WINDSOR AVENUE FROM HANSEN ROAD TO E. LOT LINES OF LOT 8, BLOCK 6, AND LOT 9,
BLOCK 7, WESTCHESTER KNOLLS ADDITION.
Manager Hyde read the Engineer's Estimates of $3.17 per Assessable Foot for the
Blacktopping; $3.06 for the Curb and Gutter. Messrs. Hyde and Zikan explained
that the Curb and Gutter down the slope is a necessity for the drainage; and the
owners of the two lots to be assessed for curb and gutter protested paying the
full cost, claiming that part of this cost should be assessed azs an integral
part of the blacktopping project inasmuch as the curb and gutter will abut the
only entrance to the street and is consequently of benefit to all owners on the
street. Mr. V. H. Mathieu objected to such an arrangement, claiming that curb
and gutter will soon go in on the balance of the street, and, if such plans are
made, the two corner lots should be assessed for this construction. Some
discussion was had as to a change in the present grade, taking some of the water
to the railroad tracks.
that.this would mean a change in plans.
that inasmuch as the Village Engineer has reported that the curb and gutter is
necessary for good blacktop construction all abutting properties benefit by
the curb and gutter, moved for the scheduling of a new public hearing on
Blacktopping, Curb and Gutter, with the understanding that the extent of the
curb and gutter will not change but that all properties along Windsor Avenue
between Hansen Road and the Railroad Tracks will be assessed therefor, said

objected to the assessment on the grounds that - 1. Curb and Gutter has washed
out, been replaced once, and is washing out again and will not be satisfactory
until a new base is put under it. 2. This is in effect a storm sewer and should
be assessed against the drainage area rather than to abutting properties only.
Council informed audience that it does not have the power, now, to assessL,against
the drainage area; that assessment can be levied against only those properties
included in the notice for the improvement hearing. Chvners then suggested that
they be given relief on a future blacktopping assessment; and the suggestion was
also made that the street be oiled from time to time before sewer construction,
to prevent further wash; that it be blacktopped immediately after sewer con-
struction--but Engineer Zikan stated blacktopping is not advisable until after
the street has settled.

DOG ORDINANCE NO. 33-A was reviewed and discussed at some length; the Council
determining that good enforcement of the year-round leashing ordinance would be
very expensive (Manager Hyde reported that a contract with the Animal Rescue
League for dog pound service and a 40-hour per week patrol with one truck would
mean an appropriation of at least $10,000 and that one truck would not be
sufficient for really good enforcement); that the nominal licenses which would
be charged would defray very little of this expense.
that multiple violations should be penalized and, on common consent it was
written into the Ordinance that the impounding fee be $5.00 for first violation,
and doubled for each subsequent violation; with $1.00 per day board charged for
each day dog is impounded; also that license fee be raised fo $5.00 for dogs
weighing over 30 pounds (American Kennel Club standards) and remain $3.00 for
those under 30 pounds and that leashing be only for the six months between
April 1 and October 1, except that the animals be prohibited from school grounds
and other public places at all times. After these stipulations had been written
into the Ordinance, Bank moved for acceptance of the first reading of ORDINANCE
NO, 33-A.

the limits of the 33-foot public right of way of France Avenue, which claim, in Mr.
Lorens' opinion, is not compensible.

condemnation is the solution. Bank offered the following Resolution and moved its

He told the Council that there is considerable gravel on this tract, which can be
used to fill the other Village-owned property in the area, and recommended purchase
of the four lots, located on the East side of Jackson Avenue between Belmore Lane

proceeds from the park bond issue, was seconded by Tupa and carried.
"ADOLPH MEYER" STORM SEVER REPORT--HEARING POSTPONED.
the plans for this Storm Sewer, which will drain to Nine-l~1il.e Creek, have been
delayed pending the decision of Normandale Development Corporation concerning an
easement for the line--this decision depending on future plans for Nine-Mile Creek,
inasmuch as developer is apprehensive that storm sewer drainage will cause creek
to flood. Mr. Hyde told the Council he would suggest that the Assessment for the
project be on a trunk-lateral basis; with the Northern boundary of the large
assessmant district being assessed for a trunk sewer only, and the Southeasterly '
section, which is more immediately concerned, on a trunk and lateral basis. Mr.
Hyde told the Council that the sewer could be laid over a route to Highway #lo0
and enter Minnehaha Crekk at approximately that point; but, at the last Estimate,
this would mean approximately $60,000 additional cost. Mr. Hyde told the Council
that the Public Hearing wouSd have to be postponed until such time as the route of
the sewer could be definitely determined; and Bank so moved,

$2.61 per foot; thet Mr. Hyde believes some injustice has been done in this case,
because even though the property is platted into four buildable lots it is actually
one tract of land; that Mr. DeKiep has signed an agreement, which will become a part
of the deed restrictions, that this property will remain in use as one tract of land;
that Mr. Hyde recommends correction of the assessment for Sanitary Sewer No. 169 from a levy of 279 feet at $2.61 to the maximum of 150 feet adopted as policy for
assessable front footage on one parcel of platted property.
