MINUTES CITY COUNCIL December 13, 1989 time, with road construction to be a two-year process. The first course would be installed in 1990, with the final overlay done in 1991. Blesener stated that he was agreeable to that. Wilson pointed out that storm sewer would go in with other utilities, which would be completed by June of 1990. Wilson pointed out that that means that storm sewer would be directed off the Boosalis property onto another property. There are no easements for this. Wilson also pointed out the estimates to run the storm sewer north of the Boosalis property are $45,000, and asked how these costs would be paid. Wilson also pointed out that the northern storm sewer easements might be difficult to obtain. Fahey suggested that the City Attorney be authorized to obtain the necessary storm sewer easements. Fahey pointed out that previous Council concensus was that all the benefited properties would share in the cost of the storm sewer improvement, including Iona Lane properties if further study of the situation shows that these properties benefit. Boosalis pointed out that his engineering plans show that the rate of storm water flow from his property has been decreased given the ponding improvements that will be made to the site. As a result, Boosalis felt that the storm sewer improvements necessary to the north of his site are not due to his development. Fahey pointed out that the assessment issue is one that needs further study. The City Engineer pointed out that the amount of water leaving the site will not be decreased, however, the rate of flow of the storm water leaving the site is decreased as a result of Boosalis's engineering plan. Scalze suggested that the development agreement address the issue of a possible assessment for the Boosalis property for the storm sewer improvement that is necessary to the north. Council agreed. Fahey pointed out that a public hearing would also be necessary on the assessment issue. Page 12
