Motion carried. Joint Meeting -Council -Planning Commission Martin Ziebell-Soil Conservation Servine Martin Ziebell, of the Soil Conservation Service met with Council and Planning Commission members to introduce them to services now available to them through his office. He left a copy of Soil Inter- pretations and the Soil Survey Photomaps for Rice Creek Watershed Dis- trict for use in our community. He explained each community in the Rice Creek Watershed will be furnished one copy of this survey. He also left a copy of the Urban Erosion Control Handbook. He explained that additional copies of the Erosion Control handbook could be ob- tained through his office for $1.50 per copy. 11HYdrology Handbook is also available to engineers also thru his office. He explained that, while in the past, his office dealt primarily with agricultural aspects, in the past eight years have expanded ser- vices to include communities. Previous soil survey maps aimed at ag- ricultural uses of soil and because of the need for more detailed in- formation, the Soil Survey is beinv updated and work in the,northern half of the county is either completed, or scheduled for completion by the end of this field season. Information contained in this survey is invaluable to land use planning; it lists such things as the seas- onal water table, soil textures, amount of slope, eto. He explained the importance of the building inspector being trained to use this information. Spitzer requested an additional copy of the Soils Survey for the City Engineer. Ziebell said if it is possible he will obtain one for him. Spitzer also asked if it would be possible to get a larger map made for Hugo. Ziebell said it might be possible, but at Hugo's expense. Ziebell would like a cooperative agreement that Hugo wants to use the Soil Survey information and the Soil Conservation District is willing to provide it. When an evaluation is wanted on some prop- erty, a written request must be made showing the proposed land use. Although he prefers working with large parcels of land, such as dev- elopments, he will work with requests for smaller parcels. Use of this material should lead to better land use planning, he said. Spitzer said he feels this information should be of much benefit to Hugo. Motion made by Peltier, seconded by Ehret, to adjourn at 10:27PM. Motion carried. _ r MaryJane' Babcock, Secretary Hugo Planning Commission
