PUBLIC HEARING - SILVER LAKE ROAD UTILITIES
Mr. Boxrud of Short - Elliott- Hendrickson, Inc. summarized the update of City Project
1978 -6. The water service would connect to an existing 12" water main in the
boulevard area of Silver Lake Road near the apartments at 7750 Silver Lake Road
down to Bronson Drive where it would connect to another 12" water main. A 6" pipe
would cross Silver Lake Road to serve the Realty Man Properties. Of the total cost
of $65,665, $9,000 would be attributable to services crossing Silver Lake Road
and they would pay for this separately. Those west of Silver Lake Road would be
subject to a front footage assessment. With 1700 assessable feet, this would amount
to $33.33 per front foot for parcels west of Silver Lake Road.
Sewer service, Alternate 1, would run within the paved area of County Road I between
Groveland and Silver Lake Road and south 400 feet in the boulevard area along
Silver Lake Road. This would serve the east half of lots 1, 2, 3 and 4, although
lot #4 would require some earth work. Service would also be provided to the north
portion of lot #10, as well as lots 7, 8 and 9 from manhole in the paved area of
Silver Lake Road at Bronson Drive. Lots 5, 6 and 7 would not be served nor assessed.
Total cost of Alternate 1 would be $64,450 with 864 front footage at $74.59 per front
foot assessed to lots 1, 2, 3, 4 7, 8, 9 and north portion of #10.
Alternate 2 would provide the same service as Alternate 1, except installation would
be deeper and would service all lots between Bronson and County Road I, as well as
west of Silver Lake Road. Building elevations would have to be carefully controlled.
Both alternates would require easements, Alternate 2 for all properties between
Bronson Drive and County Road I along Silver Lake Road. Alternate 1 would not
require easements of lots 5, 6 and 7 but it would be preferred.
The total cost of Alternate 2 is $46,845 for 1260 feet of assessable footage or
$37.18 per front foot. Alternate 1, without service to lots 5, 6 and 7 would run
$54.22 per front foot for total of 864 assessable footage.
Mr. Boxrud stated he recommends Alternate 2 because it serves more frontage at a
lower cost. The total estimated cost for sewer and water service is $112,510 with
an assessable cost per front foot of $70.51, plus any easement costs. At this time,
the easement costs are unknown.
Mayor McCarty questioned if the manhole would be recessed. Mr. Boxrud indicated
there was probably an invert in there, but it was common practice to rework it.
Mayor McCarty asked if there would be an assessment on both sides of the corner
of County Road I and Groveland and Bronson and Silver Lake Road. Mr. Boxrud
indicated there would be only one front foot assessment on Silver Lake Road with
none on County Road I or Bronson.
Kay Gilman, 7565 Groveland Road, questioned how deep the pilings should be to make
her lot #7 buildable.
Mr. Winiecki, 7575 Groveland Road, asked if the City didn't put in utilities, and
lots 5, 6 and 7 were built on, where would the water go. Would the culvert be taken
out or would a ditch be retained which would run in front of someone's property.
Mr. Boxrud replied the drainage would run along lot lines but might run in front of
someone's property. The owner could build up their driveway over the culvert.
