MARCH 13, 1978 ` f <br /> Mrs. Waller <br /> 14310 Homestead Avenue North - felt you could get a much better picture of the <br /> averages of cost if the Council had taken a fiv <br /> year figure rather than one year. <br /> Jim Smith <br /> 13550 Homestead Ave. No. - did not remember the city spending 90% of the road <br /> budget in the rural area. Also stated that the <br /> city mortgaged the rural area to float bonds for <br /> improvements in the urban area. <br /> Dennis Strandberg <br /> 16831 Elmcrest Ave. No. - did not feel the tax increase was justified because <br /> of the 10 acre minimum in the rural area. <br /> Jeff Hughes <br /> Wild Wings - felt that the services have not been up to par. The rural is much <br /> larger, and $ for $, is not getting as much service for area <br /> serviced. <br /> Larry Ehret <br /> 14564 Keystone- The Comprehensive Plan states that the city is to maintain a <br /> rural atomosphere. The land owners are being required to keep <br /> large acreage. If they are forced into a higher taxing situa- <br /> tion, it will be difficult to keep rural. <br /> Greg Cardinal <br /> 5756 165th St. No. - felt that the township operated on a less costly level. <br /> He said he personally has never had to make phone call <br /> for assistance. <br /> Roland Stricklin <br /> 8980 170th St. NO. - asked if street lights cost is an amount of money that <br /> would be paid by the people that want them or is paid by <br /> the city. <br /> Spitzer - street lights are paid for out of the road budget. <br /> JoAnn Jensen <br /> 530 11th Ave. SE - how much is the city paying Washington County to take care <br /> of County Road 4? <br /> Spitzer - you pay whether you live on a county road or not. <br /> Arnold Gruett <br /> 12433 Ingersoll Ave. No. - how many new homes are going in this area a year? <br /> Spitzer - could not give a number. We are only talking about reapportionment <br /> of taxes. The city will not get more money, and would not have to <br /> review every year. <br /> Pam Bjorum <br /> 12633 Keller Ave. No. - the fact that you. .spend more money does not reflect <br /> higher level of service. No matter how much money, <br /> we do not get the same level of service. <br /> Joe Gregoire <br /> 16520 Henna Ave. No. - voiced his complaint about the road conditions of <br /> Henna Avenue. <br />
