Mayor Crane called the meeting to order and explained the
purpose of conducting the hearing on Proposed Water Service Extension*
in an area between Highway 10 to North Village limits and from
Edgewood Drive to West Spring Lake Park Road. He than turned the
meeting over to Engineer, Les Knutson.
Mr. Knutson explained that petitions were received by the Council
until April 1st, 1961 for Water Service. From these petitions the
Council asked for and received a Preliminary Report from the Engineer.
After receiving this report, the Council felt that abutting areas
may also want Water Service, and taking into consideration that certain
connections would be necessary to properly loop the system, some areas
were extended beyond the petitioners homes.
The Engineer stated that a rough estimate of the entire cost
would be $181,500.00. This would mean an estimated assessment of
$4.15 per front foot plus a $115.00 Service Connection charge per home.
The Fiscal Agent than explained the financing of the Project,
Mr. Ehlers stated, the only change the Council contemplates is the
financing of Assessments from a 15 year option to 10 years, keeping
in mind the future needs of the Village, such as sewer or storm sewers.
Using a 10 year plan, as an exanple,.assuming it's a $400,00
1 -essrjent, it would amount to about $53.20 a year, or .150 a day to
pay off the Capital part of the Water Works Improvement.
Anyone wishing to pay up their Assesssment without interest may
do so within 30 days after the Assessment roll is adopted, or they
can pay it up anytime with interest up to December 31st in the year
payment is made.
The Mayor asked if there were any Petitions for or against the
Proposed Project.
Three Petitions and a letter were received (latter nrrke(: as
Petition 4) - Objector's as follows:
