(As an aside, the City I previously worked for had an ordinance providing that the roof and building exterior of all sides of any residential building (including garages and accessory buildings) had to be finished within 12 months of the issuance of the building permit for all new construction, alterations, or relocations) 10. Ordinance #249; Re: Speed Limit on Lake Johanna: Final reading of the Ordinance limiting speed on Lake Johanna. Upon approval by Council, the Ordinance will be submitted to the DNR, who sends it through Ramsey County. After their approval, the Ordinance will be published, and become effective. II. Parks Director Report: John Buckley will be present to discuss his Agenda items. 12. Public Safety/Works Committee: Paul Malone will be out of town so will be unable to make a presentation; however, the PS/W minutes are available. Bob Raddatz will discuss the PS/W Committee actions. He will present a mock-up of the water meter reading ~ard for your consideration. . We have enclosed with your packet a copy of a letter received from another resident (first one from Larry Erickson).who received ,a much higher meter reading after a new meter was installed. In both cases the readings (upon which their billing was based) were taken from inside meters. These meters are accurate, as compared to outside meters which are subject to climatic conditions and mechanical failures. Although one can certainly have empathy for the homeowner who receives a sizeable bill after a new meter is installed (or an inside meter read), the policy in the past has been to bill in accordance with the most accurate meter reading. If the Council wishes to change this policy, or set guidelines, we shall address these situations differently in the future as they arise. 13. Resolutions #87-53 & 54: The resolutions are for transfer from Don Lamb, to Frank Green, authority to transact City business with the Roseville and Norwest Banks, and to wire transfer funds as needed. Mr. Green will be present at the meeting to take his Oath of Office. As suggested by Mayor Woodburn at the last meeting, an audit will need to be done; this will be started on September 1st. 14. Treasurer's Report: Don will discuss investment, made on 9/17, of just over $321,000.00. . j --.-------
