This case was intended to be on the May Public Works agenda, but was not included because of limited time. There was also a resident present who indicated his opposition to a change in the speed limit. The Public Works Committee directed that a case be prepared for the June 17, 2003 Public Works Committee, and that all properties within 350 feet of Tiger Street be notified. Action: Motion to ratify the recommendation of the Public Works Committee. Case # 1 Consider Sewer and water Trunk Charges Associated with Alpine Acres Subdivision Background: City Engineer Jankowski explained to the Committee the City has had a policy of collecting sewer and water trunk charges since the time that utilities were installed' in the mid 1980's. The expenditures of trunk funds are subject to significantly exceed the revenues for this development, and in addition, there was a special trunk agreement on this parcel of land from a previous proposed development. The details of the trunk element costs were discussed. The Committee recommended that (1) The City pay for the construction cost of extending the sanitary sewer north to Alpine Drive ($150,000) (2) That the city pay for the difference between the previous trunk estimate and the current trunk estimate ($817,780 - $657,789 = $159,991) (3) That the Developer will be reimbursed any trunk charges collected by the city for any development within the "triangle" bounded by CR 57, CSAH 5, and Alpine Drive that occurs through January 1, 2010. Council Action: Ratify the recommendation of the Public Works Committee. 15 -333-
