Hanson, City Administrator DATE: March 3, 1995 RE: Frattalone Sewer Extension (Improvement #95 -1) MAYOR Michael 1. Fahey COGNC . Beverly Srel >e Jim LaValle Steve Mercian Bob Pedersen ADNIINISTRATOR Joel R. Hanson Attached is a copy of the feasibility report for the above - referenced project. Mr. Frattalone is interested in proceeding in order that he can obtain sewer service for his new building constructed to serve the recycling operation. He also had asked about the possibility of extending the sewer to the west along Ryan Drive. This would provide service to future lots he may develop as well as to three properties presently unserved by sanitary sewer on the north side of Ryan Drive. On Thursday, March 2, 1995, staff met with the three affected property owners to discuss this possibility with them and to determine their interest. At this meeting, they unequivocally stated they had no interest in sanitary sewer and did not want to be assessed for any improvement. (They may provide us with letters documenting their respective positions.) Based on the results of our meeting with the three property owners on the north side of Ryan Drive and on the fact that future development of the Frattalone property is still undetermined, staff would recommend that we proceed with Option #2A to provide service to the new Frattalone building. No extension of this line will be made along Ryan Drive to the east at this time. The issue to resolve is the question of assessments to benefitted property. As you will note on page 7 of the feasibility report, the cost of this project is estimated at $40,528. Staff would recommend that the three property owners on the north side of Ryan Drive not be assessed at this time. This would necessitate the City carrying $7,746 on its books until such time as those properties do connect to the sewer line. At that time, they would be subject to this cost (adjusted by the construction price index from 1995 until date connected) which would be added to the total price of any improvement undertaken to complete service to their property. In regard to Mr. Frattalone's property, staff would propose that he be assessed for all benefits received to his property Page 42 ,4144 c oal &_
