by property owners and 54/ by front ioouage; Cro�an ltoad - 63% by
property owners and 69io vy front footage. He said that on the
petition the cost was ga.ven as $8.50 per assessable loot. Council-
man Liebl asked it there had been any peticion for Ventura Hvenue,
The City Engineer said that this had been adc7ed to the Public HearinJ
because the City felt that the area was being im�roved and they
wanted to bring this to the attention o- the people on Ventura
Avenue as it would be cheaper at this time. Mayor Kirkham suggested
that the new petitions that had been brouynt in ta the City 'ae

R�;GULAR COUNCIL MliETING OP AUGTJS7' 5, 1965 PAGE 3
Mayor F.irkham read the percentayes on the new petitions as: �
Horiz�n Drive - 50% by owner and 482yo by footage; Crown Road -
5Qq6 by owner and 53/o uy FooL-age. He explained that a£ter a mis-
understanding was brouc�ht to light at the iast Councxl Meeting,
the t�etitions had been recirculated with a�irm price, and a
ma�or�ty oi the propercy owners apparently want the improvement.
A visiL-ar �o che Council M�eting asked ii there would be a difference
in cosc iE Crown koad was �oined with Horizon Drive, or ii ic was
clone separately, The City isngineer said there may be some contusion
on the Council's policy os assessing Z way up the block, which wi11
noi be �he way it is assessed in this case, because a11 the houses
on Crown P.oad and Ventura face on the street. He sa�d that the only
persuns assessed twice wi11 be the corner 1ots, which wi11 pay on
their lrontaye for Horizon Drive and 1/3 on their side yard when
Crown koad is im�roveci. The Finance Director explained the City's
policy in assessin� screet improvements. Mr. James l�osse, 129
Crovrn Road, said that the getitions were suppo:;ed to be 50% and
he asked hoca the Council could consider ado�ting this with only 48/
on Horizon Drive. IIe said that out of 15 houses on Crown Road, 8
property owners had signed and 7 had not, and he knew o� one pro- �
perty owner who could not come to the Meeting, but had understoad
he could get the curb and gutter without the street. 1lnother
gentleman at the Council Meeting said he was sure the man Mr. Kosse
had menL-ioned was in iavor ol the pro�ect, and this was a mis-
understanc�ing_ I�Ir. ��osse said that Counczlman Lieb1 had come to his
house ragarding the petiL-ion. Councilman Liebl said that he had not
petltioned ior this streez, the propeYty owners had. He said he
Ee1t that when the firsL pecition was circulated in this block,
Lhe people were in Lavor oi the petition, and it had not been
initiated by him or by the Council. Councilntan Liebl said that
che petition originally had 60/ until sarneone had misrepresented
the cost and said ic would be $12.00. Councilman Lieb1 said that
L-he Council ma�ority could approve the pro�ect without a petition,
and as iong as the City wi11 be irnproving 53rd Avenue, he ielt
they would be beneiittinc� by getting their street improved.
Mayor Kir3cham explained thaL there is no 1aw that says anything
a]�out needing 50%. Iie saic! Lhat the Council has adopted a policy,
more ar less, to protect ihemselves, so that when property owners
petition £or a pro�ecL-, ii there a.s 50;;, the Council knows the �eople
want at, but under the law i-c could be ordered in without the peti- ,
tion_ He said the Council cloes not take Lhe initiative in puttany
in thes� szreets.

Councilman Harris asked the City Engine�r ii this was acted on right
away, if it coulci be put in this year. The CiLy Lngi neer said that
if it is going to be ordered in, it should be done as soon as pos-
sible, as there are some plans to be finished peiore Lt can be

Councilman Samuelson asked iP it could 1eya11y be added onto tne
contract. The City Engineer said that 40i can be added, ancl the
contract the City has is in the neighborhood oi $300,000. Council-
� man Samuelson asked if l-hi:; included ca�ch basins. The Ci�y
Engineer said that the $8.17 would include a couple of additional
catch basins, and the $9.37 price would :nc.an hooking onto the sewer.

blem, they can get by wiLh the lesser cosL-. Councilman Harris

7�e trying under the existinc� ordinance, but it would be their
recommendaLion that the IIniform Building Code would be much easier
to work with_ He saic3 they would -ask the Council to look at the
permit fee schedule to see if they want �o adopt that schedule
or have a dirferent schedule. P+layor KirY.ham suggested that the
Cicy NIanager review the schedule and make a recommendation of the

