COUNCIL MEMORANEUM NO. 78-53
TO:

SUBJECT:
The Honorable Mayor and City Council
The City Manager
Tax Forfeit Land
Council Memorandum 78-27 discussed Lots 20-23, Block 26, Wychwood, and the
request of the owner of Lot 11 to purchase Lot 23.
The Council asked if Lots 20, 21 & 22 constitute a building site if Lot 23
and part of Lots 113 and 12 were divorced from Lots 20, 21'& 22, after the
City took 30 feet for Brighton Boulevard. In checking the record, the
owner of Lot 19 owns part of Lot 20; an area 45.1 feet by 14 feet.
The calculations of square footage after taking out the 30 feet for street
and the piece that goes with Lot 19, we found:
Lot 20 has
Lot 21 has
Lot 22 has
3,051 square feet
3,487.4 square feet
3,712.4 square feet
Total
10,250.8 square feet
The owner of Lot 19 has asked to buy 14 feet along the west edge of Lot 20.
This would amount to 14 X 63.65 or 891.1 square feet which would reduce the
remainder of Lots 20, 21 and 22 to 9,359.7 square feet. However, enough of
Lots 12 & 13 that go with Lots 20-23 could be retained with Lots 20, 21 & 22.
If the southerly 15 or 20 feet of Lots 12 and part of 13 were added to 20,
21 & 22, then they would constitute a building site even if 14 feet were
purchased for Lots 18 & 19.
20 feet off 13 & 12 would be approximately
15 feet off 13 & 12 would be approximately
1,300 sq. ft.
990 sq. ft.
The problem before the Council is: "Should Lot 23 be sold separately from

INFORMATION MEMORANDUM NO. 78-12

SUBJECT:
The Honorable Mayor and City Council
The City Manager
PDA Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance
On February 14th, the Council will consider the PDA Ordinance and the Sub-
division Ordinance.
The Subdivision Ordinance will indicate that 10% of the land or money in
lieu thereof must be granted for park land.
We have no trouble if 10% of the land is given. If a subdivision is 10
acres, they must give one acre. The problem comes when they give money in
lieu of the 10%. What is the 10% cash to be based on~ assessed market value
or some other figure.
In the Case of P.D.A.'s, the Park Commission had recommended an amount per
unit; possibly the same approach could be used for subdivisions. However,
if a unit price is subscribed, I wonder if it should be set in the ordinance
since the unit price should be subject to change with inflation or deflation.
If the Council does adopt the unit price approach, the Council might wish
the ordinance to say that the price can be established from time to time by
Council resolution.

asks rate
equalizing
Associated Press
St. Cloud, Minn.
Continental Telephone of Minneso-
ta is seeking a rate change that
could mean a drop of 43 percent in
the monthly phone bills of its rural
-customers, if the state Public Ser-
vice Commission approves. .
Contineotal's ~'city customers, on
i the other hand, codld see their
i rates go up, by a smaller amount.
;President Charles Rexroat said the
',company is asking the PSC to drop
,rural customer rates and raise the
',rates of city customers. He said the
,company wiil file ~ts request with
',the PSC by Wednesday.
,The change would allow Continen-
tal to continue receiving loans
from the Rural Electrification Ad-
ministration, which requires rural
and city customers receiving the
same service to pay the same
rates.
The Wahk0n area, which includes
many retired people living on
· fixed incomes, 'will have its rates
reduced from $16.50 to. $9.50 a
month.
If the change is approved by the
PSC, it will affect one-party resi-
dential rates in this manner:
Clear Lake, now $9.70 urban and
$15.15 rural, will go to $11.85 a
month for urban and rural; Clear.
water, now $9.45 urban and $I4.75
· rural, will pay $11.20. for both;
Elrosa, now $8.15 urban and
$13.35 rural, will pay $8.50; Isie,
now $8.95 urban and $14.40 rural,
Will pay $10.35; Milsca, now $8.25
urban and $13.83 rural will pay
$10.30; Onamia Pease, now $10.15
urban and $15.35 rural will pay
$9.20; Wahkon, now $11.30 urban
and $16.50 rural, will pay $9.50.
Onamia, with multiparty lines in'
rural areas, would see the one-
arty urban rate go from $8.45 to
9.90 and rural rate from $10. I0 to
$8.40. In Belgrade, one-party ur-
ban will go from $6.80 to $7.85
and rural multiparty from $6 to
$5.75.
