Mr. Meyers explained that this Project will finish up everything
North of Highway 10. He also stated that the Council, and he agrees
wjth them -that Area development should be encouraged in ?dater Projects
because it is cheaper in the long run. He said "we know now from
experience that a year from now we will be getting requests for
Water from some of these streets that have petitioned against it.
The Attorney complimented the Village for installing the Water
Main system as it's strictly a job of developing the areas by Laterals
now, Using New Brighton as an example,of a Village expanding their
Water System by streets instead of area, which is more costly.
He explained that the Council could order improvements for one
street if there is a definite reason such as a health hazard.
Mr. Christensen arrived at this point - 8 :50 P.M.
Mr. Knutson explained the reasons for the seemingly excessive
cost of the Service Connection as being due to usage of copper and
brass fittings and pipe, etc.
The Water Rates were read by the Fiscal Agent for the benefit
of those present.
Mr. Ehlers explained the costs of Water Assessments on Project
1960. -3. Figures set are - +0025 cent per foot for Area. The cost
of Lateral Assessment for people butted on 12 inch mains is y4.00
per foot on frontage.
Mayor Crane stated that the residents created a "real storm"
of protests (on Fairchild) when Project 1960 -3 was installed. It was
just a matter of 6 months that they petitioned for water on that same
street.
