City of Centerville <br />February 11, 2004 <br />Council Meeting Minutes <br /> <br />Mr. Peterson indicated that expansion to the east would take out four really nice trees that <br />he would like to save. He then said that he has proposed the street at 28 feet which is <br />narrower than the standard to accommodate those trees but it does require the removal of <br />the two large trees on the west. <br /> <br />VOTE: All in favor. Motion carried unanimously <br />. <br /> <br />Council Member Paar updated Council on the plans for the Frozen Fete des Lacs <br />indicating that the planes cannot take off from the lake due to insurance liability so that <br />portion of the festival has been moved to Benson’s Airport in Hugo. He then asked <br />Council Member Capra to have signs made for placement on the lake to show the way to <br />the sledding at St. Genevieve’s. <br /> <br />Council Member Capra indicated there would be hot chocolate and cookies in the garage <br />and access to the bathrooms downstairs. <br /> <br />Council Member Paar indicated the EDC is asking the Mayor and Council Members to <br />judge snow sculptures on Saturday at 4:00 p.m. <br /> <br />Mayor Sweeney indicated he would be there. <br /> <br />Council Member Lee indicated he would attempt to be there also. <br /> <br />Council Member Paar indicated he would be there. <br /> <br />Council Member Paar asked whether the Mayor was available on February 19, 2004 for a <br />brief interview with Channel 9. <br /> <br />Mayor Sweeney indicated he would be but asked that Staff or the EDC get him any <br />information he may need for the interview such as the history of the Festival and any <br />pertinent information for this year’s Festival. <br /> <br />Council Member Paar indicated that they need a location for the pony rides. <br /> <br />Council agreed that the pony rides should be located at the old public works parking area. <br /> <br />Council Member Lee indicated that Parks and Recreation would like to have a <br />bituminous trail along LaMotte toward Heritage added to the bids. <br /> <br />Ms. Moore-Sykes informed Council that the City received a letter and prospectus from <br />the St. Paul Water Utility with the appraisal for the two lots at 1601 and 1701 LaMotte <br />and the appraised value of each is $270,000. <br /> <br />Council Member Broussard Vickers reported that the Planning Commission is working <br />on amendments to Ordinance #4. <br /> <br />Page 14 of 15 <br /> <br />
