MOVED by Bies seconded by Flannagan carried to approve the minutes of June 21, 1960,
as submitted to the Council.
Continued Public Hearing - Storm Sewer (60 -SS -4 and 60 -SS -8):
The Mayor announced that this is the announced continuation of the public hearing
on Storm Sewer Projects No. 60 -SS -4 and 60 -SS -8, which public hearing regularly
commenced pursuant to published notice at the meeting of the Council held on June 21,
1960. Pursuant to the Mayor's announcement, all persons present to do so were
afforded the opportunity of expressing their views on said improvement(s).
OBJECTOR OBJECTION
Mrs. Anderson Feels Storm sewer is probably not needed between
3320 Regent Ave. No. 33rd and 34th Avenues on Regent.
Mr. Milo Doty Project need not be done now. Could wait five
3330 Regent Ave. No. years, as taxes in this area are already too high.
Feels cost increase over plan of a few years ago
is too extreme.
Mr. John Healey Desires consideration be given to an extended canal
4900 Triton Drive or ditch. States there is a closed road along his
property line which could be used as a ditch. Feels
cost increase since 1957 proposal is excessive.

In connection with Project 60 -SS -4, it was informally agreed that the public hearing
on this matter should be continued to August 16, at 8;15 o'clock P.M., and that in
the meantime bids for construction of this project should be called for, which bids
could be considered at said public hearing.
Member Teresi then introduced the following resolution and MOVED its adoption:
RESOLUTION APPROVING PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
AND ORDERING ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS
(Storm Sewer - 60 -SS -4 & 6)
The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Member
Flannagan and upon vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof:
Special Meeting of the Village Council, July 6, 1960 Page 2.
Mr. Ted Umhoefer
States that a petition, signed by over 70% of
3114 Orchard Ave. No.
property owners, was submitted in 1957. Slight
expansion of area involved does not account for the
increase in estimated cost. What area is Lowry
Terrace Storm Sewer now serving? Believes that
water runoff from his residence would not drain
toward the proposed storm sewer.
Dillon W. Moffatt
Feels he actually should not be included in area
4824 Triton Drive
at all, that it is not fair to charge assessments
against residents on high ground to provide
drainage for residents on low ground.
Ray Stockman
Asked whether a ponding area has been considered.
2135 Quail Ave. No.
Questions possibility of a double assessment for
storm drainage since his property drains in two
directions.
PROPONENT
REASON
V. A. Nelson
This question was first raised several years ago.
4812 - 33rd Ave. No.
Is deeply opposed to any more delays and feels
that the drainage system as proposed is the best
solution.
Harold Younghans
Feels the Village Engineer is the best qualified
4750 - 33rd Ave. No.
to determine the needs of the area. Questioned
whether an alternate, less expensive plan would
reduce the number of lots to be assessed.
Ralph J. Willard
Cannot afford cost of a complete system now, but
4740 - 33rd Ave. No.
neither does he feel he can afford a charge for a
partial solution now, and another charge for
additional storm sewer in a few years.
In connection with Project 60 -SS -8, it was MOVED by Bies, seconded by Scherer, and
unanimously carried that
this project not be undertaken at this time and that the
matter be disposed of by
minor work of a maintenance nature to be paid for out of
general funds.
In connection with Project 60 -SS -4, it was informally agreed that the public hearing
on this matter should be continued to August 16, at 8;15 o'clock P.M., and that in
the meantime bids for construction of this project should be called for, which bids
could be considered at said public hearing.
Member Teresi then introduced the following resolution and MOVED its adoption:

Relocation of Golden Valley S hopping Center Sign:
MOVED by Bies seconded by Scherer carried to approve the requirements for relocation
submitted by the Building Inspector, and to instruct the Building Inspector to grant
a sign permit according to said requirements.
Re: Building Permit, 6743 Winsdale Street, Mr. Henry Heaner:
The Village Manager presented a letter from the Village Attorney dated June 27, 1960.
Said letter was ordered placed on file in the Clerk's office.
Eugene Bloomgren, 6733 Winsdale Street was present and objected to the permit on
grounds that it depreciates the value of homes in the area, and that since other
residents build on 100' lots, this should be the minimum requirement.
Mr. Hans Garnes, 6801 Knoll Street appeared to protest the construction on grounds
of the court decision of June, 1959. He feels that a precedent was set in the
above referenced case, and that the "Merger of Title Ordinance" should be made
retroactive.
After discussion, Council instructed the Building Inspector to allow construction
under the permit issued for 6743 Winsdale Street.
Request for Public Hearing - Zoning, 7421 Glenwood Avenue, Masonic Lodge:
The Village Manager presented the request for a public hearing to rezone property at
7421 Glenwood Avenue for a Masonic Lodge.
MOVED by Flannagan seconded by Bies carried to hold a public hearing for zoning the
above referenced property, said hearing to be held on July 19, 1960.

Member Bies introduced the following resolution and MOVED its adoption:

(Cloverleaf Terrace 2nd Addition)
The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Member
Scherer and upon vote being taken thereon, the following members voted in favor
thereof: Bies, Flannagan, Nadasdy, Scherer, and Teresi; and the following voted
against the same: None,
whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted, signed by the
