This request was reviewed by the Hugo Planning Commission on June 24, 1987, at which time said commission recommended renewal of the Mining Permit subject to special conditions. After review of the submitted Mining Permit, the Council recommended the following changes be made: Item 5 - Delete "crankcase oil" Item 12 - Change times from 7:00 AM and 7:30 PM to 7:00 AM and 7:00 PM. Atkinson made motion, Potts seconded, for the continuation of the SUP and approval of the Mining Permit for Richard F. Schuh to operate a gravel pit and materials processing facility at the Goiffon/Hansen pits, effective July 6, 1987 until July 5, 1988, a copy of which is on file at the office of the City Clerk. All aye. Motion Carried. 8.F Dike Improvement Project (Ed Fashingbauer) In the fall of 1984, the city undertook a project to improve road conditions on Goodview Avenue just north of 125th Street. For many years the city had problems with flooding and road erosion on Goodview just north of the Fashingbauer home. The city entered into an agreement with the Fashingbauers in the spring of 1984, and the city proceeded to construct a dike and improve the ditch allowing for better drainage in this area which resulted in improved road conditions. The city constructed a small dike west of Goodview Avneue on the Fashingbauer property to retain water in a ponding area located east and slightly north of the Fashingbauer home. In the spring of 1987, the ponding area dried up and the Fashingbauers feel that the water once held in the pond is seeping through the dike constructed by the city and is draining into the ditch adjacent to Goodview Avenue. They have requested that the city undertake a project, with the city engineer's guidance, to correct this problem at city expense. City Adminstrator, Ken Huber, reviewed this request with Howard Kuusisto and Tom Fast., who are suggesting improvements to the dike that may correct this problem. Estimated cost of the improvement if $1,000.00, which is not budgeted in 1987. Tom Fast, present at the Council meeting, reviewed the history of the project, as well as what steps could be taken to correct the problem. Kuusisto Engineering is recommending that a 2' wide trench be dug out along the dike 4' deep and be filled with a clay material. Mr. Tom Fast stated that they are not 100% sure that this will totally alleviate the leeching. Atkinson made motion, Vail seconded, that the City Council authorizes the expend- iture of up to $1,000.00 to attempt to seal the area around the pipe opening and dike as well as any other apparent deficiencies. All aye. Motion Carried. The Council recessed the meeting at 8:10 PM to observe a demonstration of the hydro spreader by the Hugo Fire Department. The meeting reconvened at 8:22 PM. 9.A Volunteer Fire Fighter Resignation Peltier made motion, Atkinson seconded, to accept the resignation of Jeffrey Pearson from the Hugo Fire Department effective 6/1/87. All aye. Motion Carried. It was the consensus of the City. Council that, in the future, the Council be notified of any such resignations, but no formal action will be required.
