<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />18 <br /> <br />we figured we might finance the planning of maybe $5,000. <br />At that point it was a fair amount of money and a good share <br />of that was already spent by the time we had that luncheon <br />because (inaudible) Mi1~er brought the initial plan for the <br />landscaping (inaudible) to encourage people to really see <br />(inaudible). My other comment, pointed at my good friend on <br />the Planning commission and Finance Committee, is that as I <br />recall our early 'days, Rod and I were (i.naudible) to the <br />original planning by a planner at that time which did designate <br />this area for development along County Road E for anything but <br />residential purposes and he took on the project that Arden Bills <br />meant to have a concept for it and he showed how it might be <br />.parce11ed into different size parcels of property and how they <br />might relate to each other, just hoping and praying that <br />somebody might like it and take advantage of that little pre- <br />liminary. sketching that he did, but it was a nice looking plan <br />and most 0f us were rather skeptical (inaudible). I think <br />we're still basically c0nservative as far as spending money of the <br />city. <br /> <br />MAYOR CREPEAU: Any other comments or questions? Anyone <br />at all? We try to answer anybody's questions and listen to <br />the pro or con. <br /> <br />MARGE ERICKSON PETERSON, co-Chairman of the Task Force: <br />I think the question of bike paths has been discussed by the <br />Committee and sidewalks wide en0ugh (inaudible) and I think <br />that's a valid question that needs to be addressed, and we're <br />concerned that the bike path at Johanna B0ulevard and d0wn to <br />Lexington - there's nothing' there, but there's a~so a county <br />plan to bring bike paths to Lexington through Shoreview and then <br />turning north on Lexington to get up to the nyn and we'd like <br />to explore the connection of those two bike paths as they either <br />start or end at the two points on County Road E as it exists <br />now so that's a mat ter before the commit 'lee. <br /> <br />MAYOR CREPEAU: Don Salverda is supposed to give us an <br />answer as to their plans but we haven't heard yet. If there <br />are no more questions or comments it's up to.the Council to <br />decide whether to proceed with the project. If the council <br />decides to proceed, the motion would be ordering the improve- <br />ment and preparation of plans. The improvement was petitioned <br />by at least 35% of the property owners and a simple majority <br />is needed to pass of 3/2 and if the Council wants to abandon <br />the project, this can be done by a simple motion and to close <br />the hearing.. Final action can be delayed up to six months <br />from this date. What is .the pleasure of the Council? <br /> <br />COUNCILMAN HANSON: I would like to add one further piece of <br />information. This is a little bit difficult in some respects <br />(inaudible) got some information with respect to fiscal disparities <br />which enabled her to calculate what our tax base is really going <br />to be for 1981, and on that basis, taking half of the $601,000 <br />to be put on general taxes - in other words, $300,000 - for 20 <br />years, and she took a high percent of interest at 10% - that <br />
