AGENDA ITEM: Olson Lake Trail Sanitary Sewer Extension – Resolution No. 2013-19
Accepting the Amended Report and Declaring Costs to be Assessed
SUBMITTED BY: Jack Griffin, City Engineer

REVIEWED BY: Adam Bell, City Clerk
Cathy Bendel, Finance Director
Chad Isakson, Project Engineer
SUMMARY AND ACTION REQUESTED: The City Council is respectfully requested to
consider approving Resolution No. 2013-19 Accepting the Amended Feasibility Report for the
Olson Lake Trail Sanitary Sewer Extension, and Declaring Costs to be Assessed in the amount of
$92,500.
STAFF REPORT: The Olson Lake Trail Sanitary Sewer Extension Feasibility Report was
presented and approved at the February 19, 2013 council meeting. Following this meeting staff
was contacted by the property owner located at 4709 Olson Lake Trail, requesting to be
included, if possible, as part of the 2013 Sewer Extension project. Staff reviewed this request and
determined that inclusion with the 2013 improvement project may be possible but cannot be
determined with certainty until detailed design work is completed. Given the adopted project
assessment methodology, the proposed unit assessment remains unchanged for all properties, at
$18,500. The addition of one property results only in the city recovering more costs up front.
Upon review of the assessment procedures, staff determined that it would be best to add this
property to the proposed project, understanding that if the detailed design work determines that
the property cannot be accommodated in 2013 it will be more effective to remove them from the
project than to try to add the property at a later date.
The Feasibility Report was therefore amended to include one additional property to the scope of
improvements to be constructed in 2013. The Report amends the construction quantities
necessary to include the additional property, the estimated project costs, the preliminary
assessment roll, and the report exhibit. The estimated project cost increased from $128,000 to
2
$141,000. The amount of costs declared to be assessed as part of the 2013 improvement project
increases to $92,500 and the city carrying costs for the future extension project is reduced from
$17,000 down to $11,500.
The property located at 4709 Olson Lake Trail was included in the individual notices provided
for both the Improvement Hearing and Final Assessment Hearing.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the City Council consider approving
Resolution No. 2013-19 Accepting the Amended Feasibility Report for the Olson Lake Trail
Sanitary Sewer Extension; and consider Declaring Costs to be Assessed in the amount of
$92,500.
