04-28-97 CCAugust 28, 1995 Norm Freske, Mayor City of Otsego 8899 Nashua Avenue Otsego, MN 55330 Dear Norm: Thanks for agreeing to meet with me and for focusing on the important goal of insuring a reliable source of water for Otsego Elementary School. 1 believe that we went a long way toward meeting this important mutual goal at last Wednesday's meeting. To keep communications clear, I will attempt here to set down the agree -menu and understanding that I heard at the meeting. Attending for the city were you and City Engineers, Larry Koshak and Kevin Kielb while the School District was represented by me, Ron Bratlie, the Director of Support Services, our Architect, Ron Erickson, and Roger Renner, a well expert hired by the School District. The individuals attending agreed that: • it is reasonable to assume that the source of the sand in the pipes and our systems came from the well. • at some time in the future, the well will need to be redeveloped. • the City of Otsego will monitor the sand content of the water and the well depth on a monthly basis. This monitoring will help determine when the well should be redeveloped. • the City of Otsego will provide a back-up motor and pump or an agreement for their rental or some other arrangement that will insure quick reaction to future pump or motor failure. • the School District will adjust the pressure of the tanks so that they will hold 440 gallons. • the School District also will install a Snubber valve ahead of the pressure switch (as I understand it, this will deaden the impulse coming to the tanks) I have also asked Ron Bratlie to work with Roger Renner on the installation of an automatic dialer for emergencies. I think that this about sums up the meeting, at least as I saw it. Again, thank you for making what has been a very complicated and difficult situation more understandable and, therefore, more manageable. Sincerely, David Flannery Superintendent of Schools OTSEGO MUNICIPAL WELL SAND IN WATER SUPPLY TO OTSEGO SCHOOL CHRONOLOGY OF EVENTS 4/14/94 City proposes building a municipal well on Otsego site. 6/94-9/94 Coordination between city engineers and all parties regarding pump controllers/ site piping/pressure switches/tanks/electrical/etc. 9/27/94 HAA confirms schedule - completed system by October 31, 1994. 10/7/94 Traut wells recommends further development of well (attached letter explains what will happen if the well is not properly developed — this is what happened). 10/12/94 District notified that city well is to be redeveloped and completion delayed until mid November 1994. 11/3/94 "Well coordination" meeting at school - all parties - pressure reduction valve and pump pressures, etc. 2/95 Geo -thermal system filled - check valves begin sticking open. 4/14/95 Environmental Protection Lab results to Traut.

FLANNERY.___ Elk River, MN 55330 Superintendent of Schools (612) 241-3400 Fax (612) 241-3407 April 29, 1997 Mr. Larry Fournier, Mayor City of Otsego 8899 Nashua Avenue Otsego, MN 55330 Dear Mayor Fournier and Council Members: Thank you for the opportunity to discuss the Otsego well problems with the council last Monday. Since this situation is complex, it is a difficult issue for all of us. Based on the information presented, it is evident that two issues exist. The first issue is that sand was introduced into the geothermal, domestic, and fire protection systems and caused damage and expense. The second issue is that a large volume demand may cause deficient water pressure and, therefore, leave the building, or parts, unprotected. The Otsego Elementary School was impacted with problems of sand from the initial startup of the new municipal well. This initial startup included the following problems: The soft start was not in use at the time which caused a hard "across the line" start up of the system. This is probably when the bulk of the sand was introduced into the systems. 