Motion carried. Voting yes Mayor Gamec, Councilmen Reimann, Mickelson and Cox. Voting no None. City Engineer Raatikka asked about the bike trail for Brook View Estates and if he should pursue. Councilman Mickelson stated it is not a real heavily travelled area and shouldn't be of too much concern. Councilman Cox stated it seems to be a bike trail now. Councilman Reimann asked about the drainage problem for the area and if some of the dirt from the street could be put in back of those peoples homes to try and eleviate the problem. Attorney Goodrich said that if you start moving dirt to eleviate the drainage problem in one area it may benefit one more than another. Mr. Steve Schmidt asked if the resolution just passed addressed the assessment or is it strictly for the project.
