Chairperson Riley stated he gets the northern and western loops but loop #5 by the Boy Scout <br />camp goes into an existing neighborhood. <br /> <br />City Engineer Westby stated that is a good question, noting it comes off the 12-inch line down <br />Highway 47. He stated the intent is to make loop connections where they do not exist in the <br />MUSA. He stated he will get clarification. <br /> <br />Chairperson Riley stated loop #3 that goes down Sunfish Lake Boulevard is already a loop. <br /> <br />City Engineer Westby stated it has been in the CIP for several decades but he is not sure what is <br />driving it. <br /> <br />Councilmember Johns asked if relates to different watershed districts. <br /> <br />City Engineer Westby stated it may be a service area consideration but he is not sure why it is <br />proposed so he will ask and get a response. <br /> <br />Public Works Superintendent Riemer stated it may be to close the loop and equalize the water <br />pressure. <br /> <br />Councilmember Shryock stated with Brookfield and other areas, the City did not want a long <br />dead-end loop but loops #4 and #5 are not connecting to anything right now. She asked why the <br />City would create more stubs instead of creating loops and asked staff to assure more dead ends <br />stubs are not created. <br /> <br />Chairperson Riley stated he finds this plan to be much better than the 2012 Plan that was already <br /> <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Johns, seconded by Councilmember Shryock, to recommend that the <br />City Council approve of the September 2017 Comprehensive Water System Study Update and <br />ask staff to address the questions raised relating to dead end stubs. <br /> <br />Motion carried. Voting Yes: Chairperson Riley, Councilmembers Johns and Shryock.
