CC Meeting Minutes Page Eight July 13J 1988 the City Clerk. City Clerk noted that the plans and specifications, the development agreements, and City Ordinance require that ground cover be supplied on empty lots in Centerville Heights and L'Allier Estates II. Clerk advised that these items should have been implemented in Spring 1988 before the drought conditions occurred. Engineer Stewart did note that due to the dry weather no action could be taken at this time. He also noted that L'Allier Estates II does appear to have adequate wild ground cover. Stewart did assure Clerk that this would be more closely watched with future developments to ensure compliance. PETITIONS AND COMPLAINTS Maureen and Marty Asleson, 7232 Mill Road appeared before the Council to present a complaint on how the property around their home has been handled with regard to development that has taken place. They specifically named damage to their trees. A copy of this letter of complaint is attached to and made a part of these minutes. Engineer Stewart advised that he is aware of the problem with the trees. Stewart noted that the trees are not on Asleson property, but are on the property of Keith Harstad the developer for Centerville Heights. The property in question will become City street right of way when the improvements for the project are accepted. Stewart noted that the trees are close to the street and will most likely be damaged during the winter months due to the necessary pushing of snow on to the City street right of way. Stewart advised that a compromise has appeared to have been reached in that the developer will save as many trees as possible on his property at his expense. Myra Spijer, 7200 Mill Road also presented a letter of complaint regarding construction around her home. City Council acknowledged this letter. A copy of this letter of complaint is attached to and made a part of these minutes. Carol Pelton, 7178 Mill Road expressed concern that the culvert installed along the new road is to low and that the replacement sod put in her yard is not acceptable. Engineer Stewart advised Pelton that the culvert was put in to match the existing ditch and that 2 - 3 inches of silt would be acceptable. He did agree to double check the culvert. Stewart also advised Pelton that he and the Engineering Inspector would meet her at her home to check on the quality of the sod.
