Lungwitz, Walt Musty, Don Smith, The meeting was called to order by Ron Ho lund. The minutes of the June meeting were read and approved. Tom Eidem talked to Dale Lungwitz about t e O.D. Hendricks project. O.D. would like the street easement on the N. 40ft 0 lot 4 blk 1 (across from Best in Webb) the N. ~) dropped. At this point it serve no purpose. O.D. is concerned he will not have the required 50' for state urposes and the 40' required by the city. Having to set back his building 90' would not allow him to expand the buildinr.; in the future. O.D. wants to hav the set back start at the most northerly line instead of the most southe ly line. It is not a dedicated street at the present. Pringle says that we shou d agree to have the city drop the easement. The city is concerned that in t e future the city may need the prop- erty as an access drive to and from the w lIs. The city proposes to drop the street easement and give a driveway easem nt so that O. D. Hendricks can get as close to the line as possible. This then hould give him ample room for future expansion. If this is acted on, Hendricks is real close to closing a deal and relocating. Because of the closeness to N.S.P. (who will clean up the lime) he may save up $200,000 costs of preparin holding ponds, and eventually expand into the fire extinguisher line. Key Tool, Big Lake.
