Mayor Warkentien: It would be financed by assessment. Mr. McCleary: I am assuming you are talking about punting in catch basins on the south side of Roselawn. 286? Engineer Lemberg: The ~.tean ate proposal was this at the last meeting and still having the right in the future to tie 3.n. The assessment is not based on arm engineering data. The normal assessment based on r`un-off formula and entire area would cost about $1,200 per lot.. But we refused this offer. The Village can divide this $350 up. Richard Bandon: Last meeting we talked about engineering aspects and was there a legal right to have drainage through this area? Attorney Seed: The straight answer is the law does not help you. If it could be shown that the natural flowage of water was to the north and that the water did flow to the north and did not collect and if it could be shown that prior to the area being developed, the water didn't collect to the area south of the line, then there would be a legal case. The difficulty is establishing, historically, water flowage to the north. Most, if not all, of the water did collect in ponding areas south of Roselawn. The real issue is this fact question. It doesn't look too promising for the residents south of Roselawn. Mr. Joyce: The County would have maps showing the prior collection of water. Engineer Lemberg: Some of the areas were filled as much as three feet. Mr. Blumfield After that pond is drained and dry, the construction company 1900 Tatum: intends to build. Th at means that Roseville would get the tax base; they just want us to pay; it's not going to benefit r~'alcon Beights. It rains so hard sometimes that no storm sewer would take it. Tatum Street has never been in better shape than it is today. I think that the water from Roselawn runs north . Engineer Lemberg: The other day I was out there. If flows in both directions; it Tits right in front of your driveway. I explained at the hearing that each lot would be cheked and those not contributing would not be assessed. The policy established is the direction it roans off the flow of the lot determines the district the lot will be in. I am not going to go into this. Attorney Seed: This is a very acceptable way of assessing. Engineer Lemberg: If we include those two lots on the corner of Summer and Prior, we pay $700 more. Mrs . I~.rd : If tY~ey are contriibuting water, then they should be paying . Engineer Leamb erg: They are paying for the south district when it comes in. It's just a means of determining this. 1
