Mayor Neisen turned the meeting over to Engineer Bearden who made the presenta-
tion of the project. Engineer Bearden stated that the project was entitled
"Sanitary Sewer, Water, Street and Storm Sewer 1973 -4 ". He presented several
maps using an overhead projector outlining the storm sewer boundary, the
placement of the proposed streets, the location of the existing streets, and
the location of the proposed storm sewer line with its relation to the existing
surface water drainage line. A drawing was displayed which showed the estimated
cost of the project to be as follows: Sanitary Sewer - $339,000.00, Water Mains -
$178,000.00, Streets - $234,000.00, Storm Sewer - $337,000.00, Easements -
$90,000.00. Total cost $1,178,000.00.
He stated that the front foot cost would be: sanitary sewer - $11.68, water
main - $5.71, streets - $11.12, storm sewer lateral - $10.47, easements - $4.29.
In addition storm sewer is to be assessed by an area assessment at the rate of
$ .00866 per square foot. Water services would be $253.90 each, and sewer
service would be $242.28 each.
Mayor Neisen called for questions or objections from the floor.
Mr. Arthur Spagenski, 8231 Eastwood asked why Greenwood Drive from Sherwood
Road to Ardan Avenue was not being installed. He said he has already paid
assessments on Eastwood Road and Ardan Avenue. Engineer Bearden replied that
the area south of Ardan Avenue was not petitioned for and was not within the
drainage boundary.
Mrs. Rosenquist, 8380 Spring Lake Road, stated that for $1,000,000.00 it would
be cheaper to buy up the areas where the new streets are to go. She said she
also has no water problem.
Mr. James Bergstrom, 8400 Red Oak Drive, asked where the storm water pipe was
to be laid in relation to his home. Engineer Bearden stated that it appeared
from the map, the pipe would go on his north boundary. He added that the pipe
may be able to be shifted by one or two lots.
