Jim March noted the past council didn't want to use the land as a park because it was <br /> isolated and nobody would use it. Jim stated he will try to get something in writing from <br /> the County regarding changing the restricted deed to an unrestricted deed. <br /> Motion by Council Member Sweeney to find ont the cost and information needed to <br /> changr the deed to unrestricted. Seconded by Dick Travis All in favor Motion <br /> carried. <br /> GOALS AND OBJECTIVES <br /> Jim March started the general discussion with examples of previous years goals and <br /> objectives. He mentioned last year we tried to separate the goals from the objectives. <br /> Lino Lakes wanted the City to sign a Joint Powers Agreement on 21st Avenue which <br /> consisted of street cleaning / maintenance. Centerville chose not to sign at that time. <br /> Gerald Rehbein paid for the 200 ft. of blacktop for access to the business. He felt it would <br /> be helpful to have the new council review that agreement. Jim stressed it would be very <br /> important to consider the garbage contract, the police contract, a new public works <br /> facility, and water interconnection. <br /> Council Member Sweeney questioned if there will be enough water for fires and water <br /> sprinklers. <br /> Paul Palzer stated we are currently at 141,000 gallons per day (gpd) compared to <br /> 88,000 gpd in the past. We are already using substantially more this year. The <br /> 141,000 gpd is comparative to what we normally use during peak season in the summer. <br /> The highest peak last year was 408,000 gpd. He mentioned the Well Head Protection <br /> Plan will require us to take action. Paul felt it would be a good idea in the future to have <br /> two (2) towers - one for use when cleaning. He would like to see the City move ahead <br /> this spring. If we had a big storm go through, we could be dry and it takes 1 1/2 hours to <br /> refill the tower. <br /> The Council came up with the following list of goals for 1999: <br /> Police Contract <br /> Garbage Contract <br /> Public Works Facility <br /> Water Tower <br /> Commercial District <br /> Industrial District <br /> 21st Avenue <br /> Council Member Sweeney questioned the youth center on Council Member Brenner's list <br /> of goals. <br /> Council Member Brenner explained the youth center was very important and desired by <br /> residents and came about through the Minnesota Design Team visit. <br /> 4 <br />
