Request for 201 Sewer System Connection — Dan Rude The City Planner provided a chronology of the communications, assumptions and actions, since mid-2001, of Dan Rude's request to hook up to the 201 system on 32"d Street. The City Planner referenced a February 1, 2002 memo to the City from the City Engineer regarding design capacity of the 201 system on 32"d Street. According to this memo, the drainfield was designed to accommodate 1500 gallons per day or 10 bedrooms, using a soil sizing factor of 2.0. Further review of the soil indicates a factor of 1.27 could have been used, and the actual number of bedrooms that the system is designed to treat is 16. Dan Rude provided comments to the Council and staff regarding his requests to hook up to the 32"d Street 201 system. This document is made part of these minutes by reference. The City Administrator reminded the Council that the 201 Program was a federally funded program to upgrade faulty or failing septic systems in sensitive areas within the City (Such as lakeside properties), and was not intended to replace on -site systems for new construction. The Administrator recommended that any remaining capacity in the 32"d Street 201 be reserved for other lakeshore properties in the general vicinity of the 32"d Street system, as specified in Section 700 of the Lake Elmo Municipal Code. There was a home on 32"d Street that was recently allowed to hookup to the existing 201 system. The new home is set back 75 feet back (away from the lake) from the original home, but by doing that, the property owner eliminated a viable site for an on -site septic system. There is an agreement between the City and the property owner that the original home will be removed before a certificate of occupancy will be given for the new home. Council member Armstrong, who was on the Council at the time the 201 program was instituted, and Council member Dunn agreed the program was never intended to be a city LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES FEBRUARY 5, 2002
