A lengthy discussion continued relating to drainage and a second access for the project. Developer Jack Kornovich, agreeing that a second access was necessary, suggested that the City approve 25 homes, and when a second access is acquired, approve the balance of the development. Administrator Museus felt that a meeting of two Council members, the developer, the City Engineer, and himself could resolve issues raised by residents and the Council. Leroux made motion, Brunotte seconded, that the City postpone action on WHITE BEAR MEADOWS to allow time for the developer, staff, City engineer, and Council members Barnes and Miron to meet and resolve issues. A recommendation to be provided to the full Council for their approval. All aye. Motion Carried.
