Public hearing opened,
Mr. Minder Johnson, 3510 Kilmer Lane, said lie had a complaint about
Kilmer Lane. He rquested the Engineer make a survey of the increased
traffic going though there; the efamage incurred to the concute curb
and gutter and blacktop street surface. lie said a bettar job could
have been done for $12.57/front foot and doesn't feel the benefit is
worth thecost. Also, that traffic to the scnool has been detoured
there andtraffic off County Road #18. lie feels the County should
pay for some of the road damage. Engineer Bovestroo said the Village
has executed a contract with the Hennepin Count; Highway Department
to restore all roads and other damages which they incur, which
included the concrete curb and gutters. Mr. Johnsoo feels the
cautractor poured the zoncrete too soon for the curb and gutters
resulting in a poor job. Engineer Bonestroo said the contractor was
under bond and doubted if this is true, but will have a-. inspection
made.
tayor Hilde asked Mr. .iohnson if the roads and curb and gutters are
restored will he still feel the assessment is too high and he said
yes. lie thinks the Village should assume some of the cost because
the school and apartment dwellers are henefitting from the road
too. Ile was told th;ls is merely a temporary situation and only
involves the first fourlots on Kilmer Lane. lie complained too
about children cutting through his property to and from school.
They hang avound his equipment and smoke and drink in the area.
lie recommended a fence be installed in back of the school to
prevent this and force the children to use 34th and 36th Avenue.,
Councilman Hintz told Mr. Johnson that the Village has no control
over school property. public hearing closed.
ItO ION was ma("e by Councilman Humphrey second by Councilman Kindseth CZE: SCNOOL DISTRIC',

the business adjacent ant! abutting the road end is considered a village
street. Mr. Shinofield said it seems that everyone using this road benefits

streets and local streets which serve local citizens. At the ,•_,esent time
in cases where roads are asked for they are assessed 100` even if it is a
thoroughfare, The Village does not have funds to act otherwise,
