newspaper of the City on July 22, 1983 and copies were mailed to all property owners
within 300 feet.
The Mayor opened the hearing.
JAMES O'BRIIN explained the proposal stating that they have made a change in the size
of the units so that they will sell in the $90,000 to $110,000 range rather than the
$70,000 to $90,000. The units are slightly wider, but they are still Townhouses -
the streets are in the same location with the same private and dedicated streets and
there are still 95 units.
MR. FARRELL stated that the only concern that the Planning Commission had was the
proximity in the cul-de-sa and that the front of the units should not be closer then
twenty feet to the right-of-way.
It was stated that Washington County has requested a right turn lane at a designated
point.
MR. RRIESEL stated that there are two locations on the plat where the firefighters
could not get into the back of the buildings - there is not a good access to get
to the back of these buildings and MR. O'BRIEN was agreeable to leave a space between
the buildings for this purpose.
MR. ZEPPER questioned the risers and the visibility when they are coming out of
their garages and MR. O'BRIEN did not feel that this would be a problem.
MR. KRIESEL stated that the preliminary plats that were received in the past have
been subitted with more details on them including contours and easements and KEN
MEISTER felt that they need more details showing the drainage and utilities,
building setbacks, elevations and the easements. The feasibility study has been
completed for this addition.
JACK RIDER, 159 Maryknoll Drive, stated that his property abuts Lot 9 and he
questioned the distance from the cul-de-sac and MR. O'BRIEN pointed out this detail
on the map.

August 2, 1983
MR. O'BRIEN also displayed and explained the plans of some of the units that will
be placed in this development and the fact that they would not exceed 35 feet in
hiehgth from the lowest point in the back.
BRUCE , 205 Maryknoll Drive, asked about the large trees and MR. O'Brien
stated that they will be used as buffer areas and that many of the evergreens
will be transplanted.
CALVIN SPRAIN, 109 Maryknoll, asked about the existing pond and the swamp and the
response was that they will be left as is.
KEN MEISTER at this time explained the feasibility study that has been done for this
development - they are proposing to do this in four phases - there will be an eight
inch sewer line and that they will tie in with the Oakgreen Lift Station - there
will be a twelve inch water line at Eagle Ridge in connection with an existing six
inch line and the reason for this would be the location of a well on a portion of
this development. There will be storm sewer drainage on Bayberry down the County 12
ditch and then into a small ponding area.
Questions were asked about development to the south of Interlachen and the extension
of Interlachen to the east and Mr. Meister indicated that it could not go beyond
Crestwood Terrace because of the typography of the area - there is nothing currently
planned for the development south of Interlachen.
COUNCILMAN MAC DONALD asked if a piece of property could be dedicated at this time
for a possible well site and MR. MAGNUSON stated that this could be a part of the
Developer's Agreement.
It was the general feeling that until the developer has the completed plat with
all of the contours, easements, etc. on it that the preliminary approval should be
delayed until such a plat can be prepared and presented to the Council.
On motion of Councilman Kimble, seconded by Councilwoman Avise, the Council
continued the hearing on the preliminary plat for Interlachen Hills until
August 16th. (all in favor)
5. This was the day and time for the public hearing for the proposed taxi rate increases
for the St. Croix Cab Co.
There was a news release in the Stillwater Gazette on this matter.
MR. DICK RITZER appeared before the Council on his request and that that he was
asking for 50¢ across the board increase and $15.00 per hour for waiting for someone.
He also asked that the second item or fare of $2.15 (local Stillwater - one person,
any six blocks in town), be deleted from the rate schedule.
He was questioned about his fare increase in May and explained that he was charging
below the approved rates of January 1, 1980 and he at that time brought his fares up
to the approved schedule.
There was no one in attendance that spoke for or against this request.
The Mayor closed the public hearing.
On motion of Councilwoman Avise, seconded by Councilman MacDonald, the Council
approved the proposed rate increases for taxi fares as presented deleting the second
item on the previous schedule and changing the waiting time to $15.00 per hour.

