50 June 6, 1983
concern was whattte!ffect of allowing Mr. Shackle to construct a residence with an on-site
septic system would have on the City of Hugo/Charpentier agreement. Would the city
allow Charpentier's to develop their property further? McAllister stated that the
agreement was entered into because of the sale of property to the Charpentier's
by Fred Fulbright. Mr. Fulbright was informed that no more development could occur
without benefit of city sewer. It was the concensus of the City Council that
before any more homes are allowed on this property that it will be served by Sani-
tary sewer. Sanitary sewer improvement could be considered upon petition of 35%
of the property owners or 4/5's of the Council to vote in the affirmative to initiate
an improvement project. It was the concensus of the Council that they would not
authorize/initiate a sanitary sewer improvement project for that property. Mayor
