Motion carried. Mr. Land, Mr. Hangi, and Mr. Ridler again appeared in regard to obtaining building permits for their lots on 170th Street. They were at the meeting of October 7th, but the building inspector was not present. Mayor Lease read aloud a report on the entire situation from the building inspector. Mr. Crever had checked perc tests taken on the land some time ago, and advised Mr. Ridler to contact Bill Schwab of the County to find a solution to the septic problem. Letters had been received in the Clerk's office from Rice Creek Watershed regarding proposed ditch construction on the property, and they found the proposed ditch construction satisfactory with certain conditions. Marvin LaValle and Howard Kuusisto visited the site, and Howard said the ground water table is much lower than it was previously, and the County ditch might have some bearing on the drainage. He felt elevations should be taken. The perc rate seems to be good when the ground is dry. He also sug- gested finding alternate drainfield sites. New perc tests were taken a short time ago and pass, according to the building inspector. The building inspector felt these people should have a soils expert take soil borings, and elevations and decide where to put the drainfields. Lease and Martin felt if the pert tests passed, they couldn't be denied building permits. Mayor Lease suggested these people have Don Hult design systems to work, as he took the latest perc tests, and he requested Howard to take elevations. Tom Crever, the inspector, is to look over all the applications and plans as submitted. The meeting recessed and a Public Hearing opened at 8:00 PM for the applica- tion of Lloyd J. Johnson, 13005 Ingersoll Ave., for a Mobile Home Permit. The Clerk read aloud the notice published in the Forest Lake Times. Mayor Lease explained that Mr. Johnson was applying for the permit under the Hard- ship clause, as his mother-in-law has cancer, and they would like the home for her. The building inspector is to check on what size septic system should be put in for the trailer. Hearing closed at 8:05 PM and the meeting resumed.