2. The pump initially delivered more than 360 gpm. An orifice was later installed in the drop pipe to limit the flow from the pump to 360 gpm. 3. The pressure settings on the pressure switch were set at a narrow range. A wider range was set at the same time that the soft start was installed to allow the pump to ramp up. This eliminated the short cycling. In order for the School District to open school with a reliable, sand free water supply, the Fire Marshal directed the School District to install a sand filtering system. It should also be noted that there were problems meeting the water flow requirements of the State Fire Marshal. The "fault" seems to be with the "fit" of the system, the size of the pump, the well conditions down under, the holding tanks, and the volume of water demands of the School District. The School District has spent over $60,000 for consultant fees, testing, cleanup, water filtration equipment, and other related expenses for the city water supply. These expenditures were absolutely necessary. The water supply is still carrying sand to the system, presently at a much lower rate. We believe that the real problem in this whole mess was communication. The School District asked the City Engineers to help solve this problem in the beginning. It became the burden of the School District to prove to the City Engineers that the well was the source of the sand. It took almost two months before there was any willingness to even admit that the well could be a part of the problem. A lot of time, energy, and expense could have been avoided with more cooperation. This was a joint venture with the School District contributing $35,000 to the City of Otsego to provide a larger well and allow the city to expand its clientele at a later date. Since we were both inexperienced with wells, and since the well arrangement was for ERonald parties, we are asking the City to share in the additional expenses. Director of Support Services c: School Board Members City of Otsego Council Members DEPARTMENT: PREPARED BY: MEETING DATE 4. OPEN FORUM Elaine Beatty, City Clerk April 28,1997 - 6:30PM ITEM NUMBER: ITEM DESCRIPTION: 4.1. Special presentation by Cynthia Sandborn of Salina Salon in Elk River (Funds for Flood Relief) BACKGROUND: I received a call from Julie Hall of Salina Salon in Elk River. She said they were having a free haircut day on Sunday April 27th, 1997 and the proceeds would go to the flood victims locally. She asked how she could accomplish this, as she knew that the Parrish area had flood victims. I told her she could come to a Council meeting and present the check to the Mayor to be used for flood relief for our flood victims. Cynthia Sandborn will be at our Council Meering to present a check to Mayor Fournier to be used for Otsego flood victims. I feel this is a wonderful gesture. CITY OF OTSEGO REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION AGENDA SECTION DEPARTMENT MEETING DATE CONSENT AGENDA April 28, 1997 ITEM NUMBER: ITEM DESCRIPTION: PREPARED BY: 5.1 Building Supervisors Judy Hudson, Deputy Clerk Currently the City has four building supervisors. These supervisors are employed by the City on an as -call basis to supervise the facility during rentals. Their hours are sporadic and vary greatly as there are some months when the facility is not rented. Also most of the rentals are on weekends - evenings. Currently three supervisors are receiving $5.50 per hour and one is receiving $6.00 per hour. These supervisors are excellent - dependable, efficient, and knowledgeable of the building. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Approve pay increases for the following Building Supervisors: Linda Davis, Rich Davis and Dave Cecka to $7.00 per hour and approve pay increase for Lu Luconic to $8.00 per hour. Lu is currently considered the head building supervisor as she does the scheduling of the supervisors for each event. These pay increases are effective immediately. Authorize the Deputy Clerk, Judy Hudson, to prepare a proposal outlining Facility Use rent increases at the May 12, 1997 City Council Meeting.

CITY PLANNER ELAINE BEATTY, City Clerk April 28,1997 - 6:30PM ITEM NUMBER: ITEM DESCRIPTION: PREPARED BY: EB,CC 6.1. PAUL LEVENSON - Discussion of his split of 4+ acres previously turned down as being premature BACKGROUND: Paul Levenson came in for a comprehensive plan amendment and a rezoning to allow for an administrative split of his land on 6129 NE Highway 101. He had joined forces with his neighbors Jerry and Lynn Grote as they also wished to split their land. After the Hearing at the Planning Commission and the Council decision to turn the request down as being premature, Paul still feels he should be able to split his land as he just wants to build a house. He asked to be able to come before the Council to request a reconsideration of the vote. RECOMMENDATION: The Staff recommendation is that this is still premature and can be looked at as part of the Comprehensive Plan update. This is a Council decision.

