Acting Mayor Kelly called the meeting to order at 7:32 p.m. Mr. Asleson presented copies
of the final resolution for Industrial Revenue Bond financing for the Apple Valley Health
Care Center as prepared by the City's Bond Counsel, Dorsey and Whitney. It was explained
that while the preliminary resolution approved an amount of not to'exceed $5,800,000, the
final resolution is in the amount of $5,700,000 with the decrease primarily related to
decreasing interest rates which affects the amount of capitalized interest required.

136, a Resolution granting final approval in the amount of
$5,700,000 for bonds being issued under Chapter 474 of the Minne-

Mr. Asleson then reviewed with the Council the memorandum of Mr. Gretz, dated October 15,
1982, related to a request by the Minnesota Department of Transportation that the City
of Apple Valley approve its plans for the construction of a bridge on Cedar Avenue at
127th Street. It was noted in the discussion that the plans specifically provide for a
six foot wide sidewalk as part of the bridge construction, a fact which could not be
determined at the Council's regular meeting of October 14, 1982, which in turn caused
consideration of the MnDOT request to be delayed until this date.
MOTION: of Savanick, seconded by Overgard, to approve Resolution No. 1982-
137, a resolution approving plans, special provisions, and speci-
fications related to the construction of a bridge by the Minnesota
Department of Transportation over Cedar Avenue or 127th Street.

The City Council reviewed a letter prepared by John Gretz related to the placement of
political signs. It was noted that the City Code prohibits the placement of political
signs on road rights-of-way. Mr, Asleson reviewed, with the Council, the difficulty
in enforcing this ordinance because of the varying right-of-way widths for different
roads in the City. He further commented that the removal process suggested in the
draft letter was modeled after the procedures of the Minnesota Department of Trans-
portation,