DISCUSSION Ft�GF1RDING �LLCTRICITY RATES, NSPn
Mr. Sahn Pearce, representing the Northern States Power Company,
addressed the Council regarding an increase in electric service
races. He said that �his rate increase is being applied through-
ouc the entire NSP systern, and the residentlal customer increase
would be 554 a month maximum, except for minimum bill usag�. He
sazcl that the rate increase is spread throuyh i.he residential,
commercial, and industrial customers, and each are iigured a little
d�iferently.
�
Mr. Pearce said that this increase is necessary because the last
L�me thaL- NSP raised the rates was in 1952, and even with the
Novernber, 1968 increase, the rates will ae lower than they were in
1961. He said that the co�t oi money interest rates have increased
and L-he last bond issue solc7 at 6 3/4go; labor costs have increased,
additions have been made to the plants £or air and water pollution
control, and more rnoney has heen spent beautifying the system, i.e.
from space iranes to steel posts which have doubled the cost. Mr.
Pearce said tl�at the new surtax has raisec] their corporation tax to

Councilman Liebl asked about municipalit�es where NSP had taken
over their cooperatives, and the Councils hacl to be asked perrnzssion
to raise their rates. D7r. Yearce said rhat a.^, rar as he lcnew, NS1�
had submitLep it only to SL-, paul's Comm�ssion, and what action Sc.
Paul was goLng to ta].e, he did not 7tnooa_ IIe saic! that NSP wi?_1 not
accept a re�ection without going to court. Councilr�an Samuelson
asked what NSP would do it the o�her scaL-es caith Commissions did
not a11ow the rate increase. Mr. Pearce saica chaL- this was a
question that would have to be answered �_n L-he �=utare. He saiu chai

Mr. Pearce said that NSP had lobbied ior a reyulatory bi11 in 1959,

the NaL-ion as a whole, engineering-wise, D7SP has a very clean,
reliable system. Mr. Harris asked what L-hey can loolc 1or in getting
service on new construction. I�lr. Pearce sazd thaL- �hey were wor];ing
on that every day, and if t'riey have any que�tioris he w�auld be
happy to talk iL over with them and try co wor}c chem ou�. The
City Engineer asked ii some oi tkie overh�ad lines will go unc7er-
ground. Mr, Pearce said �hat NSP wi11 be spending a great deal oi
money in the next 10 years primarily d�recL-�d to undergrounci �aci-
lities, and in �ridley, the new £eeders out of the subscacion will

CONSIDLRATION OF GASOLIAI..�'. PUMPS FOR COUNTRY VILLAGE SUPER MARKET
ON NORTHEAST QUADRANT OF CENTRAL AVENUE AND MISSISSIPPI STREET:
The City Engineer said that several weeks ago the Council had
granted a permit £or a Country Village Super Markey, and now they
were requesting a permrt for gasoline pumps. He said that tYe
Administration had a question on whether this would be allowed or �
not, and whether it met all requirements. The City Attorney said
that this zonang area is C-1, which would permit retail sale of
gasoline when aecessory to a gasoline station, but not when an
accessory to a grocery store. The representative for the Country
Village said that at the first Council Meeting, they were not ready
with the Fire Marshall approval, but this would be just like a
Holiday Station, not a dairy or grocery store. He said that the
Health Inspector has approved of this locally. He said it would
be similar to the Western 5tation an East River Road, which has
food a1so. He said there will be a hostess inside, and no employee
would handle food and gasoline at the same time. The City Attorney
said that if this is a gasoline service station, they would be
entitled to sell gas, but i£ it is a grocery store, and they pro-
pose gasoline pumps in front, this would be a secondary use. He
asked how it was described on the original permit. The City Bngineer
said the permit was issued on a Country Village Super Market. 'Phe
City Attorney asked if there was suPficient room ior a retail gro-
cery store and qasoline pumps. The City Engineer said that if rt
is a drive-in supermarlcet, it does not, but if it is a gas station,
it does. The representative said that this is a Western station
store, and all foods handled are packaged. He said that the gaso-
line pumps showed on the original plans. Councilman Harris said '
he Eelt the discussion had been on a supermarket, and he had over-
looked the pumps, if they were on the plan.
