The letter from Dr. N. E. .Christensen, President of the Board of Health, had been read and filed away for future references. The Board of',Health have again requested you to make $10,000.00 or thereabouts available for the purchase of a. new truck to replace the worn-out 1945 garbage truck. If, after investigation, you find there are sufficient monies in the General Fund ear -marked for contingencies (which I believe are sufficient), may I recommend that you have specifications prepa-re,d and an advertise- ment for!'bids inserted in the proper media as soon as possible. The condition of some of these trucks are .such that they can hardly be permitted on the highways and continuous repairs would be costlier than the purchase of a new truck. 2 The acquisition of one half acre on the Car-1 Erlford Property must be accomplished immediately (either by negotiation or con- demnation) if the City of Rochester expects -the erection on schedule of the w atet- tower for which the contract has already been lets • The City ^should without.dela y, complete plans to acquire land 680 Record of Official Proceedings of the Common Council of the City of Rochester, Minn., August 26, 1957 • from Mrs. Bodke and the other two hojo:e owners on 7th St. N.S. in order to widen the primary street now nearing completion.

The fallowing letter from the Board of Education was read: "Honorabl'e Mayor and Members 'of the Common Council City Hall Rochester, Minnesota Gentlemen: The Rochester Board of Education has asked me to write to you con- cerning,the damages to lawns and gardens of citizens living on 13th Avenue N'. W. As you know, the City and School District have a request to jointly pay damages of $150.00 to the property located at I107 13th Ave. N. W. and $100.00 to the property located at 1111 13 th Ave N. W. After reviewing the problem, the Board of Education f eels that they have taken reasonable care and precaution to prevent damages to the property, in question. We shall be happy to work'with you to immediately install a storm sewer to solve the problem. As evidence of the deep concern and good intent of the Board of 4ducatioln, we are listing the following items showing our action and our costs involved in preventing more extensive damage. 1. On July 11, 1957 earth moving equipment was employed to clear and deepen the ditch to the rear of the property -on 13th Street in order that we might carry the.water from the school site. At the same time we also built dams and drains to drain the school property into our already ,constructed storm.drains. At this time we also plugged the storm drain that will eventually empty into the storm sewer to be located 'along the eastern boundary of the new high school site. This cost about $52.00. 2. At various times during the summer after heavy rains it was necessary for us to install water pumps and pump water out of the southern!, boundary of the school property from the hundreds of feet of plugged storm drains. On July 31, 1957 we received a bill for $361.15 for labor, gasoline, and pumps to pay for ,the remmal of water out of the south boundary of the school site rather than allowing it to flow along the east boundary. 3. On July 11, 1957 we again employed Leon Joyce to clean the ditch on the east property line. The bill for this work arrived on August 7 in the amount of $112.50. The Board of Education is certainly sorry to have this situation arise, and yet we feel, that we have taken every reasonable precaution to help alleviate any possible damage. The Board further believes that they .should not pay the damagesrequested. The Board of Education will be pleased to have your reaction to this letter and, of course, wants to do everything possible to maintain its cordial and understanding relationships with the city administration. May we hear from you at your convenience? Sincerely, s JAMES V. MOOD? Superintendent" R. V. Ehrick, City Attorney, reported that he and the City Engineer were working on this matter, so a motion was made by Morris, second by Schroeder, that this letter be tabled until the next meeting.
