since the restrictions on the use of these funds have been tightened up , it would probably be very difficult for a City with the income level of St. Anthony to prove recreational associated drinking fountains • in -the parks would benefit mostly low or moderate income persons or senior citizens .

RESOLUTION 82-025 A RESOLUTION REALLOCATING CDBG MONIES Motion carried unanimously. The conversation related to the discontinuance of the branch pickup in the City was resumed with Councilman Enrooth agreeing such con- sideration should be deferred until the 1983 budget is drawn up , but reminding the Council members that he perceives a commitment has been made to the Public Works Department that the project would be dropped. Mayor Sundland recalled that other services such as curb edging have had to be discontinued in the past for budgetary reasons and he believes the residents would agree that seal coating the streets should have priority over this service when they learn the pickup took a month of the Public Work Department ' s time and cost $13 . 54 per stop. Councilman Ranallo suggested the point might be made that • if the streets are not kept up they might become as bad as the shopping center parking lots this year. . He reiterated that Larry Hamer has warned that road maintenance is becoming more difficult each year. In reference to the June 2nd staff notes , Mr. Childs said he expects the City to be reimbursed for charges made by Northwestern Bell for a line which was disconnected in 1974 and also for some of the costs of repairing the siren since the same company had installed sirens in other communities who have reported similar malfunctions .
