MINUTES OF THE PROCEEDINGS OF THE HUGO CITY COUNCIL
May 22, 1985
The additional regular meeting was called to order at 6:10 PM.
PRESENT: Hauer, Peltier, Potts, Schwab, McAllister
City Engineer, Howard Kuusisto
WILSON TOOL
The Council reviewed the License Agreement that will enable Wilson Tool to proceed
with the construction of a sanitary sewer service line to their proposed 40,000 square
foot addition. Clause 9 refers to the recovery of costs should another property
owner want to connect to the line in later years, as Wilson Tool will be paying
the entire cost of the project. It was determined that an ordinance change will
be required in order to be able to collect these costs.
MOTION: Schwab made motion, Peltier seconded, to approve and accept the license
agreement between Wilson Tool and the City of Hugo, and authorize the
Mayor and City Clerk to sign the agreement.
All aye. Motion Carried.
ONEKA LAKE WATER PROBLEM
Councilman Potts submitted an additional proposal to try and resolve this matter at
the Council meeting of 5/20/85. After review, it was determined by Engineer Kuusisto
that the additional ditching on the east side of Oneka Lake Boulevard would be
$3,000.00, or a total project cost of approximately $11,000.00
For the record, it was the concensus of the Council that the City go through
the Alex Zaluckyj property to lower the lake level. The city will prepare an
agreement between Mr. Zaluckyj and city. The agreement will be submitted to
Mr. Zaluckyj in advance of a special meeting to discuss the proposal. Mr. Zaluckyj
will have the opportunity to accept or reject the proposal at a public meeting.
If the proposal is not accepted, the City Council will, at that meeting, be prepared
to initiate condemnation proceedings.
The project could be funded by two possible sources of revenue: issuance of bonds
or borrow money from the general fund and repay after a payment schedule, with in-
terest, is prepared by the City Council.
The Council agreed that some form of action be taken on the Oneka Lake matter this
summer. (MRS. PELTIER LEFT THE MEETING AT 7:07 PM). The Council felt it was crucial
that people be aware that the sole purpose of the project was to lower Oneka Lake
to its ordinary -high -water -mark as set by the DNR. There will be no guarantees that
the project will alleviate any residential or agricultural water problems.
Mayor McAllister stated that if City Attorney Johnson is unable to prepare the agree-
ment because of time restraints, he has the authority to hire temporary, outside,
legal counsel.
MOTION: Potts made motion, Hauer seconded, that the Mayor and Clerk be authorized
to formulate an agreement and letter to Alex Zaluckyj stating the proposals
discussed at this meeting.
All aye. Motion Carried.
