Motion carried, three ayes, with Mayor, Hilde abstain- ing, PETITIONS. REQUESTS B COM14UNICATIONS The Council was presented with four requests for lot consoli- dations. The Manager explained these were not legal consoli- dations but would combine property for tax purposes only. There was discussion regarding the Council's original intent in granting these consolidations, and the Mayor polled the Coun- cil whether they felt we should continue with these practices in view of the fact that it has now been learned that combining lots into one legal description would require the process of replat- ting. It was the cons+_nsus of the Council that they would have no objection in the chses where the new combined parcel is not larger than one building lot but that the consolidation process should not provide assessment sanctuaries. It was agreed that making a legal consolidation of the lots would be preferable but that the costs involved might be prohibitive.

W. H. Williams explain ,he felt SETBACK VARIAs10ES the 10% park dedication was excessive considering the addition- Item 5-B al drainage easement he is required to give the Village and the fact that half the land is under Pinetree Pond, The Manager explained the process by which the market value of land is deter- mined - in this instance $15,000 - and that the park dedication ordinance does not address itself to granting credits for flood plain storage. The Council agreed the $15,000 figure was accurate but that the 105 dedication requirement is not equitable in the cases of small parcels of land such as this. Councilr4n Neils pointed out the intent of the ordinance was to apply to larger parcels of land prior to platting and that once the platting has occurred it raises the marketability of the land and increases its value. MOTION was made by Mayor Hilde, seconded by Councilman Spaeth, to defer action on the Final Plat and Development Coatract of Williams Woods and directed the staff, on the basis of the foregoing dis- cussion, to develop an amendment to our policy resolution on park dedication whereby small parcels of land are valued in the same manner as similar types of land within a larger piece of land. MOTION was made by Councilman Neils to amend the motion to include the setting of a ceiling that park dedication not exceed $250 per dwelling unit in an Rw1 or R-2 area. Motion failed for lack of second. Motion carried, five ayes. The petition of Wayne R. Jopp requested the creation of three parcels from existing Lots 1 and 2, Block 2, Med-O-Lake Acres 2nd -Addition and the vacated portion of Union Terrace lane ori the north side of 32nd Avenue, Attorney Bert Nygaard appeared representing Mr. Jopp. The staff explained the manner in which the two existing lots were assessed in 1970 and proposed that parcel #3 be considered as an additional lot to be created and assessed for water and sewer lateral chArges on its 107.8 foot fronts9e. After discussion regarding these assessments, the Council concluded the assessment should be based on the trial frontage of the three lots on 32nd Avenue and ti, %. the or i gi, al assessment rate should be used with interest --ptali=Ed frum the date of the assessment roll, MOTION was made by Cr-uncilman Scibold, seconded by Councilman Neils, to adopt RESC:.UTInN NO. 73-1,359 A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE DIVISION OF LOTS 1 AND 2, BLOCK 2, MED -O -LAKE ACRES 2ND ADDITION AND THE VACATEA PORTT01; IF WON TERRACE LANE TO CREATE THREE PARCELS, Moti^n %. 1 "ed on a Loll Call vote, three ayes, with Councilman Hent absLO ;:.g -,hd councilman Spaeth voting nay. hj WAYNE R.

The Manager explained this new lot was created in large measure from the va- cated street -right of way and that he did not feel park dedication should be required, MOTION,was made by Councilman Spaeth, seconded by Councilman Neils, to adopt RESOLUTION NO, 73-1369 A RESOLUTION PROVIDINC 110T RESOLUTION N0., 73-135 NOT BE FILED WITH THE COUNTY UNTIL THE FOUR CONDITIONS AS SET FORTH IN THE STAFF REPORT DATED MARCH 26, 1973 ARE MET, RESOLUTION NO, 73-136 MOTION was made by Councilman Neils, seconded by Councilman Seibold.`to amend condition #3 to take into account an addi- tional assgssment such that the net result would be an assess- ment for the total frontage on 32nd Avenue North with interest capitalized from the date of the assessment roll,, (Amend, 4-1643) Motion to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 73-136 as amended carried on a Roll Call vote, three ayes, with Councilmen Hunt and Spaeth voting nay, The petitioner requested the division of Lot 1. Lake Park Acres Addition, into two parcels of 20.163 square feet and 19,808 square feet respectively, It was the staff's recommendation that the division be denied because of the fact that sanitary sewer is not available, Mark Burns appeared representing the petitioner and explained they wish to divide the southern lot off to be sold as a building lot but that they have no intention of selling the northern lot at this time, He stated they were under the impression that utilities could be made available to this southern lot. There followed discussion whether or not the development policy would apply in this instance in view of the fact that the petitioner is requesting that a building lot be broken off from another parcel. There was also discussion regarding whether or not park dedication should be required and if additional street right of way was necessary, MOTION was made by Councilman Neils, seconded by Councilman,Hunt, to defer action on the request of Orpha Kranz pending re%;ommenda- tions from the Manager on street right of way, exact location of sewer and water service with respect to this southern parcel and consideration of park dedication requirements.