Levenson & Grote Judy Hudson DC BACKGROUND The City Clerk requested this to be placed on the City Council Agenda under Special Presentation. The City Council denied their request for rezoning at the July 8, 1996 City Council Meeting. Mr. Levenson and the Grote's wrote a letter dated July 15, 1996 (attached) to the Planning Commission expressing their disappointment in the denial. Andrew MacArthur responded to them via letter dated July 26, 1996 (attached). Mr. Levenson and the Grote's sent a letter to the City Council dated August 26, 1996 (attached) asking the City Council to reconsider their original request for re -zoning and sub- division and to meet on site with City Officials in order to view and discuss the request and clarify questions. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Elaine Beatty will be in attendance at the City Council Meeting for any further discussion or recommendations. TO: CITY OF OTSEGO, CITY COUNCIL 08/26/96 PLEASE ACCEPT THIS LETTER AS A REQUEST TO RECONSIDER THE DECISION MADE ON OUR REZONING APPLICATION. WE BELIEVE THAT DECISIONS MADE AT THE PLANNING LEVEL WERE BASED PRDAARILY ON FUTURE DEVELOPMENT THAT WE ARE NOT REQUESTING IN OUR APPLICATION. OUR INTENT IN THIS REQUEST IS TO UTILIZE THIS AREA AS LARGE LOT RESIDENTIAL, NOT SMALLER "CITY SIZED " LOTS. BY DIVIDING THE EXISTING 2 LOTS, WE ARE ONLY INCREASING THE TOTAL TO 4, WITH EXISTING HOMES ON 2 OF THEM. WE ARE LOOKING TO DIVIDE EXISTING PARCELS INTO LOTS WITH A MINIMUM LOT SIZE ( PER THE ZONING REGULATION) OF 1 AC., WITH THE ACTUAL LOT SIZES TO BE MORE IN THE RANGE OF 1.8 TO 2.4 AC. (APPROX.) . THESE RESULTING LOTS WOULD CERTAINLY BE LARGE ENOUGH TO SUPPORT PRIVATE SEPTIC SYSTEMS. A NEW RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT VERY NEAR TO THE SOUTH WEST, IN FRANKFORT TWP. IS OF THE SAME NATURE AS WE ARE REQUESTING. THE SURROUNDING AREA IN OTSEGO IS OF A RESIDENTIAL NATURE NOW. THERE ARE LOTS RANGING AS SMALL AS 1 AC. IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA. WE ARE NOT WISHING TO DIVIDE TO A LOT SIZE THAT WOULD REQUIRE SERVICING BY A PUBLIC SEWER SYSTEM. THE EXTENSION OF QUAM AVE. AND THE ACTUAL USE OF THE SURROUNDING AREA WOULD SEEM TO MAKE THIS DIVISION A SDvTLE DECISION. WE DON'T FEEL THAT WE WOULD BE A BURDEN TO EXISTING OR FUTURE CITY SERVICES. IN CLOSING, WE WOULD ASK THAT THE CITY COUNCIL DO WHAT IS NECESSARY IN ORDER TO RECONSIDER OUR ORIGINAL REQUEST FOR RE -ZONING AND SUB -DIVISION. WE WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO MEET ON SITE WITH THE NECESSARY CITY OFFICIALS IN ORDER TO VIEW AND DISCUSS THE REQUEST AND CLARIFY QUESTIONS ANYONE MAY HAVE.

OUR REQUEST WAS TO ALLOW RE -ZONING OF OUR PROPERTIES IN ORDER TO FACILITATE THE CONSTRUCTION OF NEW HOMES IN THE AREA. WE WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS OUR EXTREME DISAPPOINTMENT IN THE RESPONSE WE RECEIVED TO THIS REQUEST. THIS LAND IS CURRENTLY ZONED AGRICULTURAL UNDER OTSEGO'S CURRENT ZONING. ANY REVIEW OF THIS PROPERTY WOULD SHOW THAT THIS IS FAR FROM THE ACTUAL USE OF THIS AREA. THERE ARE HOMES ON LOTS SIZED FROM 1 AC. TO 5.5 AC. THE CONSENSUS OF MOST PEOPLE IS THAT IT SHOULD BE LARGE LOT RESIDENTIAL. THE ADDITION OF THE NEW QUA,L1 AVENUE EXTENSION THAT IS CURRENTLY BEING BUILT BY MN/DOT, AVAILS THIS AREA TO RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION. THE AREA CERTAINLY HOLDS NO AGRICULTURAL VALUE AS IS. WE HAVE REQUESTED TO BE ZONED R-3, SO WE COULD CONTINUE TO UTILIZE THIS LAND IN A MANNER THAT WE BELIEVE IT IS BEST