<br /> , <br /> ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - NOVEMBER 30, 1998 DRAfT 19 <br /> \ <br /> . MOTION: Councilmember Malone moved and Councilmember Aplikowski seconded a <br /> motion to direct Staff to develop other alternatives which visually enhance West <br /> Round Lake Road while remaining within the budget, The motion carried <br /> unanimously (4-0). <br /> ADMINISTRATOR COMMENTS <br /> Mr, Pritsinger stated the Truth in Taxation hearing was scheduled for December 7,1998 and he <br /> had planned to schedule a regular meeting upon completion of the hearing, Considering the <br /> discussion of a stop sign installation on Briarknoll Drive and the fact that this issue will most <br /> likely be discussed at the December 21, 1998 meeting, he would suggest holding a special <br /> meeting on December 21,1998 rather than a Worksession. <br /> Councilmember Larson indicated that Staff may be jumping the gun by scheduling a special <br /> meeting to discuss the stop sign issue. If the Safety Commission determines the stop sign was <br /> warranted a special Council meeting should not be necessary, If the Truth in Taxation hearing <br /> was completed on December 7th, this would make the December 21st meeting unnecessary, Mr, <br /> Pritsinger pointed out December 21 st was already planned for a W orksession in addition to the <br /> potential budget adoption hearing, <br /> Mayor Probst confIrmed that the December 7th meeting was strictly the Truth in Taxation <br /> e hearing, the December 14th meeting would be a regular Council meeting, and the December 21 st <br /> meeting would be a Worksession and a special meeting based on the he need to have a budget <br /> adoption hearing. Mr. Pritsinger indicated this was correct and noted the Worksession could be <br /> canceled on the 21 st. <br /> Mayor Probst asked what the agenda for the Worksession would include, Mr. Pritsinger <br /> indicated it would be the last opportunity of the year to discuss the Town Hall meeting. There <br /> would also be discussion regarding rubbish hauling and the licensing which could be added to <br /> the December 14, 1998 regular Council meeting rather than the W orksession. Mayor Probst <br /> indicated this could be decided at the December 14th meeting if time allows. <br /> Mr, Pritsinger stated that there had been a complaint by a citizen regarding smoke from wood <br /> burning stoves. He indicated the Building Official reviewed the situation to see if there was <br /> anything that can be done. The Building Official indicated there was not a lot that can be done. <br /> The current chinmey stack on the house using the fIreplace was on the peak and nothing will be <br /> gained by adding to the stack. The Building OffIcial indicated the air intake on the affected <br /> home was already approximately 150 feet away from the other home. <br /> COUNCIL COMMENTS <br /> Councilmember Larson asked Staff for a status of the negotiations for the lease of the Arsenal <br /> . property. Mr. Pritsinger indicated there have not been a lot of specifIc discussions regarding the <br /> lease. The parties involved are waiting to hear from General LeBlanc regarding the land transfer <br /> issue. Mayor Probst indicated he had attempted to contact the General and has yet been <br /> unsuccessful. He stated he received a message from the General today indicating the General <br /> will be in his office tomorrow and he will try to contact him then. <br />
