough control to prevent someone from doing what he pleases. Councilman Baumgartner stated that the staff is now reviewing these deeds and comparing them to the original subdivision request and he would be concerned about the additional expense. Administrator Achen stated that he would find out exactly what kind of cost would be involved and will report back. ATTORNEY MEYERS' REPORT The assessment appeal was continued until the middle of March. Councilman Shelquist stated that he would like to have the staff check with New Brighton and see the status of Bill & Ed's Auto Repair located there.
