11iusisto: If the system is put in and is adequate, you will not have <br /> ``f� to take it out. <br /> Resident: Is it possible to find out how high DNR will allow the lake <br /> to go? <br /> Kuusisto: We are. looking into that now. <br /> Schletty: That culvert is pretty small - there is nothing saying that <br /> we can't get it changed. <br /> Kuusisto: We have talked to Rice Creek about it and they said we could <br /> investigate it. We told them the lake is rising faster than <br /> it can overflow. <br /> Creager: If there was an adequate treatment system, would the lot size <br /> requirement be changed? <br /> Kuusisto: I can't answer that. It is the small lot size that has con- <br /> tributed to the problem and we aren't looking for a solution <br /> so that there can be smaller lot sizes. <br /> J. Crever: I have a sister that lives on 3rd Lake in Forest Lake and <br /> they had an interceptor run out to them several years ago. <br /> If we spend this money now and in several years the interceptor <br /> comes out and we could hook up, what then? <br /> Lease: We have been reminded several times that the interceptor was- <br /> n't built for Hugo, it was built for Forest Lake and I don't <br /> think we are going to get sewer from Stillwater. <br /> J Crever: How far are we away from Goodview as the crow flies? <br /> Lease: I think the question is what kind of a line would we build? <br /> a line under pressure or one that everyone could hook up to. <br /> We don't have all the answers; we are looking for input <br /> from you. <br /> Smith: I think they have too many problems on the east side of the <br /> lake for them to work together to solve their own problems. <br /> Lease: I think he is right. <br /> Karen Olson: If we fix our own systems, can we get them inspected and <br /> 12980 Ingersoll approved? <br /> Lease: They will have to meet the standards listed by our Engineer <br /> before we get Rice Creek approval. The City will be pretty <br /> strict to make sure the work is really done and the system <br /> really works. <br /> Resident: There are toilets that work by incineration. I have seen <br /> them work. <br /> Kuusisto: They do have these on the market - all these things have to <br /> be approved. <br /> Lease: The regular toilet would have to be sea led off then - it is <br /> the same thing as putting in a holding tank and then if they <br /> aren't sealed off, what is stopping you from pumping it off <br /> at night. <br /> Creager: Do you have an adequate sewer ordinance in Hugo? If not, <br /> how can we enforce anything? <br /> Smith: I think the Ordinance Committeethinks it is. <br /> Crever: You said we couldn't work together collectively. <br /> Creager: When I built my house, what were my drain fields based on? <br /> Crever: They were based on perc tests. <br /> Creager: Do you have information as to what my drain fields are? <br /> Crever: Not off the top of my head. <br /> Creager: You do have them though? <br /> Crever: Yes. <br /> Creager: What about the houses on the west side of the lake? <br /> Kuusisto: The property owners gave us the information and they could <br /> have erred. We were interested in how far their septic syster <br /> were from the lake and how many feet of drainfields they havE <br /> I only said that where they said 50 feet, we don't accept <br /> that figire as being accurate but when we found they were <br /> less than four feet from the lake level, we said they don't <br /> meet code. <br />
