Manager Willis reviewed alternates for realignment of Larch
Lane at County Rood 9 including a western alignment through
the property west of the cemetery, an easterly route next to
Fire ;cation No. 2 and bringing it straight through Ivy's
property with a perpendicular intersection with County Road
9. There was a discussion of how costs for the road would
be assessed and how much work to do on a temporary basis.
Mayor Hilde summarized the conclusions of the Council as
follows: 1) the condition of the road is deplorable;
2) the road has an access problem now and will be impassable
in the winter; 3) the improvement of 49th Avenue will improve
the situation; <<nd 4) in view of the above, Council must
determine when a penaanent road will be built. Council
agreed Larch Lane should be constructed now if the alignmc.t
problem could be solved.
There was a discussion of the need for gravel street improve-
ments at this time for Vicksburg Lane north of County Road
9 to County Road 47 and Dunkirk Lane south of County Road
9 to T.H. 55. Councilman Spaeth stated Vicksburg Lane should
be improved to the point there would be some north -south
access to northeast Plymouth for police and fire protection.
Councilman Hunt felt there was a tremendous access problem
with numerous driveways on the road and was not in favor
of moving ahead with a permanent road until this problem
is resolved. Councilman Neils stated MSA funds would not
be available for this project in the next five years.
Coin-.ilman Hunt questioned if the project could be financed
by bonding against future MSA fu:ids as Zachary Lane and
West Medicine Lake Road were financed. Councilman Seibold
stated he felt we should move anead w;th the improvement
of Vicksburg Lane now.
MOTION was made by Councilman Hunt, seconded by Councilman
Spaeth, to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 77-593, A RESOLUTION
AUTHORIZING GRADING AND GRAVELLING OF LARCH LANE NORTH OF
COUNTY ROAD 9 TO 45TH AVENUE AND DUNKIRK LANE SOUTH OF
COUNTY ROAD 9 TO T.N. 55 FOR AN APPROXIMATE COST OF
80000.
Motion carried on a Roll Call vote, five ayes.
MOTION was made by Councilman Hunt, seconded by Councilman
Spaeth, tn adopt RESOLUTION NO. 77-594, A RF OLUTION

directing staff to research mothods of financing the
project taking MSA funds into consideration and the
possibility of bonding against them, researching addition-
al right-of-way that may be required and reviewing Council
policies limiting driveway access on roads of this type
and report back to Council fcr a decision on I:ow to
proceed.

Regular Council Meeting
October 17, 1977
Page 239
Councilman Hunt questioned how the west side of Pineview would
be assessed. Councilman Neils suggested following the same
procedure that was used on Brockton Lane, building the west
side of the road to rural design at the present time and
dividing unit costs down the center line with the west side
paying only for a rural section. Councilman Hunt replied
this would not be consistent with our policl and possihly the
policy should be amended to cover circumstances of this type.
MOTION was made by Councilman Aeils, seconded by Councilman
Hunt, to direct staff to review the existing policy relating
to assessments of streets and recommend changes to make the
policy consistent to recent Council practices in this regard.
MOTION TO AMEND was made by Councilman Hunt, seconded by
Councilman Spaeth, to incijde in the policy resolution methods
of interim financing to achieve the objective we have tried to
set to-) in the present policy resolution.

Environmental Committee; Councilman Seibold - Government Structure
and General Legislation Committee.
Council reviewed the City's Municipal Industrial Development
Bond Policy and discussed changes to the policy proposed by the
Manager and concerns they had about the present policy.
Councilman Hunt stated his key concerns were 1) the ratio of
capital equipment to land and structure covered by the
bonds and 2) amount of petitioner's capital investment.
Mayor Hilde stated the Aisk ,,,gas already been evaluated by the
bonding companies and the Cite should not demand an excessiv(.1
amount of additional financial data, He also stated since
Minnesota is losing a great amount of business to other
states, Plymouth should offer incentives to encourage businesses
to locate here and also compete with neighboring communities for
business in Plymouth to suprort the investments the City has
made to encourage coinnercial/industrial development.
Councilman Neils stated industrial re-renue bonds are not pug to
proper use by financing businesses who can get financing through
traditional borrowing. We must be careful of the degree to wh-rh
we extend anproval of municipal revenue bonds on the single issue
of offsetting the disadvantages the State of Minnesota offers.
Tt is important that we use municipal revenue bonds to attract
the types of industries that would not come here in greats
numbers without incentive and that we purse? a conservative
attitude on this to assure we do not have my defaulted bonds
wit Plymouth's nanr-. He felt a proper purpose for the!;e bona;
wruld be to help a businesswhi;h has been in Plymouth fl)r years
