Mr. Andrew Trelstad, 7761 Eastwood Drive, requested the Village tb ease the water problem in his area. The Engineer informed him that although a ditch on either side of the road would keep the water from the street off his property, the only final solution would be a storm sewer project.

The Engineer explained the project and gave estimated costs as follows: Estimated total project price including service Connections $45,000.00 Estimated Front footage assessment $4.76 per foot. Estimated service connection charge $120.00 per connection The Engineer then explained that because of expected "wet" construction the cost of the project was figured somewhat higher than other recent projects. The Mayor asked for objections to the project and they were as follows: 1. Mr. Ray Faricy, Attorney for Don Voge Highway #8 and County Road J. Reason will not use and does not need the water. Feels that the line will serve no purpose abutting his property. 2. George Jackson, 8300 Highway #8, objected for the same reason. The Engineer explained that to make the system as free from "dead end" lines as possible the system should be looped and this loop represents the lines abutting the properties of Mr. Voge and Mr. Jackson. The Mayor asked for proponents of the project and they were as follows: Mrs. James Fedorko 5237 Edgewood Drive Mr. Jack Morgan 8241 Edgewood and Mr. Tollefson whc own several lots in the project area.