INDIVIDUALS & DELEGATICNS
RON SCHOENBORN, 514 South Hemlock Street, presented the petition for the surfacing
of South Hemlock Street without the surfaced swale from the end of the street sur-
facing to the lake. (A petition was signed by Mr. & Mrs. Leonard McGuire, Mr. &
Mrs. Almon Bebermeyer and Mr. & Mrs. Ronald Schoenborn). In the petition they
indicaged the proposed cost sharing of this improvement, and a time payment period of
five years.
They further requested that it be done in conjunction with the improvement of
South Grove Street.
There was considerable discussion regarding this improvement and especially the
matter of having a swale or not to have a swale and the erosion in the area. This
will be a twenty-four foot street and it will tie-in with the existing driveways.
The petitioners would not want to see a delta buold up at the end of this area.
COUNCILMAN KIMBLE moved that the City Engineer be directed to provide the Council
with the best advisable way to proceed with this improvement with drawings and a
recommended plan working with the Public Works Department for a decision at a later
meeting.
(After further discussion in which Mr. Shelton indicated that there should be
some type of swale to protect the manhole at the end of this street - also there
was mention of the condition of Lake Street on the east side of the lake which takes
the drainage from Greeley Street down to the lake, Councilman Kimble withdrew his
motion).
August 2, 1983
On motion of Councilwoman Avise, seconded by Councilman Kimble, the
Council moved to go with the request of the neighbors for the improvement of
Hemlock Street along with Grove Street with the swale being worked out in
accordance with the drawings presented and a permanent barricade in front of the
rip -rap on the east side. (all in favor)
There was discussion about the setting of the interest rate and the time period
for these imrovements on Hemlock Street.
On motion of Councilwoman Avise, seconded by Councilwoman Bodlovick, a
resolution was introduced "WAIVING THE HEARING, ORDERING THE IMPROVEMENTS FOR
SOUTH GROVE AND HEMLOCK STREETS AND SETTING THE TIME PERIOD FOR THE ASSESSMENTS
FOR THESE IMPROVEMENTS". (Local Improvement No.212)

227 South Main Street
Stillwater
Bid Price $500.00
MR. LLOYD POTTER from the Eagles appeared before the Council on these bids and
indicated that they are planning to use them on the Washington County Fairgrounds
where they have put in a track for the tractor -pull, which property has now become
property of the Washington County Fairgrounds and the lights would also become their
property. (Washington County Fairgrounds property).
There were questions about going to someone local for a dollar and it was felt
that the difference in this particular casc should not create a problem.
On motion of Councilman Kimble, seconded by Councilwoman Bodlovick, the
Council awarded the bid for the sale of the lighting system from the Lily Lake
Ballfields to the Stillwater Eagles for the purposes they described because of the
beneficial nature to which these lights will be put to use. (all in favor)

transported by the purchaser).

