The town attorney was directed to request Cedar Grove Construction Company to submit map showing the construction and road lay-outs and number of houses constructed in Cedar Grove Additions #1 and 2 for Township reference. Mr. Harry R. Chambers appeared with plans and specifications for the retail lumber warehouse and office to be situated on Lots 1 and 2, Plainview. It appearing to the Board that same had been finally approved by the Advisory Planning Committee, upon motion duly made by Supervisor Trapp and seconded by Chairman Rahn, it was RESOLVED that a special use permit, therefore, be, and hereby is, granted to Mr. Harry R.

There was no representative present from Cedar Grove Utilities Company. Upon motion duly made and seconded, it was RESOLVED that action on both the proposals of Northern States Power Company and Cedar Grove Utilities Company, heretofore presented, be tabled until said companies mutually agree as to a program and plan installation and operations of such street lighting facilities. A group of resident from Valley View Plateau appeared with a com- plaint as to the condition of roads and streets in the platted area. It appears that on May l5~, 1956 the plat was submitted by Mr. Ira Nelson and by resolution by the Board of Supervisors was accepted subject to comple- tion of the roads and streets therein to the satisfaction of the Town Board. No further resolution appears in the Minutes indicating the roads or streets were ever approved. The group of residents was therefore ad- vised that the Town Board had not assumed the roads and streets and, therefore, the burden was upon the owner to remedy their condition. However, in view of this situation, the Board took no further action as to the application of Mr. Nelson for a water works franchise. Upon motion duly made by Chairman Rahn and seconded by Supervisor Trapp, it was RESOLVED that the town attorney write to Mr. Ira Nelson about the condition of the roads and streets in Valley View Plateau and request that the necessary improvements be made forthwith. The application by Mr. Robert W. Johnson for a nursing home in Block 6 of Cedar Grove #2 was tabled since no one in behalf thereof appeared. The petition of Earl C. Motz et al was presented and referred to the Advisory Planning Committee. - 2 - 136 A request of Cedar Grove Construction Company was presented to discontinue the monthly reports of sewer connections. A motion was made by Chairman Rahn to discontinue such reports but received no second and, therefore, was defeated. Mr. William Reynolds, 2036 Opal Place, representing the West Eagan Civic Association, appeared with a request for stoplights at the inter- section of Cedar Avenue South and Highway #13. Upon motion duly made by Chairman Rahn and seconded by Supervisor Trapp, it was RESOLVED that the town attorney write to the State Highway Department requesting investigation and the placement of a semaphore at the intersection of Highway 13 and Cedar Avenue. Mr. Alfred Willenbring, 1045 McKee Street, appeared with regard to the bad road conditions in McKee Addition. The Board directed the Town Attorney to write Mr. J. W. McKee in regard thereto. It appearing that the Eagan Township shooting Ordinance IX through over-sight had not been published according to law, on motion duly made and seconded, it was RESOLVED that said Ordinanoe be, and hereby is, adopted and approved as of this date hereOf. The matter of the representation of Bonestroo and Associates as Town Engineers was discussed further by the Board of Supervisors. Upon motion duly made by Chairman Rahn and seconded by Supervisor Trapp, it was RESOLVED that Bonestroo and Associates be advised to submit a proposal of charges and services to be offered. Upon motion, the meeting adjourned. ~. ...fA /1 C erk ~;~vu - 3 -
