North Part of Lot 21, Radisson Inn Addition

ATTORNEY'S REPORT:
Attorney Larson informed the Council that on the morning of April 28th, the
blacktopping with the rolled bittnninous curb was being installed at Wild Duck
3rd Addition and stated that Mr. Dutcher had been notified of the Council's
action requiring concrete curb and gutter in Wild Duck 3rd Addition pursuant
to Section VIII B7, 2nd paragraph of Sulxlivision Ordinance No. 79.
.
After a motion to table discussion on the matter for two weeks failed, a
lengthy discussion followed between the developer, Lowe and Dutcher, and the
Council. The City Engineer explained that the developers had agreed to install
a two-layer bittnninous roadway rather than the one layer required in the
ordinance. The developers maintained that municipal water was not provided
by the City in December as stated in the contract so installation of concrete
curb and gutter was not applicable to them.
Due to the discussion that transpired and the attorney's opinion, Haugen made
a motion to reconsider the vote of the last meeting of April 27 relative to
the Council action on "Wild Duck 3rd Addition" on the recornnendations made by
the staff. Leonardo seconded. On vote, there were 4 ayes; Shaw abstained.
Shaw then moved, seconded by Haugen, that items 1 (City to pay for oversizing)
and 2 (contractor to extend pipe to west property line) of the recornnendation
be approved. Motion carried unanimously.
Based on an interpretation of the ordinance that the development is not served
by a municipal water system, Leonardo moved to accept the staff recommendation
No. 3 that developer be allowed to install rolled asphalt curb. On roll call
vote, motion carried on a 3 to 2 vote. Leonardo, Baird, Haugen -aye; Shaw and
Rascop - nay.
