%D City Council meeting of 1/19/88 the building was not to be used to house animals. The applicants are now requesting that this building be used to house animals although they have failed to specify how many. It is our understanding that the applicants have proceeded with the remodeling of the building in question and that the required building permit to mage such modifications has not been secured. At the December 21, 1987 regular meeting of the Hugo City Council, action was taken denying the SUP request based on the information discussed at that time. William Simonet, speaking on behalf of Ms. Pfurstchleller at the meeting, stated that there was no bartering taking place between the owners of the horses, a total of b animals (2 owned by Ms. Pfurtscheller and 4 that are boarded.) Mr. Simonet also stated that the allegation that animals are allowed to roam unattended on the Pfurstscheller property is inaccurate. Neighbors of Ms. Pfurtscheller were present to testify that they had witnessed the animals grazing outside of the corraled area. Mayor Atkinson noted that the applicant was already in violation of the special permit conditions they agreed to at the Planning Commission level. He questioned how much they could be trusted to comply if the permit had beena pproved by the City Council. If the City Council feels that either, information was deleted or new information has been provided that would affect the previous decision of the City Council regarding this matter, the City Council may reconsider this request by motion of 1 of the 4 members voting to deny the permit. Because none of the four dissenting voters introduced a motion for reconsideration (Potts, Olson, Vail, Atkinson), the motion for denial of the application for a SUP for the boarding of horses made by Jeanette Pfurtscheller stands as voted on at the Council meeting of 12/21/87. APPOINTMENT OF ACTING MAYOR Potts made motion, Atkinson seconded, to adopt RESOLUTION 1988-5, RESOLUTION DESIGNATING DEANE VAIL AS ACTING MAYOR FOR THE YEAR 1988. VOTING AYE: Peltier, Potts, Olson, Atkinson ABSTAINED: Vail Motion Carried. 8.1 ORDER LAW ENFORCEMENT SQUAD CAR As per previous Council direction, the staff has been working with Washington County in an effort to purchase a sheriff's squad car as opposed to the lease arrangement provided for in previous law enforcement agreements. Recognizing the financial advantages of the city purchasing the vehicle and leasing it back to the county, said county has agreed to this arrangement for the 1988 fiscal year. Rather than ordering 14 replacement squad cars for the sheriff's fleet, they are ordering only 13 squads and allowing the city to purchase the 14th vehicle through the same bidding arrangement. The total purchase price of this vehicle from Polar Chevrolet in White Bear Lake is $10,999.00, and is per bids received by the Ramsey County Sheriff's Department. Potts made motion, Olson seconded, that the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to sign Purchase Order #0107 for the purchase of a sheriff's squad car from Polar Chevrolet in the amount.of $10,999.00. All aye. Motion Carried.
