• the community with the bulk of the work done by the City staff to meet the requirements of the Metropolitan Land Planning Act. The Mayor Pro Tem who serves on the advisory committee said that that body was formulating guidelines and setting up workshops which might be helpful to the City in determining what will be necessary to meet the require- ments. She also expressed an interest in participating in the antici- pated meeting with one of the shopping center owners regarding a co- ordination of renovation efforts. The meeting was recessed from 7: 43 p.m. and reconvened at 7:45 p.m. for the hearing on the allocation of Revenue Sharing Funds . Mr. Fornell discussed his proposal that some of the $79, 000 which will be available to the City as of September 30, 1977 could be allocated in the 1978 budget for capital expenditures for those vehicles and equip- ment which will meet the requirements for permissible expenditures for local governments of the Revenue Sharing Funds. Consideration of alterna- tives could be discussed during the Council 's next budget hearing. The hearing was closed at 8: 50 p.m. An addendum to the agenda, the Oktoberfest celebration, was then dis- cussed. Tony Strouth, one of the coordinators of the event, identified the various civic organizations who will sponsor the celebration in the City and asked permission that the proposed activities be held in Central • Park October 15th. He also requested a license be granted for a four piece kiddy concession and that the required license fees as well as the clean up deposit be waived. Mr. Strouth asked that the City's liability insurance cover the use of the Ramsey County showmobile as had been done in the past. Since none of the sponsoring organizations have dram shop insurance it would appear there will be no beer served during the event. The coordinator said events to be held in the City in conjunction with the Oktoberfest would include a Monte Carlo Night at Apache on Friday and a skating event for youngsters sponsored by Disco Skate. At 8: 00 p.m. the Mayor Pro Tem opened the Assessment Hearing on Street Improvement 1976-1 which was scheduled for that time but then recessed the hearing for ten minutes to allow Council action on the Oktoberfest. Motion by Councilman Sundland and seconded by Councilman Sauer to grant permission to the St. Anthony Jaycees to hold the requested Oktoberfest celebration in Central Park October 15, 1977 subject to an insurance rider being attached to the Jaycees ' liability insurance naming the City as an additional insured. Motion carried unanimously. Motion by Councilman Sauer and seconded by Councilman Sundland to author- ize the City at no extra cost to acquire an insurance binder to cover the Ramsey County showmobile on which Ramsey County will be listed as an additional insured.
