March 18, 1976
Council agenda March 22, 1976, meeting:
ITEM 4. Chapter 93 has been reviewed by attorney. The new
Chapter eliminates the cumbersome Board of Health Appeals
and requires registration of all multiples ($3 per unit,
minimum $15 annual).
ITEM 5. Council received copies of Lakeside bandshell application.
Resolution gives moral support to it.
ITEM 6. Contract for traffic control device inventory stipulates
that City will pay only those costs which are 100%
reimbursable and specifies what the final report is to
include.
ITEM 7. Reapportionment of assessments on Briar Lake, Ingvald
Johnson Terrace, Balk's Addition plats and on Towns
Edge Terrace Mobile Home Park property being acquired
by Ramsey County Open Space.
ITEM 8. Four street easements in the White Oak Estates Third
Addition are unnecessary, because they were taken some
time ago when a different street alignment was anticipated.
The easement for the existing street was recorded with a
slight error and needs to be corrected prior to filing
the final plat.
ITEM 9. Addition of Chapter 59.06 outlines development controls
to be applied to all developments requiring a building
permit. Have contacted other cities regarding amount
of performance bond. General practice is to require
about 125% of estimated cost of public improvements.
Some indicated that where city has little worry and has
faith in the developer this percentage might go as low
as 75%. In cases of extreme city concern it might go as
high as 150%. For non - public improvements (landscaping,
etc.) the percentage was somewhat higher with 110-150%
common. Will have a written proposal for such by meeting
time.
ITEM 10. Meyers is revising the Mermaid development contract.
All parties of interest, including the current fee owner
of the property, should be required to sign the contract.
A performance bond satisfactory to the attorney should
be required before issuance of the building permit.
ITEM 11. Bel Rae proposes to construct addition 31 x 17' to
existing ballroom for use as an amusement center with
foosball, pinball and other machines. Addition will be
faced with same architectural design now on the Bel Rae's
entrance. Access to center will be through ballroom
