Dr. Hoyt BmlOunced an". open meeting on the Zoning Ordinance to be held July 2, 1956 at
8:00 P.M. at th~e village hall.
Mr. DeLluli;e arrived at the meetiJJg at this time.
Mr. Ashbach announced that a group of residents belong1JJg to a cHesens committee had
requested that he call for a re-election on the $300,000.000 sewer bond issue. The
group's chairman. Mr. HilDis. gave a review of th!!l sewage situaticn and requested the
re-election. Mr. HilDis _ presented petitions signed by 251 residents statiJJg that ~
people were DB not peoperly informed of the problem prior to the election and also that
Ill8.lV voters who were in favor of the bond 18l1le did not vote at the election.
Mr. McClung, Trustee stated that he felt that the $300.000.00 bond issue had been a
mistake as at our present valuation only $250.000.90 wo:llJlh of \Jonds can be legally
issued. and 18l1ling too IIII.1Ch at the presept time would tend to make us a poor credit
risk. and cost us an unusually high interest rate on the bonds. Mr. McClung 8UQ;ested
a new wlection on $16.000.00 or the amount needed at the present tHle to inlllU'e us of
a future sewer outlet thru Roseville. He also stated that in our contract with
Hoseville we should have a perpetual right granted for a marketable sewage capacity thru
their system. beC8l1se if the 'l'w1n Cities Arsenal ever reverts to private industry we
would have control of that sewer system and m1ght find that we had more capacity than
needed for Arden Hills alone.. With the salahle right thru Roseville, we could recover
our investment. Mr. McClung SUggested that agreements for maintenance and equipment
could b" worked out with Roseville for the second phase of their system With the possibility
of different arrangements beiJJg made. such as the fDrmation of sewer districts. Mr.
Ashbach stated that every effort Will be made to reach a satisfactory contract with
Hoseville. Mr. Ashbach stated that the additional $10,200.00ocost to St. Paul might
also be needed to ~ st. Paul at this time. and pojlsibly should be added to thl'l $16,000.00
to cover that cost.
After Council discussion Hoyt moved and DeLange seconded the motion that we set a new
election fequesting Council anthority to iS8l1e $30,000.00 worth of vq bonds to set up
the first phas" with HoseVille. and to set the !!llection at the earliest possible date.
Upon roll call vote the motion was passed unaaimously.
Hoyt moved and McClung seconded the motion that we set a new election at the village
hall for June 28, 1956 from 1:00 to !:OO P.I~. using th" same election board that sell'Ved
in tha last election. Motion passed.
