5 A. Update on Sewer/Water Study, Todd Hubmer. WSB & Associates.
6 Mayor Hodson welcomed Todd Hubmer, WSB & Associates, to the meeting.
7
8 Mr. Hubmer addressed the Council and provided an update on the Sewer and Water Study. He
9 reviewed the results of the Sanitary Sewer and Water Studies. Mr. Hubmer noted the study
10 broke down into three categories, immediate maintenance needs, non-recurring maintenance
11 improvements and development driven improvements.
12
13 Mr. Hubmer reviewed the immediate maintenance needs for the City of St. Anthony and noted
14 the total cost for these improvements would be$2,429,000. He overviewed the non-recurring
15 maintenance improvements and stated these improvements would be$1,049,000. Mr. Hubmer
16 stated the development driven improvements would cost around $3,129,000, for a total of
17 $6,600,000 in water and sewer improvement needs.
18
19 Councilmember Thuesen reiterated to the residents that the City is preparing a water security
20 strategy plan as a result of the 9/11 incident and was a necessary mandated expense.
21
Councilmember Sparks asked if the funding of these items were going to be discussed. Mr.
Hubmer noted this would be addressed under Item VI B.
24
25 B. Ordinance 2002-006.re: Water Rate Increase(1'Reading)
26 Mr. Hubmer reviewed the water rate increases with the Council. He noted the high level of
27 rainfall this past year led to a higher water treatment cost for the City of St. Anthony. He noted
28 with these treatment costs and increase in water rates, the quarterly water rates would go from
29 $31.80 per quarter for the average senior to $36.30 per quarter for 2003. He noted these rates
30 were for minimum usage by a resident.
31
32 Mayor Hodson asked if the suggested increases would cover all of the water and sewer
33 maintenance needs proposed. Mr. Hubmer stated he feels this would be sufficient as new
34 revenue sources would continue to develop throughout the City, and with the additional funding
35 created by the proposed adjustments in the water and sewer rates these improvements would be
36 covered. He noted the proposed maintenance items would have a total net increase of$28.56 per
37 quarter.
38
39 Councilmember Thuesen asked if filtration funds could be used to cover some of these water and
40 sewer improvement expenses. Mr. Hubmer stated the filtration funds are more of a safeguard
41 and are not used to cover improvements to city water and sewer.
42
43 Councilmember Sparks stated she felt the non-recurring maintenance improvements should have
priority at this time, especially the need for increased infiltration monitoring. She asked if the
Mississippi Watershed Management Organization could assist in funding the infiltration issues.
46 Mr. Hubmer stated he has been in discussion with this organization but stated this has been an

Councilmember Thuesen noted this increase does not correct the UI issue. Councilmember
