Hite eÀ~lained features of his policies, explaining the company he represents is a 9 million rlollaro.oncerJil and the other, he thought, was under 1 million, but Mr. Herness of the Mutual Sertic€.! Casualty Co. said his concern was rated at 8 million dollars, and they have the insurance on the low-cost hondng projects in St. Paul and a lot of other st. Paul property.

Mr. Rwor1.;ad of the Civil Defense Conununication Dept. appeared before the Council regarding some space to be used for storing radio equipment, erect tower~ and maybe store two jeeps. They could pay tho going rate for storage of jeeps but nothing for the rest of it. It wa.s suggested that he contact the county tool hou1:'~ on Rice St. or the State Fair Board for use of some of their buildings which are unoccupied most of the year. A letter from Thomas A. Schifsky was read regarding the use of his dump in Mounds View township. He stated it has become quite costly to maintain and suggested that we pay at the rate of 25¢ per building, \~lich woulá amount to $573.50 per year. Several members of the Board felt that was too great an amount to pay inasmuch as everyone in the Village does not use the dump. Hanmersten moved, seconded b~T Connor, that Mayor Connor and Carlson contact Mr. Schifsk'«J and offer him $250.00 per year or 25¢ per home for each home located in Roseville using the dump.

The invoice was for $4,500.00 for a survey of water needs in certain portions of the Village, which was not authorized by the Council. Mayor Connor restated his conversation with Mr. McMillan who shted they could make a survey and a report at no cost to the Village and that the cost, if any, would be absorbed in the cost of construction. Carley explaimed his conversation with McMillan after receiving the survey rerort saying the project v,,-ould run approximately two million dollars, and their fee would be 2%. Willmus IQ.oved, seconded by Hammersten, that Karon answer the letter saying the survey was never ordered or authorized by the Village Council Rnd we had no intentions of paying the $4,500.00.
