Next week's hearing <br />will cover the area with larger lots. <br />It was again pointed out that the primary purpose of the hearing was <br />to supply the residents with information as to what the entire sewer program <br />is about. This includes engineering details and the financial proposals in- <br />volved. This will give everyone the chance to see how it affects him individual- <br />ly and, if he does not approve, to so voice his objections, or clarify any <br />misunderstandings. If the improvement is ordered, assessment hearings will <br />be held at a later date. So there can be no misunderstanding, Mr. Meyers again <br />reiterated- - "The hearing tonight is primarily to see whether or not these <br />improvements should be ordered." <br />Mr. Meyers then introduced Mr. Les Knutsen, Engineer with Comstock & <br />Davis who gave a review of the technical background of this project. A series <br />of maps were displayed which defined the area to be covered by sewer improve- <br />ment, method of drainage, and the proposed building which would house the <br />maintenance equipment for the Village. Mr. Knutsen stated that seven reports <br />were submitted to the Council representing a great deal of consideration on <br />their part in the entire matter. He gave a review of the items discussed <br />last week involving the construction of the main interceptor system to serve <br />the entire Village. He emphasized that this is a drainage proposal for the <br />community and not a storm drainage system. The drainage system concerns <br />three areas all outletting to Rice Creek. The system itself has a twofold <br />purpose -- elevation and soil type had to be considered. The additional <br />feature of the drainage system is the addition of culverts over all roads <br />and right of ways. The proposed construction takes into consideration the <br />present needs and future development requirements. It is of sufficient depth <br />