SUITED FOR. MANY PEOPLE THAT WE HAVE TALKED TO SEEM TO THINK THAT A REQUEST OF THIS NATURE WOULD BE A "NO BRAINER" OR ARE SURPRISED TO FIND OUT THAT IT ISN'T ALREADY ZONED IN A MANNER THAT WOULD ALLOW LOW DENSITY RESIDENTIAL. IT IS OUR DESIRE TO DEVELOP THE NEWLY CREATED LOTS AS LARGE RESIDENTIAL. WE HAVE NO DESIRE TO HAVE WHAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED "CITY SIZED LOTS". WE ENJOY THE FREEDOM AND ROOM THAT LARGE RESIDENTIAL LOTS AFFORD US. DURING DISCUSSION AT THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING, MOST OF THE TALK REVOLVED AROUND CITY SEWER. THE LOT SIZES THAT WE INTEND ON HAVING WOULD CERTAINLY SUPPORT PRIVATE SEPTIC SYSTEMS. WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT ALTHOUGH OUR REQUEST MAKES SENSE, IT IS PREMATURE DUE TO THE LACK OF CITY SEWER AVAILABILITY. IF WE WERE MAKING A REQUEST FOR SMALLER CITY SIZED LOTS, THIS WOULD BE UNDERSTANDABLE. WE ARE NOT MAKING A REQUEST FOR LOT SIZES THAT CANNOT SUPPORT PRIVATE SEWER SYSTEMS. WE FEEL THAT THE PLANING COMMISSIONS RECOIVIIA42IDATION AGAINST THIS REQUEST IS OUT OF LINE, AS WE WOULD NOT REQUIRE CITY SEWER, NOR COULD THE CITY PROVIDE IT IF IT WAS REQUESTED. WE CAN SEE NO REASON WHY, BY THE ADDITION OF TWO BUILDING LOTS, THAT THE URBAN SERVICE AREA NEEDS TO BE EXTENDED, MUCH LESS A SANITARY SEWER SERVICE DISTRICT CREATED, SINCE THERE IS ACTUALLY NO MORE THAN A FEASIBILITY STUDY OF A SEWER SYSTEM IN EXISTENCE. IF ANYTHING IS PREMATURE, IT WOULD BE A DECISION BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION BASED ON A SEWER SYSTEM THAT IS NOT IN EXISTENCE, AND IS ONLY AN IDEA AT THIS POINT IN TIIAIE. FROM A COMMON SENSE STANDPOINT, WE CANNOT SEE ANY GOOD REASON WHY THE PLANNING COMMISSION SHOULD HAVE RECOMMENDED AGAINST THIS REQUEST. ON THE POSITIVE SIDE OF OUR REQUEST, DEVELOPING THIS LAND AS NEW LARGE LOT RESIDENTIAL IS A BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY. THE ASCETICS OF THE LAND WOULD BE IMPROVED, WHICH IS IMPORTANT TO THE RESIDENTS THAT WILL HAVE TO TRAVEL PAST IT ON A DAILY BASIS. THE ABILITY TO HAVE HOMES ON LOTS THAT ARE OVER 1 AC. IN SIZE (THESE LOTS BEING CLOSER TO 2 AC. IN SIZE) LENDS SOME VALUE TO THE CONCEPT OF HAVING A SOMEWHAT "RURAL SETTING" IN THE COMMUNITY AND WOULD BLEND NICELY WITH THE RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT IN FRANKFORT TWP. THAT IS MERELY A STONES THROW AWAY. ONE MORE ALWAYS IMPORTANT ISSUE IS THE ADDITIONAL VALUE OF THE DEVELOPED PROPERTIES TO THE TAX ROLLS OF THE COMMUNITY. IN LOOKING AT THE PROPERTY, IN DISCUSSIONS WITH NEIGHBORS, IN TALKS WITH BUILDERS AND REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS IN THE AREA, WE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO COME UP WITH ONE NEGATIVE ASPECT TO THIS REQUEST. IN CLOSING, WE WOULD LIKE TO ENCOURAGE THE PLANNING COMMISSION TO DO ANY HHG, AND EVERYTHING WITHIN THEIR POWER TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM AS IT STANDS, AND TO RECOMMEND TO THE CITY COUNCIL THAT THE REQUEST FOR RE- ZONING BE APPROVED AS IT WAS ORIGINALLY REQUESTED. IF THERE ARE ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS, WE WILL BE AVAILABLE TO DISCUSS THEM OR MEET ON SITE IF THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL IN ORDER TO VIEW THE PROPERTY AND PUT THIS REQUEST IN THE PROPER PERSPECTTVE. WE ANXIOUSLY AWAIT YOUR RESPONSE. SINCERELY, PAUL LEVENSON /_lj L_'_ JEROME & LYNN GROTE DOCUMENT HAS BEEN OOHED &DISTRIBU:7PC MAYOR COUNCIL . . EDAAC CLERK ✓ PKS & REC _.._ PLANNER BLDG INSP _.

