MINUTES ~ ~ ~~ REGULAR CITY COU:~C IL MEETING NovII~ 9, 1983 PAGE 6 that the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission build anew sanitary OVII~.FI,OW sewer to pick up sewage from that end of town and sell the eacisting (cont. ) combined sewer back to the City of St. Paul, which would accomplish two things: (1) the combined sewer wauld then become a storm sewer that would take the overflows from Phalen and Beaver Lakes and (2) provide the City of St. Paul with the future connection to separate the entire area. The Waste Control Commission would install an $11,000,000 facility which would be paid for by residents in Sewer Dist- rict No. 1 and the intercepter sold back to St. Paul in the amount of $1,000,000 to $5,000,000. St. Paul would then charge the users to help pay for the purchase. By 1985, as part of the overall solution, the overflow charges for McCarrons and Como would be dropped from being charged directly to the parties involved. Engineer Schunicht recommended that Falcon Heights agree to participate in the whole solution which would increase the sewer charges to the City by $8,000 per year for 15 years, but would be a final solution. Mayor Warkentien and Engineer Schuni.cht will attend the November 17th meeting of the Lake Overflow Technical Advisory Committee and at that time an opinion would be expressed as to whether or not the City agrees with the recommended solution. After further discussion, Council concurred that it is a reasonable solution and should be supported. cauNCILMEMBEa Councilmesnber Eggert departed at ZOs03 P.M. EGGERT DEPARTS Engineer Schunicht reviewed his continued work on participation in the watershed districts. After a discussion on participation charges, ~TATERSHED benefits and voting procures, it was decided to discuss at a f~ituz?e UPDATE date whether watershed matters should require a nn~n;m,ous vote, a three-fifths or four-fifths vote. Council noted a letter from the Board of Ramsey County Commissioners RICE CREEK advising that the term of Lloyd H. Scott, Sr., presently a meanber of the WATERSHED Rice Creek Watershed District Board of Managers, will expire on January 17, APPOINTMENT 1983.

RATE NOTED Engineer Schunicht explained the berming that is taking place as a part of the Hewlett Packard addition. Residents have been concerned regarding: ~~~ (1) the proximity of the smaller berm to the property lines, and (2) the PACKARD height of the larger berm. He felt the smaller bean was within areason- BER1~tNG able distance, but that the slope of the larger berm would be pushed back ~pI,~gl~ geatly instead of the abrupt slope presently existing. This is being accomplished at Engineer Schunicht~s direction.
