This meeting had been called for the purpose of discussing the proposed system statement as written by the Metropolitan Council. There was discussion on the possibility of an interchange at the intersection of 135W and County Road #14. The Clerk is to check Mr. Oberstar's files for information on that sub- ject. It was also suggested that she contact Centerville, Mr. Burman, Mr. Ed Karth and Mr. Tom Caron. On page 6, on the interchange add "based on anticipated use of this facility (Chain of Lakes Open Space Preserve) the collector, County Road #14 will be unable to handle the volume of traffic. The interchange will eliminate the necessity of upgrading County Road #23 and County Road #14. " In conjunction with the EQB meeting scheduled for Thursday, July 28, 1977 on the West Oaks of Bald Eagle, it was felt that on the Metropolitan Council's plan to include that area in Open Space should be dealt with at that meeting. The Council's position was they may ask for assistance to develop the area planned to be left open, but will not release control of the land. This is part of a long range plan of the City's. It was felt that the contributions this City has already made in that area should be pointed out in a pos- itive manner. The leadership of this City in getting Centerville Lake cleaned and the passage of the sign ordinance which gives this City far less visual pollution than other Citites. The City also has a very strict mining ordinance and the ordinances concerned with construction are all on the restrictive side. It was felt this meeting should be taped. The Clerk will get cassettes to fit Mr. Zelinka's recorder. Mr. Zelinka moved to adjourn at 10:05 P.M. Seconded by Mr. McLean. Aye. 1 1
