lic hearing on. the application of a building permit by the Jehovah's
Witnesses for Lot 1, Farm Bureau addition.

"' nesses from Bloomington, Mendota, Hopkins', Northfield and two members
from Farmington.
After Mr. Larson was through with his explanation, a question
and answer discussion followed. Mr. Louis Borrell questioned the cost
of the building and asked how many local members there were. The ans-
wer was three local members and thirteen members lived in Dakota Coun-
ty. Mr. Borrell asked about the deed to the property and they ans-
wered that Mr. Christianson purchased the property for them. Mr.
Borrell asked why they wanted to locate here when there were only 3
members here in Farmington. Mr. Larson answered that they had a right
to locate here. Mr. Borrell said we haven't anything against the peo-
ple but felt the location was not suitable for a church. Mr. Larson
answered the size would be about the same as most of the homes in the
area and would conform to Village building code.
Mr. McBrien asked Mr. Larson if he realized that this location
or lot was one of the smallest in town and that most of the homes in
the area were on lots twice the size.
Mr. Erick Illich said most of us build in this area because it
was zoned for residence.
Mr. Rademacher asked what amount of the assets were in cash and
Mr. Larson answered about )3500.00 and that they were going to get
9,000.00 from the Watch Tower National organiation.
II Mrs. Molitor asked, "Why do you want to locate here when you are
not wanted in this location?"
Mrs. Matt Fischer brought up the fact that there wouldn't be
ample parking and that they would be parking in driveways, etc.

be looking at a parkin; lot from thei2 living room.
Mrs . Fischer s6id, "You just can't put that kind of a building
on that size lot."
Mr. Larson said from the experience he has had, the only time
they don't run into trouble is when ,heir g-;o out in the country to
locate.
Mrs. Borrell asked, "Why don't you build across the Highway?"
Mr. Larson said the location is more in the center of the group and
they were trying to build within the law.

Mr. Larson said, "Your property ill not be depreciated".
Mrs. Fischer asked Mr. Larson how he would like to have this
building next to his house.
Mr. Larson said, "You won't have to worry about noise during a
service".
Mrs. Fischer said, "We will have to -)ut up with 20 to 50 cars
instead of one or two".
Mr. Larson said, "Yes, at least three times a week. Jehovah's
Witnesses always build this type of building. This is not a commer-
cial venture of any kind.
Mrs. Borrell asked why they have to come and knock at our doors
so often.

Mr. Newton said, "It seems funny that ,rou restrict people
to come into town to trade and worship."
Mr. Borrell said, "You seem to be confused as to which way
the building will face".
Mr. Larson said, "I suppose we could face it to the East".
Mrs . Fischer said, "You can't find another house five feet
from the alley".
Rev. Anderson from the Assembly of God Church asked if he
could say a few words. Be said he was a minister of the Commun-
ity and had been listening to these objections. Then he read an
article about turning down a permit in some other area.
Mr. Newton asked Rev. Anderson if any one of his group had
asked him to appear and he said, "no".
At this time Mayor Rademacher said if there were no more ques-
tions hhe meeting would be closed and that the Council would make
their decisions later.
The next item of business had to do with garbage collection.
The income from the garbage the past year was about ; 1200.00 less
than the expenses. The charges for garbage collection was supposed
to provide a new truck every five years, or in other words, be self-
supporting. After some discussion a motion by Herman Hagen and sec-
onded by Art Steadman that we increase the regular house pickups to
33.00 per quarter and that the residence outside of the City limits

SPECIAL METING .
April 21,1958
The main purpose of the meeting was t ; discuss further the
application for a building permit for The Jehovah's Witnesses.
Mayor Rademacher asked Er. Larson, who was representing
Jehovah' s ditnesses , if he had anything new to bringup regard-
ing their permit. Mr. Larson made a few remarks and then Mr. John
McBrien read and presented his finding regarding the three Jehovah' s
Witnesses locations, namely; Bloomington, Hopkins and Golden Valley.
All three of these locati >ns had about three times as much ground
as the one in Farmington. After this report a question and answer
discussion resulted. Floyd Johnson asked thr. Larson if the prop-
erty had been deeded to the Jehovah's Witnesses yet. MT. Larson
produced the Deed showing that it had been deeded to them from IV1r.
Christenson on Dec. 22, 1956. Mayor Rademacher said he didn't think
they had enough ground. Mr. Larson said they had two proposals
showing the building setting two ways on the lot' and that they were
complying with the building code. Floyd Johnson asked if these
were the same plans that they had over to Hastings. lir. Larson
said no, that these were new ones. Art Steadman asked if the size
of the proposed building was about the same size as those in
276 ,441
Bloomington, Hopkins o Golden Valley. Mr. Larson said no,
this one was smaller. Mrs . Dona.le( Molitor pointed oizt that the
building in Bloomington was over 500 feet from the nearest home.
Floyd Johnson asked £ r. Larson about the date the Congregation was
organized and he said 1931. Mr. Johnson then asked if it was
right that they had only 3 members in Farmington and about 40 to
50 affiliated. Mr. Larson answered that this was right. Ar .
Borrell asked if the Jehovah's Witnesses had considered other
locations.' Yr. Newtgndsaid they had considered other locations
but had decided on this one. Mr. Larson said the reason for the
location was because it was central. Mr. Borrell stated that he
felt there was some misrepresentation. Mr. Christiansen bought
the property and couldn't remember if he told the Farm Bureau that
they were going to put a Kingdom Hall building on it. Mr. Borrell
said that three weeks ago he challenged the figures of ;23, 000.00.
Mr. ';'ayne Kelly asked the Council if they would be interested in
some figures he had gotten regarding the cost of this type of build-
ing. Mayor Rademacher said to present the figures. The figures
presented would total up to about X12,000. Mrs. Matt Fischer asked
Mr. Larson if the group had thought of buying the U. Evangelical
Building and he said they had, but their price was too high so they

by Herman Hagen. Being put to a vote, the Council voted as follows:
Steadman, yes; Johnson, yes; Hagen, yes; Bezdichek yes , Rademacher .
yes. Carried.
Mr. Larson attempted to cross examine the Mayor on the action of
the Council as to ordinance requirements. At this point Mr. McBrien
stated that no one Council member could make any statement on behalf
of the Council unless such statement was first authorized by vote of
the Council. If Mr. Larson, or any one of the group, wanted to talk
to any Councilman later when the Council was not in session, that would
be o an individual basis. Yr. Larson asked Mr. Rademacher if that was

