Councilman Reimann said he looked at the area. <br /> <br />Councilman Cox noted that according to the ordinance, no building permits <br />should have been issued there. <br /> <br />Councilman Sorteberg said it appears the city made a mistake years ago and <br />he felt the city should attempt to partially fix the problem now. <br /> <br />City Engineer Raatikka said it would take roughly $13,000 to $14,000 to upgrade <br />it like the others. He said the city has not maintained or accepted the road <br />and it wasn't put in when the other streets were put in. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec noted there is no chance in the future of going across because of <br />the swamp. <br /> <br />A resident who was present at the meeting said his house is on the corner <br />179th & Yakima along with another house which belongs to Dave Bruce. He said <br />his property line is right at the center of the power line pole. <br /> <br />A discussion was held with the resident regarding his property there. <br /> <br />Councilman Sorteberg noted the council didn't need to determine the assessment <br />of that area at this point. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec said the council should determine whether or not to do the project, <br />whether or not to cut the project off at 179th or whether or not to leave <br />south of 179th off. <br /> <br />The resident said he would like to see it blacktopped so he could get into <br />his driveway. <br /> <br />City Engineer Raatikka expressed concern about bringing it up to his driveway <br />because of the other person living there also and this would total 230'. <br /> <br />The resident said his driveway is about 100'. He said he didn't know exactly <br />how it is platted out because the power line would have to be almost in the <br />center of the road. He said they should not'have been allo~ed~to put that power <br />line where they did. <br /> <br />City Attorney Goodrich informed the council that it is a city street, but <br />he didn't kn~w if it was inspected or not. <br /> <br />Councilman Cox said those people should never have gotten building permits. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec said this particular area will be assessed back to all the property <br />owners in this particular project. He recommended going ahead with the rest <br />of the project and leaving that area out. <br /> <br />Councilman Cox noted that the city is going to have to face the consequences <br />sooner or later. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec said it could be done for the two people living there or it could <br />be done for the people in the whole project. <br /> <br />C/June 24, 1980 <br /> Page 5 <br /> <br /> <br />
