� <br />� <br />�, <br />City of <br />Pequot <br />Lakes _- <br />Date: <br />AGENDA ITEM #11.1 <br />REPORT TO <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />July 3, 2012 <br />Subiect: Rathcke Property <br />Report: At the May Council meeting the Council <br />considered whether it would be interested in accepting a <br />gift of property from the Rathcke estate. The Council was <br />informed that the property had been a dump site in the past. <br />The Council requested staff to research the possibility of <br />environmental hazards on the property prior to making a <br />decision as to whether or not to accept the property. <br />There was an Environmental Site Assessment completed on <br />the property in 2003. A copy of the Executive Summary is <br />enclosed. There appears to be excessive amounts of several <br />minerals in the soil according to the report. <br />If the City is truly interested in pursuing this property, the <br />Council would want to consider hiring WSN to complete <br />another assessment of the property. Based on what the City <br />knows about the property, it may not be in the best interest <br />to accept this property. <br />
