City Council meeting of April 21, 1997 Page 6 Commission may then consider adopting appropriate zoning controls for adult uses as part of its revision of the City's zoning ordinance. Miron made motion, Barnes seconded, to adopt RESOLUTION 1997-7, A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING FINDINGS OF FACT THAT ZONING REGULATIONS OF SEXUALLY -ORIENTED BUSINESSES ARE NECESSARY TO NIIND&ZE THE SECONDARY ADVERSE EFFECTS OF SUCH BUSINESSES IN THE CITY OF HUGO. VOTING AYE: Barnes, Goiffon, Johnson, Leroux, Miron Motion Carried. Brown's Creek Uudate The Council reviewed a copy of the time schedule that Washington County Soil and Conservation Service has recommended to the Washington County Board for establishing an outlet from the School Section/Goggins Lake basin. Based on this time schedule, it is probable no relief will be realized by the City's residents in this area until 1999. It may be possible to speed up construction of the outlet to the fall of this year, if Washington County, the cities of Grant and Hugo, and May Township enter into a Joint Powers Agreement, allowing the County to construct the project using the Chapter 444 authority granted to cities. This would avoid the lengthy process of amending the Comprehensive Storm Water Management Plan for Brown's Creek. Staff recommended that representatives of the communities meet to discuss the possibility of such an Agreement. Miron made motion, Leroux seconded, directing the City Attorney, Greg Galler, to set up a meeting with the cities of Grant and Hugo, Washington County, and May Township, to discuss a proposed Joint Powers Agreement that Mr. Galler will prepare for discussion at the joint meeting. All aye. Motion Carried. Miscellaneous The Mayor presented a copy of a letter he had received from MnDOT regarding a safety study done at the intersection of T.H. 61 and 148th Street, at the request of Henry Schnider.

The Council discussed the recent change of ownership at RJ's and the fact that the new owner does not have a liquor license, and the ramifications should he sell liquor without a license.
