~OUNTRY CLUB cum AND GUTTER AND ORNAMENTAL STREET 'LIGHTING HEARING DATE SET.
Mayor Bredesen pointed out that many complaints are coming from the Country Club
area regarding the condition of curb and gutter and street lighting in the area.
Trustee Courtney questioned the possibility of Northern States Power cooperating
in the installation of street lights and advised by Mr. Hite that they would not
be in a position to support this improvement for over five years and suggested that
we proceed without Northern States Power's assistance. Discussion ensued as to the
method of paying for the curb and gutter replacement. Nayor Bredesen suggested that
a portion of the cost might be paid from General Funds inasmuch as the maintenance
of an adequate curb and gutter system assists in the'preservation of streets and aids
in the orderly removal of storm water, both of which are of general Village benefit.
Trustee Courtney pointed out that if a portion of the replacement is paid from
General Funds in this area, the policy must be clear-cut so as to set up plans-for
cost af all replacements which would not vary from one area to another.
