MINUTES City Council April 8, 1987 Drainage On Mr. Frank Graczyk questioned why a storm sewer pipe was not being Sylvan Str. installed on vacated Lake Street and an open ditch was proposed to route runoff from Spruce Street to Sylvan. Graczyk also asked Agend~~ why the storm sewer on Spruce Street could not be run to County Item No. 7 Road C. The Engineer replied that the storm sewer could not be run to County Road C due to the slight hill in the area. The Engineer also pointed out the existing houses and driveways in existance on Spruce Street which would be effected by the storm sewer being extended. Graczyk was also concerned about the trees that would be lost in the vacated Lake Street area. The Engineer agreed that some of the trees will be lost, but stated that this would be kept to a minimum. The Engineer also agreed with Mr. Graczyk's suggestion that the storm sewer over vacated Lake Street should be piped rather than having an open ditch. The Engineer pointed out that the City has retained a 20 foot drainage easement in this area. Fahey asked if this storm sewer would be assessed against the property owners in the area. The City Clerk pointed out that the City does not assess storm sewer improvements. The Engineer pointed out that this area was one of the storm sewer projects that the Council previously looked at. The Engineer reported that he would present the Council with the cost of the project at the next meeting.
