COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS BY CITIZENS PRESENT
Margaret Vanecek, ~72h Sunset Road
Children~r¢ loitering around the stores, can they be tagged? ~fhy can't
the police put them to work, cleaning up the parks and sweeping the streets?
Attorney answered: They can be charged but the loitering law is very weak, a curfew
ordinance for 16 year olds is 10 P.M. can be used but only a judge could
impose a weking penalty and then only if the person had been arrested and
befere the judge for sentencing. It is very difficult to name one person
out'of a group when a window is broken these incidents are not witnessed
by a police officer so no charge is made.
Richard Catton, 6020 Chestnut Road
James Carlson, 60h8 Chestnut Road
Robert Whittaker, 6000 Chestnut Road
Mr Catton spoke for the group and stated that in the summer of 1972 they
were promised that their road would be sealed or black-topped ss it wes
before the sewer was installed; but nothing was done after the council
hsd promised it would be done in 1972.
Engineer answered: The road was watched in 1972 but the weather prevented the work
being done then; it is scheduled for June this year if it drys sufficiently
for the work to be done.
Richard Thomas, 28~8 Highland Blvd.
Had heard about a clean-up project in Mound and wanted the corner of Highland
and Bartlett Blvds cleaned up, the Mpls Star and Tribune use this as a drop
for newspapers and it is never cleaned up.
Manager answered: We will call the Mpls. Star and Tribune and they usually cooperate
with us in getting areas cleaned.
Francis Broich, Piggly Wiggly, 22h0 Commerce Blvd.
Being too late for the agenda he used this section of the agenda to bring
up a new location of the Burger Shoppe lh feet from the sidewalk instead
o£ the or§inal 10 £eet~ wanted permission to proceed.
Acting Mayor Andreasen answered: This should be brought up at a committee session
and invited Mr Broich to attend a Committee session on May 29th at the
Village Office.
Attorney Pearson asked to have a layout of the number of parking spaces and the
legal description of the property to be removed from the lease.
Mr Broich stated he would call the surveyor, Gordon Coffin and see if he could do this
work before the 29th.
