Motion made by Carl Carlson and seconded by Russ Jones to pass the follow- ing resolution: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING SETTS WITH CRO19STR 6 BE IT RESOLVED by the Village Council of the Village of Brooklyn Center as Follows: 1. It appears from the files in the village office that a number of heating installations have been made by Cronstroms Heating & Sheet Metal, Inc. from time to time which in some cases occurred without the securing of a permit as required by ordinance. 2. This matter has been discussed at length between the representatives of dronstrom; and the officials of the village and their legal counsel, and it is determined that in order to settle the dispute with Cronstroms as to the amounts owing fox those installations for which permits have not been taken, that permits may be issued upon payment of the following fees: (a) For those installations commenced prior to April 11, 1955 a permit fee shall be issued upon payment of $5.00 for each such installation, said fee being the amount then required under the ordin- ance and it appearing that in good faith Cronstroms Heating &Sheet Metal, Inc. may not have been aware of the requirement for permits prior to such time. (b) For those installations commenced between April,ll, 1955 and April 18, 1957 a double fee shall be charged in the amount of $10.00, it appearing that during this interval Cronstroms was aware of the re- quirement for licenses and permits and no valid excuse exists for their failure to secure the same, the date of April 18, 1957 being the date of the publication of an ordinance establishing new Pees for such installations. (c) For those installations commenced between April 18, 1957 and August 29, 1957, a tee of $13.25 shall be charged for each permit or such other amount as is required by the ordinance published on April 18, 1957, but no double permit shall be required in con - nection therewith, it appearing that a number of per - mits were held up by Cronstroms Heating & Sheet Metal, Inc. under the belief that the Village might reconsider the ordinance adopted April 18, 1957 which established a higher fee schedule. -3- (d) For those installationa commencing after August 29, 1957 for which no permit was taken out as required by ordinance, a double fee shall be charged for all such permits based upon the- prevail- ing schedule under the amendment to the ordinance published April 18, 1957, it appearing that Cron- stroms had no valid excuse or reason justifying their failure to take out permits after said date, there having been a conference with Cronstroms on said date in which Cronstroms was informed that no change in the higher fee schedule was contemplated'. 3. The foregoing is regarded as a policy established to achieve a settlement with Cronstroms Heating & Sheet Metal, Inc. to which it has agreed. In the event that Cronstroms fails to secure all of the permits for all installations made since the village ordinance was originally adopted requiring permits for heating installations, then and in that event the village shall, not be bound by this resolution and may elect to pursue such l remedies as it has under the ordinance and laws of this state ` without reference to this resolution.
