September 22, 1980 this is in relation to the request for sewers at the 49 Club. Mr. Schumacher said that Mr. Nathe will petition the City for the installition of sewer service in that area. There was some discussion of the feasibility of this installition and the possibility of the inclusion of other properties. This petition will be con- sidered when received. Mrs. Elsenpeter. asked to discuss the actions of North Central Public Service in the installation of gas lines into the Pine Haven Plat. She asked for some assistance from this Council in getting this service before the heating season. Mayor Gourley asked that a letter be written to North Central asking that this area be handled as soon as possible. Mr. Dick Paulson appeared before the Council to discuss the drainage problems on the corner of Highway #8 and Main Street. Mayor Gourley said he had discussed this matter with the manager of the Tom Thumb store and he had agreed to allow a drain tile to be installed in the berm to drain into the holding pond at that location. North Northeast also said they would do some elevations to determine the flow of the water. Mr. Paulson pointed out that one �f the culverts is plugged. This is a County cul- vert and suggested that Mr. Paulson talk to the County. He said he had a couple of times with no results. Mr. Kulaszewicz suggested that the City Engineer take a look of this and present some alternatives for the solution of this problem. Mayor Gourley said he was trying to get this problem taken care of without involving the City personnel. Mr Kulaszewicz moved to instruct the City Engineer to look at this problem and pre- sent a solution. Mrs. Elsenpeter felt that if the City allowed the Tom Thumb construction, then this no longer a meighborhood problem, but a City problem in that the City allowed the construction. Mr. Schumacher said he had talked with Mr. Mobley about Tom Thumb Lnstallation and at this tiee, they do not aave a legal occupancy. jThere were certain things that were to be completed and has not been completed. Mr. Jaworski asked if the plans for the Tom Thumb had been presented to the RCWB? Mr. Schumacher indicated that he had done some research and could not find where this had been presented to RCWB. Mr. Gotwald felt this problem will be solved when the County completes its work on' Highway #8. Mr. Kulaszewicz added to his motion, that this work be done and the cost be billed to Tom Thumb and present the solution to the problem be presented to the property owners. Mr. Schumacher requested that the County Engineers and the Building In- spectors be involved in this also. Mr. Paulson said he would like some solution to this problem in that he wants to put in a new septic system before the winter. Mr. Schumacher warned the Council that if City staff becomes involved it would be precedent setting for future drain- age concerns on private property and the City may become liable for damages.