As you may be aware, the relocation of a building or structure within the City requires the processing of a conditional use permit. Specific question exists whether the current conditional use permit is desired to apply to newly constructed homes assembled off site (i.e., replacement manufactured homes). Considering that the City of Otsego is characterized by "mobile home" subdivisions, replacement manufactured homes are commonly processed by the Building Inspector (approximately five per year). As a matter of standard practice, such manufactured home replacements have not been processed by a conditional use permit but rather simple building permit issuance. Technically speaking, this practice does not meet the strict letter of the Ordinance. According to the City Building Inspector, the past practice of exempting replacement manufactured homes from building relocation CUP requirements has been based on the following rationale: 1. The replacement homes are "new' and meet all applicable Building Code requirements. 2. New, on-site construction does not require the processing of a conditional use permit. In terms of actual final home product, little difference exists between off-site and on-site construction. 5775 WAYZATA BOULEVARD, SUITE 555 ST. LOUIS PARK, MINNESOTA 554 1 6 PHONE 6 1 2-595-9636 FAX 6 1 2-595-9837 3. The costs associated with the processing of a conditional use permit may discourage property owners from replacing dilapidated manufactured homes. While the aforementioned rationale is well taken, there is also a basis to require new homes constructed off-site to follow the CUP process. Such basis includes the following: 1. The conditional use permit process allows the City to give due consideration to neighborhood compatibility and potential adverse impact upon surrounding properties. 2. Assurances that the relocated structure will be completed in a timely fashion. 3. The notification of area property owners and required public hearing offers an opportunity for public input. It is the opinion of the City Building Inspector that new homes (manufactured) which meet all provisions of the Building Code should be exempted from CUP processing. Should the City determine the new homes/structures constructed off-site should be exempt from conditional use permit processing requirements, it is recommended that such projects be processed via administrative permit. Such administrative permit requirement, while removing the public hearing process, could provide assurances relating to project completion, notification of moving date, etc. This issue is scheduled for discussion at the forthcoming 28 April City Council meeting.

After discussion, the Council requested Bob Kirmis and Larry Koshak to comment on this easement road (62ND ST NE). Attached is a memorandum from Bob Kirmis/David Licht dated April 17, 1997 and Larry Koshak dated April 23, 1997.

As you are aware, certain residents living along such street have petitioned the City of Otsego to take over the existing private road as a City Street. The history of such private street creation is summarized in a City Attorney letter dated 8 January 1997. The segment of 62nd Street under consideration measures approximately 1,280 feet in length and one rod or 16.5 feet in width (see attached Exhibit A), From a planning perspective, an ideal situation would be the formal dedication of a 60 foot wide right-of-way (with a cul-de-sac at the eastern terminus of the roadway) and an improvement of the street to City standards. The right-of-way dedication and street improvement are, however, considered independent issues. Right -of -Way Dedication. We agree with the suggestion of the City Attorney that the burden of right-of-way acquisition should be placed upon the petitioners. In this particular case, a 60 foot wide right-of-way dedicated along the quarter -quarter section line would be preferred. As illustrated on Exhibit B, residents north of 62nd Street could potentially dedicate 13.5 feet of right-of-way width (in addition to existing 16.5 feet of private road width). This dedication could be combined with an additional 30 feet of right-of-way which would need to be acquired from the adjacent property owner to the south. To be recognized in this matter is that right-of-way width (i.e., 60 feet) does not equate to required roadway surface widths (i.e., 32 feet for newly constructed streets). 5775 WAYZATA BOULEVARD, SUITE 555 ST. LOUIS PARK, MINNESOTA 554 1 6 PHONE 6 1 2-595-9636 FAX 6 1 2-595-9837 Street Improvement. Assuming existing 62nd Street does not meet current City standards, the issue of roadway improvement is considered worthy of discussion. As a matter of practice for new developments, the City accepts right-of-way dedication under condition that roadways are constructed to City standards. The 62nd Street situation is, however, considered unique and variation from the practice may be warranted. Should the City choose to waive its street improvement requirements, some sort of time table should be established for its eventual upgrade. The street improvement issue should be subject to further comment by the City Engineer. Processing. Should the petitioners acquire the land necessary to dedicate a 60 foot wide right-of-way, the following City approvals would be necessary. Minor subdivision (administrative). 2. Variance to allow creation of a cul-de-sac in excess of 500 feet in length. This item is scheduled for discussion at the forthcoming 28 April City Council meeting.

