Mr. Jim Mayeda of the Minnesota Department of Transportation was present to discuss the State Sign Ordinance and the status of the City's Sign Ordinance. Mr. McLean brought Mr. Mayeda up to date on the City's efforts to get the Sign Irdinance No. 51 certified. Mr. Mayeda explained that he had taken over this position in 1973 and was unaware of the City's efforts to get certification. The person to contact is Mr. Robert Brennan, and he will call the office tomor- row with the proper address. Mr. Mayeda suggested sending a copy of the 1972 letter, write a cover letter and enclose a copy of .the Ordinance, and ask for certification. Mr. Mayeda asked that a copy of this correspondence be forwarded to his office. Mayor Karth thanked him for his time and information. The Clerk presented the hrd shells for Lakes Add. #5. Mr. McLean moved to autohorize the Mayor and Clerk to sign for the City. Seconded by Mr. Kulaszewicz. Motion declared passed. The representive from MARDON homes was present. He requested permis- sion to obtain a building permit on the lot nearest 77th street. This is for a model. Mr. Locher said the abstract is finished but he has not submitted his his report on the title as yet. He has no information on the status of the funds for Park purposes and no letter of credit for the streets. The Council was asked if it is possible to pay the Park funds when the permits are issued and Mr. McLean said the Ordinance stated that the funds must be paid before the hars shells are signed. Mr. Locher said the Council did consider a per lot fee but according to the research that he has done, this is not legal. It was felt this would be passed on to the buyer and the Park funds are the re- sponsibility of the developer. Mr. McLean said the request here is for a building permit for a model home. Since the home is proposed to face an intermal street, Mr. Gotwald suggested a letter of credit for the completion of the street in front of that lot in order to insure the salability of the home if something should stall the plat.
