<br />City Council Meeting Minutes of December 27, 1995 <br /> <br />Wilharber and Buckbee both reported that the Fire Steering Committee will be a future <br />agenda item to change the number of people needed to approve items. <br /> <br />r <br /> <br />WEED ORDINANCE <br /> <br />Weeds have not been a problem in the past except for some vacant lots. Councilmember <br />Brenner expressed concern for the residential area, allowing them to grow their grass 12 <br />inches. Wilharber stated that it does state in the ordinance: "or which have gone or about <br />to go to seed. <br /> <br />MOTION by Buckbee, second by Helmbrecht to approve the amendment to Ordinance <br />54, an ordinance regulating weeds and growing grasses and providing penalties. Motion <br />carried unanimously. <br /> <br />SCHOOL'S PETITION FOR WATER <br /> <br />The question was given to Dave Nyberg, MSA Engineer, about the cost of a study. <br />Nyberg replied that they would look at 2-3 different alternatives: Main Street, Creek, <br />Cul-de-sac from L'Allier Estates. Wilharber believes Main Street would be a better <br />alternative. <br /> <br />Nyberg stated that the need for the school is important. If the school needs water for fire <br />protection the water service would need to be looped. If they would just like water supply <br />as soon as possible and in the future use it for a sprinkler system then the city would not <br />have to loop it through downtown yet. <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />The question was raised, what is the county going to do with Main Street and Centerville <br />Road? - what are their long range goals? <br /> <br />Nyberg stated he would talk with the school to establish their needs and focus the study <br />on that. <br /> <br />MOTION by Wilharber, second by Powers-Rasmussen to request that MSA look into the <br />different options for running water to the school, to contact the school and county to <br />discuss future plans and to return to city council with a cost estimate. Motion carried <br />unanimously. <br /> <br />MET COUNCIL WATER PLAN <br /> <br />W1lharber stated he spoke with Dave Nyberg regarding the cost of each proposed plan in <br />MSA's letter dated December 11, 1995. The MnDNR Emergency and Conservation water <br />supply plan would be about $5,000.00, the comprehensive water supply plan is <br />questionable and would be on hold until the water tower issue is settled. The Wellhead <br />protection plan is on hold at the present. There is also a sentence in the letter stating the <br />Comprehensive Water Supply Plan, a Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer Plan will also need <br /> <br />CC12-27M.WPS <br /> <br />2 <br />