April 23, 1997 Ms. Elaine Beatty, Clerk City of Otsego 8899 Nashua Avenue NE Otsego, MN 55330 RE: 62nd Street Petition Dear Elaine: 3601 Thurston Avenue Anoka, Minnesota 55303 612/427-5860 Fax 612/427-3#ft- 0520 At your request we are providing our opinion on the petition for acceptance of the above mentioned private street. Among the issues we need to consider is street easement width, cul-de-sac size and location, drainage, improvement of the traveled surface and utility location. Street Easement The preferred street easement width would be 60 feet width with 60 foot radius cul-de-sac easement. Depending on the drainage, utility location and snow storage requirement it is possible to reduce the easement width. The minimum width we could recommend is 50 feet. The easement should be acquired with no restriction or limitation. Normally, the easement is for street and utility purposes only. Cul-de-sac The street will need a full cul-de-sac and a variance as stated in NAC's letter of April 17, 1997. We assume that school buses, garbage trucks and other service vehicles use the street. With the long distance from County Road 37 the cul-de-sac is warranted. The cul-de-sac should be as recommended in the City's standards. Drainage Issue The drainage off the road needs to be directed to a position outflow and then to a public easement to a wetland. We are aware of a farm tile crossing the street at some point. The the drains land south and southwest of the road. The tile will not be accepted by the City as a public facility but will remain as a private drainage structure maintained and operated by the owners of the tile. It may be necessary to improve the drainage before accepting the street. If ditches are required this improvement usually requires the maximum easement of 60 feet. Engineers Landscape Architects Surveyors Ms. Elaine Beatty Page 2 April 23, 1997 Driving Surface The present driving surface is a an unimproved gravel road. The width of driveable surface is 16- 18 feet. It would be our recommendation that the street be improved to current street standards with a paved street and cul-de-sac. The minimum acceptable surface would be a 24 foot gravel at a depth of at least 6 inches with ditches to convey the storm water runoff. Utility Location We don't have any positive location of the existing utilities such as electric, telephone cable and gas, however, telephone and power appear to be in the back lot lines. Typically the utility companies are allowed to place their line in the street easements. The location is required to be on the outside areas of the easement and not under the driving surface. If the utilities are not required to be placed in the street easement it is possible to reduce the requirement for easement. We recommend to be in compliance with standards that the necessary 60 feet easement be provided and that the street be paved to City standards within 5 years of accepting the street. It would also be advisable to acquire some street easement on the south side of the proposed street since this land should at some time be assessed for street. Please review this matter and if you have question, please contact me. I will be available at the council meeting to discuss this issue further. Yours truly, HAKANSON ANDERSON ASSOCIATES, INC.

We need to supplement your report cost with a cost for transporting wastewater to the Elk River treatment site. We will do that independently in a report to the City of Otsego. At the present time the cities of Otsego and Dayton are considering a treatment plant proposal that would start at a capacity of 0.1 MGD for each City. It would be a discussion point to be presented the Otsego Council as to what capacity they wanted to commit to at this time. i_and application sites for Otsego's share of the sludge would be a cost that would need tc be estimated for total cost determination. Tax Sharing would also be an issue that does.n't have a cost associated with it. Your logic in determining the capital and O & M cost of the facilities over time is appreciated. We thank you for sending this report to us and will meet with you to discuss the report in more detail. If you wish, please call me to set a date. Yours truly, HAKANSON ANDERSON ASSOCIATES, INC.

The septic system has been located and will be abandoned by City Maintenance. City Maintenance has cleaned up the site. Great job! Now we move on to the maintenance of this property. CM Berning has discussed this with me and he through discussion with Collin Ruch has an option: Collin Ruch (resident at 11805 80th Street) has been mowing the front part of this property for several years. He is currently storing some wood on it. 2. The back part of the property was previously farmed by Walter Berning and Sons. Mr. Ruch would like to put a garden in this area. This garden sounds like it will include a pumpkin patch and if there is a crop there might be some pumpkins which the Parks and Rec. Commission can have to use at their Halloween Party. (no guarantees) CM Berning will have this added to the April 28, 1997 City Council Agenda. I discussed this with the City Attorney, Andy MacArthur. Andy sees no problem with this but should the Council approve this he recommends a letter sent to Mr. Ruch. The letter should include language allowing Mr. Ruch permission to use this property for a garden and storing wood and in consideration of this he will maintain the property. Mr. Ruch should also be made aware that if the City ever needs this property for public use the City could do so immediately. Recommendation is to allow Collin Ruch the use of this property as described above and in return he will maintain the property. A letter is sent either by the City Attorney or staff to Mr. Ruch.
