paged of the report dated February 1977.`. A Profile had been assembled last Fall,
` November 1976, which contained information and statistics about the City, which are to
-'be used, now, in this second stage of planning. Mr. Licht emphasized "what you have.
now is what Isee--they are my ideas" and what I want now_are-your reactions to theme
and what your ideas are on what should be planned, as you see the future City of Lakeville
"It is a basisto respond, not a dictate", explained Mr. Licht. Other ideas .are invited.
There will be three stages of the planning of the new Comprehensive Plan. The first
stage was the "Profile", then development of Policy Plan, followed by "Ordinance Up-date".

Licht's ideas.

-deteroration cxmcerns, fixing up house benefits, removal of; substandard housing procedure,
subdivision zoning, PUD land use, encouragement of transit..
Moderate housing figures--maxima. is an income of $16,000 a year, and family-size of 6,
that can expect to have a subsidy.:
~'..~eteroration-- - cities have found several methods of dealing with deteri oration.
One method is to deal with the problem at the time. of sale--it has to be inspected.and
approved. Another; uses the `method of-dealing with it before the sale--there is, an
:inspection. A third way,-you can request an inspection, but it is not mandatory. In
some eases, .apartment licensing is.:.required.
Repair--it'was generally'coneeded that paint "uplift"and remodeling should `not be a basis
Por increased taxes. It is .asked that this be an agenda item for a future meeting..
B. Campbell asked if the brochure "Preliminary Policy Plan" is an outline of what cities
are required to have. The answer was "yes".
Substandard housing removal--was a concern of J. Asmus. Also how was it implemented,
once it-was determined. It had to be determined to be "hazardous"; not forcing people
'out without alternatives would. be another. guideline.

had been unable to return toriite. He would like to know where energy problems have been
addressed in the preliminary policy plan. Councilmember Curry asked that plat potential
