Public Hearing <br /> Page 2 <br /> September 25, 1978 <br /> <br />City Engineer Raatikka stated that it is standard for the contractor to <br />restore the area to its original condition. <br /> <br />Mr. Danske asked if the water is to drain to Highway 10 how deep will <br />the ditch be. <br /> <br />City Engineer Raatikka said it would be left roughly the way it is~ <br /> <br />Mr. Dunske then stated the water will then have to run uphill. <br /> <br />Mr. Dunske asked if they would require culverts for driveways. <br /> <br />City Engineer Raatikka said that with the Suburban Section Street pro- <br />posed it would eliminate the ditches and there would be no need for culverts~ <br /> <br />Mr. George Gauer asked about water draining onto someones property. <br /> <br />City Engineer Raatikka said they would first check and then obtain drain- <br />age easements. <br /> <br />Mr. Bob Ahlman asked if it is really necessary to have gutters that wouldn't <br />it run off on each side? <br /> <br />City Engineer Raatikka said it could. <br /> <br />Mr. Warren Rumsch said that after a severe rain the soil does become satu- <br />rated as the water does stand for a couple of days. Could they bank the <br />road in front of Terpstras so the water can drain away? <br /> <br />Mrs. Jane Terpstra asked about the 1½ inches of bituminous and if heavy <br />trucks break up the road is it the homeowners responsibility for upkeep? <br /> <br />Mr. Ed Irvine asked that because the tip of his property touches the cul de <br />sac, would he still be responsible for paying even though he would not <br />benefit from the improvement. <br /> <br />City Engineer Raatikka told him that he is abutting on the affected street <br />and he would be responsible. <br /> <br />Mayor Cox read a letter from Mr. Wadsworth, a non-resident owner, who was <br />opposed to the project. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilman Reimann and seconded by Councilman Muller to adjourn <br />the public hearing. <br /> <br />Meeting~ adjourned 8:30. <br /> <br />5 ayes <br />Motion carried <br /> <br /> <br />
