Bob Peck, 14081 Fondant-"How about the school, church, and village hall paying?" Answer-"The school and church are to be assessed. It will be determined by Council policy, actually." Vern Peloquin, 15226 Forest Blvd.-"When are the payments due?" Answer- "If paid in thirty days, thereis no interest, otherwise, paid generally with taxes." Willard Cummings, 5389 145th St.-"Will property owners be notified when payments are due?" Answer-"Yes, the Council will notify." "What is the date for completion?" Answer-"If the project is started in August or September and goes smoothly, it could be done by Spring. A contractor usually has 360 days for completion." Don Wenzel, 14124 Flay Avenue-"Where will people with sump pumps put their water?" "This should be put in a storm drain or on the ground to flow. Will not be put into the sewer line." The hearing was closed by Mayor Carlson at 9:00 PM. The Council was reconvened at the Hugo Village Hall at 9:45 PM by Mayor Carlson. Roll was called: Carlson, LaValle, Leroux, Bjorum, and Lease present. Clerk Burkard gave each council member a copy of minutes prepared by Ehlers and Associates, which stated names of objectors, along with a copy of the Sewer Resolution for discussion. Mayor Carlson read the names of objectors aloud, and what they objected to. Most objected to a change in plans. There were also two letters received objecting to the sewer going out on Egg Lake Road. Motion made by Carlson, seconded by Lease to adopt Resolution # 20, a resolution order- ing sanitary sewer improvement No. 1973-1 and directing the Engineer to prepare detailed plans and specifications. Discussion was then held by the Council on the motion. LaValle questioned whether plans could be changed after the resolution was passed. Howard Kuusisto said that they could be changed, and in fact might have to be to out back. Clerk Burkard wondered if people could petition for the sewer if they wanted it. Bob Ehlers stated that they could, and it could be added to the Bond Issue. Pam Bjorum brought up the fast that two people objected because the sewer was going to far, and two objected because it was not going far enough. The Council then voted on the motion and it passed unamiously. Motion made by Leroux, seconded by Lease to adjourn at 10:00 PM. Motion carried. Robert E. Burkard, Clerk
