-5- President in 1988. Councilmember Ranallo congratulated Mr. Childs, telling him • he perceived it was very beneficial for the City to have the Manager so involved in activities outside the City. Copies of the invoice from Hennepin County indicating the City's share of land acquisition costs incurred by the County in relation to the reconstruction of County Road D had been distributed by the Manager, who said the City had already been reimbursed from the MSA funds for that amount. Motion by Councilmember Ranallo and seconded by Councilmember Marks to approve payment of $41 ,090.75 to Hennepin County Bureau of Public Service. Motion carried unanimously. Councilmember Ranallo suggested that this might be the appropriate year to consider changing the terms of office for the Mayor from two to four years and requested staff be directed to research what other municipalities have done in this regard and what actions necessary to accomplish the change. There were no objections to his proposal . Mr. Childs indicated the letter frpm Ramsey County Commissioner Ruby Hunt related to the consolidation of the Ramsey County Municipal Court system should require no Council action, since all St. Anthony cases are currently handled by the Hennepin County court system. Motion by Councilmember Marks and seconded by Councilmember Enrooth to approve • the second reading of the ordinance which amends the City alarm ordinance. ORDINANCE 1985-004 AN ORDINANCE RELATING TO ALARMS; AMENDING SECTION 45O:25b., REPEALING SECTIONS 45O:25d.1 , 450:30 AND 45O:35a; AND AMENDING SECTION 45O:35b Motion carried unanimously. In his January 8th memorandum, Mr. Hamer had advised the Council that, because Well #3 has had to be shut down for the past two years, maintenance on Well #4 on which the City has had to rely for its water supply, is now necessary. Because of a perceived wear on the pump bowl in that well , the Public Works Director recom- mended that equipment be replaced while the well is shut down. Since he expects it could take from 4 to 6 weeks for delivery, Mr. Hamer's recommendation was to order the bowl immediately, so Well #5 would have to serve as the City's source of water for only the week required to do the maintenance on Well #4. Mr. Childs commented that eventually the City would have to make some drastic changes to its water system but these temporary measures would buy time until the. EPA study on alternative water sources is completed. Motion by Councilmember- Enrooth and seconded by Councilmember Ranallo to approve the purchase of a new pump bowl for Well #4 from Layne Minnesota for $4,250. Motion carried unanimously. • Motion by Mayor Sundland and seconded by Councilmember Enrooth to adopt the resolu- tion which designates Clarence Ranallo to continue to serve as Mayor Pro Tem for the coming year.
