The Council directed Peter to draft a proposal for cost-sharing with Wright County similar to the co-operative agreement signed for the CSAH 19/37 Intersection Realignment Project for the Council to review on March 1 st. Carlson requested the Council consider withdrawing its designation of Wright Soil and Water Conservation Board as the Local Governmental Unit (LGU) for wetland determinations. According to Carlson, WSWC is becoming very conservative and is leaning toward avoiding wetlands altogether. Accordingly, Carlson believes, some developments are required to conform to the WSCW rules and are not in the City's best interests. Linda was asked to review the minutes from the past to check if there was a time limit set for the duration of the appointment of the WCSC as LGU. .
