Bid Awards for Well Construction
The City Engineer's tabulation of bids received June 1, 1955 for proposed
Wells 8, 9, 'and 10, and his recommendation for award of same, was read.
Mayor Fernstrom said that he has had some conversation with citizens who
suggested that we hook up with Minneapolis. He stated that City Engineer, Phil W.
Smith said we would have to discontinue the use of our wells. It was then suggested
that we tie in with Minneapolis to take care of our peak loads and Mayor Fernstrom
said he was told by Minneapolis that this could not be done. Also, if we did connect
to Minneapolis, the water rate would be higheil as we would have to pay Minneapolis
more than we are charging St. Louis Park customers now.
Councilman Hurd asked if there was any survey made of existing private wells
that could be tapped for City service. Engineer Smith said that the Ruedlinger
well was checked with the Driller, and Mr. Kays was told that the well would not
serve. He said he would check further on this well and one other in the gravel pit.
Councilman Hurd said he would like to see two contracts awarded now, and if possible
use the private wells if available. Councilman Bolmgren said he feels that the
City needs the three wells. Thomas Renner said that the gravel pit well originally
was a 700 gallon well, but it now needs a good cleaning. He said he heard of a good
well in the Minnesota Sant & Gravel Pit that could be used with possibly 2,000
gallons.
-Councilman Jorvig said we need the water supply so bad that we should order
the three wells before us, and continue to check private wells for extra supply
later. Councilman Hurd feels we should do as Councilman Jorvig suggests but he feels
we always wait for an emergency and we should set up an agressive exploration to
check all private wells available. Councilman Uorvig approved this also. Mayor
Fernstrom asked Councilman Bolmgren if the Water Department could catalog all the
wells mentioned so that it can be determined the value of same and before they are
closed up.

Truck_TraVel on France North of Excelsior to Acme Stone Co.
Mr. Phillips, representing Minikanda Oaks residents appeared and wanted to
know the answer of the City Council with regard to prohibiting trucks from operating
on France Avenue North of Excelsior Boulevard to the Acme Stone Company; also as to
the removal 'of the advertising sign of Acme Stone Company north of France Avenue.
City Engineer, Phil W. Smith presented a plat showing a suggested road west
from France Avenue South of the Chicago, Milwaukee, Saint Paul and Pacific Railroad.
to tie in with 35th Street at Raleigh Avenue. He also presented estimates of cost
for grading such a road without cost of land acquisition. Mr. Phillips said the
Milwaukee Railroad Company told him that they would have to make a way out.
Mayor Fernstrom read a report from the City Assessor as to how the cost could
be divided and assessed. Mr. Phillips asked why this road could not be paid for
out of the General Fund similar to the plan for Excelsior Boulevard West of Highway
No. 100. Mayor Fernstrom explained how these jobs differed and how we handle such
road. Mr. Bursell called attention to the fact that the property is zoned for light
industry and calls attention to ordinance regarding health, etc.. He said that
they (Minikanda Oaks) were there first and should have been told about the Carlson
permits before they were granted. He spoke about the sign put up by Acme Stone
Company. He feels that Acme Stone Company is getting the use of road suggested so
they should pay for same rather than the Citizens of Minikanda Oaks. He said that
Carlson's are operating in violation of the ordinance, etc.
Mayor Fernstrom explained the permits issued and that they were legal, as
reported by City Attorney, E. T. Montgomery. He also explained that a permit was
taken out for the sign, first in Minneapolis, and when told that they were wrong,
they applied to St. Louis Park for same. Mayor Fernstrom further stated that the
Council did not act hastily, and they feel that all permits issued were issued
according to the ordinance.
Mr. Bursell said that the Lumber Company is operating in violation of
Ordinance as to the trucks serving them. He feels that the value of homes men-
tioned in ordinance have:-been lowered due to the operation of the Lumber Yard.

He said the sign in question needs a permit and before granting same, the
Council should consider the value of homes and peace of citizens in Minikanda
Oaks. He asked what would happen if the Lumber Company came in and asked for
a permit and the Council told them they couldn't have one until they find a way
out. Mayor Fernstrom said he did not know. City Attorney, E. T. Montgomery
said that all permits have been given legally - the ordinance does not call for
hearings. Mr. Bursell said that they were told that they would be heard. Mayor
Fernstrom said that the Council and the people are seeking a solution, and re-
hashing what has passed will not do this.
Councilman Davis said he would like an answer from the City Attorney to
the following questions. (1) Can we post France Avenue for trucks? (2) Now
that permits to operate have been granted, what can we do to help the situation
as far as the requests of the people are concerned: Said he would like a written
answer from the City Attorney. He asked when the City Attorney could give the
answer. Mr. Bursell said he doesn't feel that Attorney Montgomery would give a
good answer. Mr. Montgomery said he has no reason for not giving a proper answer.
Councilman Davis said he feels that Mr. Montgomery will give -an unbiased answer
and feels that the Council should have an answer to his questions first. Mr.
Phillips asked for a date that answers could be given to the group. No answer.
Said if we have to pay for the road to serve Acme Stone Company, can we ask them
to split their profit with us? No answer.
Councilman Jorvig said he thought we were working in the right direction
in securing the City Attorney's answer to Councilman Davis's questions. Said the
Railroad is apt to work with us, etc. Within a week we should be able to get the
information.
Mr. Bursell thanked the Council for their indulgence, but as trucks are still
traveling on France Avenue, asked if we could set a date when the answers can be
had. Mayor Fernstrom said let's make it within two weeks so that Attorney
Montgomery can answer and the Railroad can be contacted. Mr. Phillips is to be
notified when answers are available.
