Administrator for background and history of the application.
Administrator Johnson stated that a notice of hearing had been
published in the West St. Paul Sun and that notices had been
sent to the owners of property within 350 feet of the
proposed hospital site. He stated that the purpose of the
hearing is to determine whether to issue a conditional use
permit to construct an animal hospital in a B-2 district, and
if so, to determine what conditions should be imposed.
Acting Mayor Lockwood asked for questions and comments from
the audience.
Dr. Tom Koepke presented the proposed building plans, stating
that the building will be located at the southeast corner of
Dodd Road and Freeway Road and that there will be access from

Ayes: 4
Nays: 0 The hearing was closed at 9:00 o'clock P.M.
Acting Mayor Lockwood directed the City Administrator,
Engineer and Public Works Inspector to study the new
drainage plans when they are completed. The Council members
had some question about the setback requirement on the
northeast corner of the building, whether it should be
considered a sideyard or rear yard setback.
Attorney Winthrop stated that the matter of exchanges of
property between Dr. Koepke and Brian Birch should be
considered. He pointed out that the subdivision ordinance
requires platting for parcels of property less than 232 acres.
He also pointed out that this would be a simple exchange of
property to improve both parcels and that if the conditional
use permit is approved, the resolution could provide a waiver
of the subdivision ordinance requirements upon submission
of the formal legal descriptions which must be filed with the
Register of Deeds office.
Acting Mayor Lockwood moved that the City Attorney be
directed to prepare a resolution to approve the conditional
use permit upon submission of the proper documents for waiver
of the platting requirements and upon satisfactory resolution
of the drainage problems.

MUNICIPAL LIQUOR Attorney Winthrop stated that he has researched the subject of
split liquor and a referendum for on -sale liquor licenses, and
that it is his opinion that the Council could call for a

issue such licenses prior to operating a municipal off -sale
liquor store without losing the right to open a municipal
store. He stated that since legislation on this matter is
Page 436

height, shape, etc. He stated that under this program, all of
the non -conforming signs would have to be changed.
Public Works Inspector explained the program and stated that
if application is made in the near future, the cost sharing
would be 90% federal and 10% city. The Council expressed
concern that citizen input be solicited'prior to making any

MENDOTA HEIGHTS, MINNESOTA
GENTLEMEN:
As you may know, on January 1, 1975, the Minnesota Public Service Commission will
have jurisdiction over the electric rates charged by NSP in your community, includ-
ing municipal street lighting, water pumping, and sewage pumping services.
NSP intends to file a rate case with the Commission for their review shortly after
the new Commission takes authority. This filing will include new higher rates for
municipal strdet lighting, water pumping, and sewage pumping services, and we will
make the proposed rate schedules available to you at the time they are filed with
tha Commission. under the regulatory laws, Northern States Power Company is
authorized to place the proposed rates into effect, under bond, 30 days after filing,
subject to such refunds as may later be determined when rates are finalized.
The contract or application for municipal street lighting, water pumping, or sewage
pumping between NSP and your community now in force has provisions concerning
advance notice of rate changes, and this letter is intended to give notice of the
proposed rate change described above.
These provisions were appropriate prior to statewide rate regulation but do not
fit into the new regulatory system. We therefor are in the process of making
changes in our procedures, contracts, forms, and the like to simplify the adminis-
trative work for our organization and your employees and officials looking toward
PSC jurisdiction over these services. This letter also serves as a cancellation
notice of the existing contract or application for municipal street lighting,
water pumping,.or sewage pumping services at the end of its existing term, for
the purpose of making these changes in procedures.. We will be contacting you
further on this, but if there are any questions, please contact your customer
representative.
Yours very truly,

RESOLUTION NO.
RESOLUTION OPPOSING DIMINISHING AND DISCONTINUATION
OF DAKOTA COUNTY ROAD AND BRIDGE FUND SHARING
WHEREAS, the Dakota County Board of Commissioners have distributed
a "Dakota County Thoroughfare Plan;" and
WHEREAS, the Dakota County Commissioners and staff personnel are to
be commended for holding informal community meetings to further explain
and discuss the thoroughfare plan; and
WHEREAS, the financing of any thoroughfare plan is contingent on many
factors, including fund participation by municipalities; and
WHEREAS, municipal monies for such participation are considered as
capital funds and treated as such; and
WHEREAS, Dakota County has been sharing current Road and Bridge Fund
monies with local municipalities; and
WHEREAS, in fact, such shared monies are included in the annual municipal
operating budgets; and
WHEREAS, the major source of municipal road building monies does not
come from the operating funds, but from special assessments and other bonding
processes;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Mendota
Heights that the Council opposes the diminishing and discontinuation of Road
and Bridge Fund sharing by Dakota County; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the financing of any county roads be
financed via funds other than annual operating monies; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the participation formula for county roads
be revised to reflect the true intent of a County thoroughfare system.
Adopted by the City Council of the City of Mendota Heights this Fifteenth
day of October, 1974.

Six-month Report
Walter Johnson was employed by the City on May 1, 1974 as a
Public Works Maintenance Man. His six-month probationary period
will expire on November 1, 1974.
Bruce Levine submitted a three-month evaluation of Johnson's
performance, which indicated that his work habits, dependability
and attitude were not as good as should be expected. A copy of said
evaluation was given to Walter Johnson in early August, at which time
he was advised to make corrections which could lead to a more favorable
report. Bruce's five-month probationary report on this employee
indicated that there has been no substantial improvement in his work
record, and Bruce, as Johnson's supervisor, recommended that his
employment be terminated.
In accordance with the provisions of Resolution Number 73-93,
I herewith recommend that his employment be terminated; that he not
be given permanent employment status.
