8.0 Unfinished Business
8.1 Vail removing dike on Brevig Property
Mr. Richard Vail appeared and stated that he put the dike in per
instruction from the Rice Creek Water Shed. He stated he has no
intention of removing the dike. LaValle stated the dike should be
on the easement and not on private property. City is aware of problem:
Rice Creek has nothing on file as far as issuing a permit for in—
stallation of the dike. It would not be economical to move the
dike at this time.
Vail — If the government told me where to put the dike, they should
remove it.
LaValle — The dike is now being used as a road.
Lease — asked City Attorney, Mr. Johnson, what to do now.
Johnson — If the dike is on private property, it is a matter between
the property owner and the developer. The city could block the
right—of—way from being used as a road.
Kuusisto — Matter was discussed by the City Council. Council was
to make suggestions to Rice Creek.
Johnson —One alternative would be to negotiate with land owner
to m've easement.
LaValle — Will check further in our minutes, and with Rice Creek.
Nothing can be done now.
Brevig — would like to sell back two acres of property. The dike
has defaced and devalued the back property. Lost rental in my
garage, and encourages snowmobiling. Brought this matter up three
months ago, and nothing has been done since.
c ase — I would like to table this matter until we look at our
10A-cords and check with McClellan at Rice Creek.
Lease — your biggest problem selling the two acres will not be with
the drainage but with our Comprehensive Plan.
LaValle — The city can put a snow fence across the dike.
Brevig — How long can I anticitpate this matter will be tabled?
Lease — Not until we can check with all sources. We cannot do anything
this winter. Hopefully, everything will be negotiated this spring.