Motion car- ried, five ayes. REPORTS BY OFFICERS, BOARDS b COMMITTEES The Manager explained that the Village towing contract has expir- ed and has been continued on an informal basis because of some concern expressed regarding the application of the ordinance. Councilman Hunt stated the majority of the complaints he had re•J celved involved people not being able to call their own towing contractor, .The Council felt motorists should be able to do so if their vehicle is not hindering traffic. Councilman Spaeth also pointed out the problem of people being unable to reach their homes because of lack of snow plowing and having no alter- native but to park on the street. The Manager explained that the police cannot use the County radio to have calls placed to independent towing companies but that in many instances they will drive a motorist to a phone, There are instances, however, when there is an accident involved or they have received another call wh_n this is not possible, It was the general opinion of the Council that the ordinance does not need changing but that it 1s a judgment factor on the part of the officers involved to aid motorists whenever possible when a vehicle is not posing a safety hazard, MOTION was made by Mayor Hilde, seconded by Councilman Spaeth, i1recting the Manager to indicate to the Police Department that It is the desire of the Council to practice as much courtesy as iossible in these cases and offer as much practical assistance as the situation will allow to persons needing a tow particularly if %he citizen wishes to get to a telephone to call his own ser- vice. Motion carried, four ayes, with Mayor Hilde voting nay, indicating lie felt the Police Department was at present doing a good ,job in this area, The Manager indicated the staff new contract can be awarded, will now solicit bids so that a VILLAGE TOWING CONTRACT Item 6-D When the Comprehensive Sewer Plan was adopted, it was indicated SANITARY SEWER SERVICE IN to the Metropolitan Sewer Board that the Village would be con- NORTHERN PART OF VILIAGE sidering the possibility of deviating a portion of the flow in Item 6-G the northern portion of the Villagp into Maple Gi*%ve and/or Brooklyn Park. The Manager indicated that planning a 5 -year Capital Improvement Program will be somewhat limited if we do not at this time undertake a study to determine what areas could reasonably be served to the north and pursuing this with the Metropolitan Sewer Board to see if this is possible. There has been increateC interest from developers in the northeastern part of the Village for development, A report was reviewed from Consulting Engineer Bonestroo setting forth the specifics of the study to be made at a cost not to exceed $2,500, V i Regular Council Meeting April 2. 1973 Page Six Hans Hagen of Ban Con, Inc. appeared before the Council explaining they have a purchase agreement on 120 acres on the south side of Pike Lake, He requested the Council consider negotiating with. Maple Grove to extend sewer service from another development of theirs on the north side of the lake to serve ,this proposed development area and also the Pike Lake Addition. He stated this extension would provide capacity for 10 to :5 years, Mayor Hilde questioned the Council if they were in favor of encour- aging a good deal of development this far from the nucleus of the Village and undertake the improvements that would be necessary, Councilman Hunt pointed out that the proposed Ran Con development would require only a few blocks of trunk line and that the developer would install their own utilities thereby causing no bonded indebted- ness to the Village. Councilman, Neils stated he did not feel the Village should encourage development in this area if capacity is not available to the north as it would allow a very significant leapfrog over undeveloped areas, MOTION was made by Councilman Hunt, seconded by Councilman RESOLUTION NO, 73-137 Spaeth, to -adopt RESOLUTION NO, 73-137. A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING THE PROPOSAL FOR THE STUDY AS OUTLINE; IN THE REPORT FROM (Amend, 4-1643) ENGINEER BONESTR00. Motion carried on a Roll Call vote, five ayes.

THE HUGHES 1ST„AND 2ND ADDITIONS AND THE PROPOSED ROGER L. JOHNSON IST ADDITION. Mayor Hilde raised the question of whether this additional flow will cause difficulties with the intercepter betweenLift Station A and Lift Station 1 in view'of the freeze on Federal funding for this type project. It was concluded that this addi- tional flow will create a heavier burden on this line but that since the approval has already beef given for this extension. (Amend, 44643) the only alternative available at this time is to restrict any further development in this area as proposed by the resolution. Motion to adopt RESOLUTION N0. 13428 carried on a Roll Call vote, five, ayes.

Motion carried on a Roll Call vote, ft r ayes, with Councilman Hunt voting nay. The Manager presented to the Council a proposed weed ordinance. VILLAGE CLEAN-UP At the present time the Village is governed by S+ate Statutes PROGRAM regulating the control and eradication of noxious weeds, The Item 6-E proposed ordinance would also call for the cutting and removal of grass and other vegetation and the grading and maintenance of vacant lots within 100 feet of residential districts. Coun- cilman Neils stated he felt the 155 administration charge over actual costs should be increaso,d to 255. Ths Manager explained this is a question of how much of the total costs the Village wishes to recover. A good deal of the work involves getting anluntary compliance, The Council discussed whether or not open farm land and unplatted areas should be included within these regulations. It was felt these areas could be deleted in that the State Statutes stake care oil the noxious weed problems in these areas. Councilman Hunt suggested the inspectors when sending out first notices to property owners also supply the names of a couple cut- ters advising the people that these people will do the job for a certain rate, but that if they do not have the cutting done them- selves, they will be ao4sessed a higher rate when the Village is required to do the work, he Council authorized the staff to proceed with an ordinance amendment along the lines of the ordinance proposed deleting reference to open land, o guiar Council Meeting April 2, 1973 Page,)mine > The staff also,,presented to the Council proposals for a general Village clean-up,which would either involve the Village contract- ing with priv4te haulers to do curb -side pickup on certain days or contracting with dumping sites for the privilege of permitting Village residents to',dump there within a specified period of time. The Manager also submitted a proposal of obtaining the services of an employee through the Urban Corps Program and the creation of Neighborhood Environmental Awareness Teams (NEAT) for neighborhood clean-ups.
