Water pollution prevention is basically an area responsibility and is best handled at the local and state levels. d. Steps taken in advance,to prevent water pollution are more economical than future corrective measures. WHEREAS, the Rochester Board of Public Health and Welfare has requested action on this matter, and WHEREAS, it is the opinion of the Common Council of the -City of Rochester that the.best interests of the health and welfare of the people of'this community will be.served by steps presently taken to avoid pollution of our creeks, now therefore THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROCHESTER HEREBY.RESOLVES: That the State of Minnesota Water Pollution Control Commission is hereby requested to prohibit the discharge of untreated wastes and place strict limitations on the discharge of treated wastes in the creeks of the Zumbro River watershed in the area surraounding the City of Rochester, Minnesota."

(Relocation of Circle -Parkway Between -18th Ave: N: W.-and County -State -Aid Highway No: 2; -14th -St N.E. Gentlemen: The City Planning and Zoning Commission at a special meeting held May 16, 1962 re-examined the proposed Thoroughfare Plan for the City of Rochester relative to the relocation of Circle Parkway from U.- S. 52 North, east'to County State Aid Highway No. 2, 14th St..N.•E. The present proposal to revise the aligivaent of Circle Parkway proposes a straight easterly alignment of this route from 37th St. N. W. East to U. S. 63. .At this point the route would head in a southeasterly direction up a valley and would tie.in with Circle Parkway as it is now proposed on the easterly side of the City of Rochester. We feel that because many of the abutting landowners in Cascade Township have indicated to us that they would be willing to dedicate an ample amount of property for the right-of-way of this street that this is a major consideration in our delibwrations to relocate the Circle Parkway. We also feel that the major justification for this .route, to provide a 0 Record of Official Proceedings of the Common Council of the City of Rochester, Minn., May 21, 1962 FY=9B252 circulation system between U.-2. 52 North and U.S. 63 North, is accomplished under both plans and in substantially the same location.
