paid to the State Highway Department by deducting one-half thereof from the
City's annual allotment of funds from the Nunicipal State-Aid Street Funds in
the calendar years of 1974 and 1975 and crediting such amounts to the Trunk
Highway Fund. Mr. Erickson pointed-out that the proposed agreement would be
acceptable to the City if it were amended so as to provide for an expanded

made. Mr. Erickson said that Mr. Hyde had suggested, and he had concurred,.
that the Council adopt a resolution proposing the appointment of the State High-
bay Department as its agent for the purpose of cont'racting for the relocation of
.the utilities and proposing that the repayment of the costs thereof be made by
deducting equal sums from the City's annual allotment from the Municipal State-
Aid Street Fund over a period of years which would be acceptable to the City.

Minnesota in connection with T.H. 100 also be paid from the City's share of
State-Aid Funds.
