1 Council Work Session CITY OF LINO LAKES COUNCIL MINUTES October 20, 1993 Staff Members Present: City Engineer Schneider; Planning Coordinator Wyland; Engineering Consultant Powell, TKDA; EDAAB Chairman Wessel; City Administrator Schumacher. Resident Guide: Copies of the new Resident Guide were provided for Council review and information. They will be sent to all residents some time this week. Additional copies will be provided to new residents as occupancy occurs and a supply kept on hand at City Hall. It was suggested that copies be placed at the libraries and possibly service stations. Living Waters Church: City Engineer Schneider gave a brief history of this project and advised Council that installation of the sewer pipe to serve the church property has been delayed due to complications with the adjoining plat and permits from the RCWD. This sewer pipe installation is an important link to the trunk sewer system. The delay is due to a discrepancy between the wetland delineation done for the plat and the RCWD wetland determination. The area of discrepancy is the ditch. The plat of Country Lakes Estates could be in jeopardy, however, the Administrator for the RCWD indicated that resolution may be possible through mitigation. Mr. Schneider explained that the church could be connected to sewer on the north/east side of the site through the Black Duck Estates lift station, however, this is a more costly option ($45,000 compared to $20,000) and not preferred by staff or the church. If the pipe for the sewer line could be laid through the church property now - then the church could proceed with their site improvements (lighting, paving, parking areas, etc.), continue using the existing holding tank, and hopefully connect to the Country Lakes Estates sewer in the near future. This would be accomplished provided RCWD approves the plat. There is some risk 1 2 4
