Mr. Kriesel distributed to the Council copies of the 1979 Audit and the Audit Management Report and asked that the Council especially study the Management Report and at some future date he will sit down with the Council and answer any questions that they might have on this report. 5. There was discussion on the buy /back on the loader and this matter was referred to the Administrative Committee and Mr. Kriesel will check into the maintenance and repair for this piece of equipment - Mayor Junker did not feel that we need a new loader, and they will find out what Caterpillar wants for the 920. 6. Mr. Kriesel reported to the Council that Laurie Clayton,the Union representative for Municipal Local No. 91,has contracted him and he requested that the Council authorize him to meet with her to find out what she has to offer and then set up a meeting with the Council and the Council was agreeable to this. 7. There was discussion on the appraisal report for the right -of -way and condemna- tion or damage report for the Ogren Report in connection with Local Improvement Nos. 171 and 173. There is a possibility that the City will have to acquire additional money for the payment of these properties that are in the various parcels in connection with this improvement. There was discussion about the property that was donated some of the other developers for ponding and street right -of -ways. COUNCILMAN POWELL asked about approaching Mr. Ogren and telling him that the appraiser was not aware of the stamoent that there would be no damages on the north side and there should not be any damages on the south since the City improved that - it was his desire to have the road where it is - there are three sets of plans showing where the roadway was to be placed. a r w • • • MR. MAGNUSON stated that the City would not argue that point - that the improvement will offset the damages. There is nothing in writing on this and Mr. Ogren will argue this agreement was never made - he would be willing to go ahead with the condemnation if the Council wants him to do that. He did state that he would not take any damages to the north and that figure is $22,000. The Council felt that the City should offer him $100,000, but Mr. Magnuson did not feel that he would accept that. There was discussion about drawing another appraisal and that would involve additional costs. The work was in process when this agreement was discussed and as to whether or not he would be able to secure a variance on the property on the north is not known. If it goes to condemnation, the City would submit their appraisal and Mr. Ogren would submit his appraisal and the chances would be that his would come in higher and more than likely it would be split between the two. On motion of Councilman Harry Peterson, seconded by Councilman Powell, the Council directed that the City Attorney contact Mr. Ogren and inform him that after discussion at this meeting regarding this prior agreement and not allow the damages to the splinter site and round it off to $100,000 and that the Council wants a reply by the August 5th meeting and that the check would be issued immediately for that amount if he will accept it. (all in favor) MO 8. Mr. Kriesel informed the Council that he is still receiving complaints on the John Person property and he has also inspected it and that something has to I be done. On motion of Councilman Harry Peterson, seconded by Councilman Powell, the City Attorney was directed to have a certified letter hand delivered to Mr. Person requesting that he clean up his property by July 28th, or the City will clean same up. (all in favor) (This letter is to be written on July 22nd and to be hand delivered by the Police Department.) • R• rs July 21, 1980 RESOLUTIONS The following resolutions were read and on roll call were unanimously adopted: 1.
