. CHRISTMAS LANE TURNING ~ESTRICTION COMPLAINT
Marcie Parker voiced her disagreement with the no turning regu-
lation on Christmas Lane. She feels the law is not correct and
the road is public and should not be regulated like a private
road.
Haugen explained that due to the concern of the residents for
their children's safety while waiting for the school bus along
a very narrow road, the no right turn from the south would pro-
hibit the use of this road as a short cut to Highway 7. This
traffic problem was discussed recently but any decision was
postponed until the completion of the corridor study.

Highway Department land for the water tower site. Mr.
Crawford will support our request with the St. Paul office.
Gagne questioned the cost of the MnDOT site versus obtaining
a site from Trivesco. No costs have been discussed on either
site at this time, but Crawford felt the MnDOT site would be

a Citizen/Council Review Board. for the Police Department,

could ask for a representative or Councilmember to accompany
them regarding the police issue if they wish. Chief Young

through if a citizen is unsatisfied with the decision or
actions of the police department. Council directed the
