Mr. Gordon said Apple Valley could control the lake level by the installation of force mains which would pump water into ponding areas and eventually into the Fischer pond.

Councilman Hayes asked to have a copy of Burnsville's report. The City Clerk said the VAA building proposal was discussed October 7th as part Of the 1976 budget discussions and it appears the City will not have money available for it. It was suggested VAA could use the red room at the Country Club and the old warming house at Westview for storage now and place the building proposal on a future bond issue. Mr. Foley of the VAA said they might like to build J concrete block building for storage on land leased from the City near the Public Works Garage. The City could have the first option of buying the building when it is no longer needed. Mr. Foley will work with staff and look at the financial feasibility of a concrete block building.