There was discussion about the fact that the Linson Plat has not been signed
and recorded and the placement of the duplexes on these lots and Mr. Zepper was
asked to check this matter out.
MR. MAGNUSON stated that the Joint Powers Agreement provides that the sole juris-
diction for the planning and land use control shall be in the Joint Powers - lawyers
who have been representing developers, most of them have required signatures of
the Joint Powers, of the Township and the City. He did not feel that the City
should have to sign at all.
It was indicated that the Joint Powers had approved this plat but no one seems
to have information as to whether or not the plat has been signed by the proper
officials.
COUNCILMAN KIMBLE moved the bid award to be given upon proof of signing by the Joint
Power of the Linson Plat.
MR. MAGNUSON stated that there should be a Developer's Agreement too because the City
has no financial guarantee that the City has required from every developer that we
have done business with - we don't know how long the bond immunity, when they are
going to be paid off - under what terms and conditions - we do not have any promises
out of this developer that we had out of the others .n the terms of the erosion controls
and these various other things. The security that the City gets that the assessments (-
are paid and the agreement that they be paid off as the lots are sold - that sort of
financial security is the most important - he was sure that the Joint Powers has taken
care of all of the other items.
COUNCILMAN KIMBLE amended the motion to state that the City would award the bid
upon the completion and signing of the Developer's Agreement.
(Councilman Kimble withdrew his motion after some discussion to the
fact that the bid award did not have to made this evening)
On motion of Councilman Kimble, seconded by Councilwoman Avise, the Council
directed that Mr. Kriesel and Mr. Magnuson proceed with the Developer Agreements
for these three developments for the guarantees that the Council needs and authorized
the Mayor and the Clerk to sign same. (all in favor)
On motion of Councilman Kimble, seconded by Councilwoman Bodlovick,. the Council
moved to hold over the bid until the next regular meeting for the awarding of the
contract for these improvements. (all in favor)
INDIVIDUALS 6 DELEGATIONS (continued)

CONSULTING ENGINEER'S REPORT
1. MR. MEISTER discussed with the Council the Rainfall Data and Work Day Analysis
for the Oak Glen Improvement Project - the contract date has been extended to
September 23, 1993 which will give him 54 extra days. He recommended that the
City Council go along with this time extension which will become Change Order
No. 14 for this project.
There was discussion on the qualify of the work and the witholds on the pay-
ments up to this point and MR. MAGNUSON felt that it is possible that we will go
into court on part of these extra costs on the project.
On motion of Councilwoman Avise, seconded by Councilman Kimble, the Council
granted him the rain days and directed Mr. Meister to prepare Change Order No. 14
on this project but not to give him the request for the release of some of the

dredging of Lily Lake since the estimate was $17,000. (all in favor)
2. MR. KRIESEL explained the rate increase for the City's hospital health insurance
with Blue Cross/Blue Shield - it is a 47€ increase - dependent coverage has gone
from $113.89 to $167.46 - single coverage from $46.00 to $66.56. The City can sign
a statement that we will coordinate our health/medical insurance with the no-fault
automobile insurance which would be a savings of $1.33 on the single coverage and
$3.44 on the family coverage. There is also the AWARE program in which they have
worked out an agreement with twenty hospitals like a HMO conecpt - these hospitals
would agree to do gall bladder operations and other types of operations for a fair
and reasonable charge - it only has to do with prephnned surgery and he will be
meeting with their representatives and union representatives on this matter tomorrow.
He also will be having a meeting with representatives of the League and two HMO
companies. More than 40% of the increase was on experience and the other 6% was
based on inflationery costs.
There were comments about joining with the County's open end policy and other
plans that would be cheaper - and the possibility of getting a package insurance
for all of the city's coverage on a bid basis.
3. MR. KRIESEL reported that he had someone come out from an operation that makes
radios for the Public Works and Parks vehicles and gave a demonstration on their
radios and there was no area in town where you could not get a crystal clear
reception and he has obtained the specificiations for radios 12 or 13 radios to
be replaced and the cost would be about $10,000 which was not budgeted for - he
felt in order to solve the problems that we are going to have to go to new radios.
He is presently dealing with Rich Meyers from Central Communications.
There was discussion about the amount of use of such equipment and it was
indicated if they worked that they could be very cost saving in time and money.
He was directed to come back with some cost figures and present it at a
future date.
4. MR. RRIESEL stated that Dallager Estates would like to subdivide Lot 3 of Dallager
Estates (that is the lot that presently has two houses on it) - the Council gave
final plat approval but the plat has not been signed because of some problems with
financing with the former owner - on May 3, 1983 the Council granted an extension
of time for Dallager to get the plat recorded for 120 days which will expire on
August 31, 1983 - if they are unable to get the subdivision could they have some
additional time to record the plat.
The Council agreed that they would approve the subdivision after the plat
is recorded, as recommended by the City Attorney.