[
beverage license which was tabled at the last meeting. Mrs. V.
Haller and Mrs. Fredenberg appeared and gave their views on why
we should not grant an off-sale license at this time. After much
discussion, a motion was made by Herman Hagen that we rescind our
motion granting R. Thelan an off-sale permit at our regular meeting
April 7, 1958. Motion seconded by Johnson. Being putt to a vote,

ority (the first 10 usually get the - --
money), City Attorney John Mc-
Brien was delegated by the coun-
cil to personally visit the water
polution control commission and
argue the matter. This was Octo-
ber 29.
McBrien discovered they rate
the villages by points, citing buy-
ing income, per capita cost, and
pollution control need. Farming-
ton had 71 points. He showed
them where they miscalculated
Farmington's rating, and that
three more points should be ad-
ded.
The addition of the three points
placed them tentatively in 10th
place. On Tuesday afternoon of
this week, the pollution commis-
sion officially decided Farmington
should be in 9th place, because
McBrien's application was placed
ahead of several other commu-
nities with whom they were tied
for points.
The announcement came from
Harvey Rogers, engineer for the
commission. He had reviewed all
the preliminary plans, and had
complete knowledge of the Farm-
ington situation, also of the pro-
posed new location.
No announcement was made as
to who the other successful cities
are concerning federal aid.
The city council was elated at
the news this morning. The 30%
also means that Twin City Milk
Producers, which was to pay a
third of the disposal plant cost,
will benefit from the 30% figure.
Farmington, by a narrow mar-
gin, recently approved a bond
issue of $295,000 for the plant.
Apparently, all of this amount
will not be needed.
"Let's quit squabbling and get
down to business", was Mayor
Ingerson's view on Wednesday
morning. He emphasized the need
for speed, or the village will lose
the federal aid. The bids must be
let by May 1st, and the work
must begin by June 1st of next
year before the city can get the
federal money.
The council was also informed

4 Judg Von't
Halt Loca
Sewage
Plant
District Court Judge W. A.
Schultz would not grant a tem-
porary injunction to Mr. and Mrs.
Marvin Kuchera of Farmington, k
who are seeking to halt the vil-
lage of Farmington from con-
struction of a sewage disposal
plant on the Lyle Bung site, 800
feet north of the city.
Judge Schultz heard arguments
from Kuchera's attorneys, David
L. Grannis Jr., and Luther Stal-
land; and from Farmington's City
Attorney, John McBrien. The
judge also read briefs on the mat-
ter, looked over sketches and an
airphoto of the sewage system,
Friday in district court at Has-
tings.
Supporting the Kucheras in
their contention the plant would
depreciate their property by giv-
ing off odors, were affidavits
from the following Farmington
residents: H. C. Simonsen, 1,200
feet distance; E. A. Brosseth,
2,000 feet away; F. W. Lehr, 1,800
feet; C. P. Spaniol, 1,600 feet;
Bernard Record, 1,500 feet; Wm.
Arendt, 1,700 feet away. Donald
Blaisdell, city engineer of South
St. Paul, also had an affidavit. -
The affidavits contend the
plant would make property unfit,
render it valuless as homesteads,
and that they would be required
to sell and move elsewhere, be-
cause of the odor the plant would
give off.
Mr.McBrien's case was support-
ed by an affidavit from Engineer
A. W. Banister, who has designed
more than 40 plants ranging from
$40,000 to one million dollars.
McBrien, also had an affidavit
from the water pollutioncontrol
commission, calling for the need
of the plant here.
Eighteen residents from Farm-
ington were present for the hear-
ing.
McBrien referred to the urgency
of the proceedings because of the
time table required in order to
keep the $109,000 federal grant.
The judge set Monday, March
31, as the time for the court trial
in the matter.
Mr. Grannis summed up the
case by saying if the plant were
placed on the Bung site, it would
cause irreparable damage giving
off noxious odor, and depreciating
the property. He said the village
did not seek advice other than
from one engineer. He told how
the creamery processes 800,000 lbs.
per day, and waste would give off
odors at the plant. Grannis also
showed a plat from Engineer Don-
ald Blaisdell showing alternate lo-
cations for a sewage plant.
Mr. McBrien said the plant is
similar to the type used by 90%_
of those in the area, and would
cause no objectionable odors with
reasonable maintenance. He read
a statement from Harvey Rogers,
of the state health department,
who said it would not cause odors
if operated with reasonable care.
He implied it would be an im-
provement over the present sys-
tern which empties into the river
untreated, and one of the outlets
was only 280 feet from the Kuch-
era house. He declared that Mrs.
Kuchera said this aid not cause
obnoxious odors.
After questioning the attorneys
on details of the plant, the judge
said he would allow the village to
go ahead. He suggested some
arrangement be made with the
complaining landowners whereby
the question of damage by odor,if
any, would be determined by a
jury. He suggested a limit of a
three-year period. If there was
damage, it could be paid for in
lump sums.
