III ITEMS OF BUSINESS
A. Resolution No. 71 -17 -R - Prior to discussion of the Resolution the Borough
Chairman asked to discuss the application presented by Mr. Eugene Brasie for
a fifty -five year lease of Tracts "H" and "I" of the Russian Creek Subdivision.
It appeared that his development plan did not meet the requirements as set forth
in the Borough Ordinances, in that a plan had to be set forth for the development
of each tract. Mr Brasie did set out the development plan for Tract "H" and
this does meet the requirements, however the plan for Tract "I" does not indicate
development and completion within the five year period. An additional letter
from Mt. Brasie was read by the Borough Clerk stating that in order to complete
the development of Tract "H" it would be necessary to complete the development
of the water supply on Tract "I ". It was the Borough Chairman's recommendation
that the two tracts "B" and "I" be withheld from the upcoming sale, but that
negotiations be started only on "H" until certain issues have been answered.
The Assembly concurred with this recommendation. The Resolution does not
include those lots requested for lease by the Lindholms nor the lots in Port Lions
First Addition. Mr. Sims moved for appatmalafResolution No. 71 -17 -R, seconded
by Mr. Arndt.
It was noted that a call had been received from Henry Eaton, President of KANA
who stated that an injunction would be placed against the Borough should the
long -term leases be signed. However Nh•. Eaton further noted that he had been
unable to reach his lawyer, Mr. Miller concerning this matter. The Borough
Chairman expressed his feelings that the Borough does own the land, the State has
given TA to the Borough to this land and we have a right to sell the land. During
the discussion it was thought that perhaps two land sales would be better, but
determined that one sale to include those lots in Bells Flats, Russian Creek
and other that have reverted to the Borough through default or foreclosure
should be conducted. The question was called for and the motion passed by
unanimous roll call vote.
B. 1st Re.• _ Ordinance No. 71 -11-0 Re • Lots 1 thro : 7 Block 2 Allman
Addition vwn R -1 to R -3, read in full by the Borough Chairman. Mt. ackson
moved for approval of Ordinance No. 71 -11-0 in the first reading, seconded by
NIr. Arndt. Mt Sims asked what action had been taken on the penalty in this
matter. The Borough Chairman asked that this be discussed at this time to
determine the exact amount the Borough Assembly felt would be Justified and
recommended a nominal fine. Mr. Jackson did not feel that the Borough Assembly
had the right to set a fine. Mr. Sims recommended a fine of $150 per violation
and since there mere three violations the fine would be $450.00. He had talked
with Mt. Cessna and Mr. Cessna was agreeable to this fine. The Borough Assembly
Members agreed that this would be a proper fine for the three violations,
miszonigg, lot size and proceeding without a permit. The question was called
for on the approval of the Ordinance and passed by unanimous roll call vote in
the First Reading.
