into the lake where I like to go and swim, but I think there should be some kind of run-off area or a pond or something where they could at least try to keep the lake clean. I think, if I'm not mistaken, I believe a water bond is coming up to be paid off. A sewer bond is coming close to (inaudible). MR. POPOVICH: Sanitary sewer first. MR. WALLACE HERRON: I've been on the street for 25 years, I know it's been a temporary street for 25 years. I'm willing to make an investment in sewer and a permanent street. However, I feel that it should be presented as such that it does a good job for everybody. That includes the people around the lake. Like I said, that's a public beach over there (inaudible) for 25 years. If there's any running water or any contaminated water, I would like to see some way made for the water to be cleaned up before it ever gets into the lake. (Inaudible) but on the other hand I'm for the project because I want a permanent street. MAYOR DEMOS: We're certainly going to do our best if this goes through. I want to point out one thing - it's been proven that when water goes over land it often picks up more bacteria in time than it does through a pipe and actually does contaminate the water as well. MR. HERRON: I recognize that. I've seen it flow along Hamline Avenue, down Clarmar, my street is pretty dirty, but after a good heavy rain it's nice and clean. I know where the dirt goes. (Inaudible) I've seen the ditches along Hamline Avenue (inaudible) I'm surprised no one has ever drowned in one of them when they're filled with water.. I know what a lot of water can do for you. I have it in my basement occasionally. (Inaudible) but I am for a permanent street and if it requires a good storm sewer system to get the permanent street in now, I'm ready to go for that. MAYOR DEMOS: Anyone else? Anyone else that wishes to be heard? If not, I will close the hearing. What is the Council's pleasure?- COUNCILMAN FRANKE then introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: Resolution No. 7092 RESOLUTION ORDERING THE CONSTRUCTION OF IMPROVEMENT NO.
