Admin. Achen presented a proposed ordinance covering postponed
construction of improvements. He stated it may be a possible
solution to the Keith Harstad request and future requests to
develop land where improvements are needed but cannot be
immediately constructed. The ordinance proposes that an
agreement be executed by the city and the developer which
would indicate the developer agrees to the improvements,
agrees to accept assessment for cost of such improvements
and waives rights to hearing at such time in the future as
the improvements are constructed. The agreement would be
filed with the Register of Deeds, thereby informing all future
purchasers of the agreement.
The proposed ordinance was referred to Attorney Meyers for
review and Council consideration at the March 14th meeting.
Admin. Achen read a letter received by the Chief of Police
from the Assistant County Attorney's Office. The letter indicated
the Asst. County Attorney is going on a one year's leave of
absence and spoke very highly of the cooperation and assistance
received from the Mounds View Police Department.
