Motion carried ~uianimously. A Credit Memo was received fran Northland Insurance indicating that as of January 1, 1969, we have a credit of $1,572.00 for Worlcmen~s Compiensation. It is due to changing the Fire Department to a 100 Volunteer Organization. Public Hearing continued at 8:00 P.M. on Storm Sewer Project 1969-1 in northwest corner of the Village. Brad Lemberg: Under this storm sewer project, the County hasn~t been notified by Roseville. The County has lead us to believe that unless we go along with it, it won't be done. They are not upgrading until the catch basins are in. The County is having Mr. Floyd Snyker, Assistant County Engineer, come up tonight. Attorney Seed: If the road were to obstruct the natural flowage and cause it to back up, then the County would have an obligation to keep t~ drainage as it was prior to the roads construction. The property owners could have a cause of action. Brad Lemberg: The road caused no drainage problem until the development of that area. When the developer filled the area, he put in the minimum amount of fill and, consequently, some of the lots are below maximum grade. We are dumping out water without authorization with that culvert. If the County participates, it will put the catch basins in along its right-ofway. Engineer Lemberg Previously, we would be paying $].1G,000 to Roseville to provide to Residents: drainage to the northwest corner. The question was raised as to what the County would do ~,rith RASelawn. Since the last meeting, we have seen Roseville's plans. They do not show catch basins on Prior and Autumn along Roselawn and removing the existing culvert put in a couple of years ago. It is the assumption that the County and Falcon Heights are going in. Fairview and Tatum has a stub for a manhole on Prior. We would still basically have the over-the-ground flow as we do now. Again, I say that this is with the assuu~tion that Falcon Heights and the County are going. Martin Joyce: I am on the Maplewood Village Council and an Attorney engaged by some of the residents of the northwest area. I can readily understand. your position here due to my experience in Maplewood. This is the type of thing that people fail to see the benefit of. Obviously, the people can only take so much because of the property tax and one assessment after another. Would the County allow us to participate in this type of project if there would be an accumulation of water on their right-of moray?
