When we have it up to capacity, they will buy it back from us.

Councilmember Cox feels Rgnsey should object.

Council then set up a spec!aq Council Meeting to be held Monday, March 1, 1982, at 5:30 P.M. to discuss action to be taken regarding submittal of sewer plan. Mr. Raatikka - R~garding bkqA Street Improvenmnt Project, we are proposing assessing those with frontage on 167th in accor&~nce with assessment policy adopted a couple of years ago. If City plans to assess, a public hearing is req~i red. Mayor Gammc - Doesn't feel it is fair to assess just the residents of 167th, when there are so many n~re people in Ramsey who will benefit from this improvement. Mayor Gamec does think that maybe the business owners on 167th should be assess for tnrn~ lanes, etc. Council is in agreement to delete assessments for MSA Improverm~nt Project on 16th to residents and possibly assessing benefited btlsinesses. Mr. Raatikka inquired if property owned by Wes Bulen and Tom Anderson should be assessed. Mayor Gam~c suggested discussing this issue with the affected businesses. C/February 22, 1982 Page 12
