Associate Plammr Geisler indicated Staff would need to review the easement document. <br /> <br />Mr. Rick indicated he would still like to see larger lots. He stated he is not opposed to change, or <br />to houses, although he prefers the corn fields, but he would like to see fewer lots. <br /> <br />Vice Chairperson Johnson asked how Mr. Rick's house would get sewer and water. He <br />wondered if a line could be run down the property line. <br /> <br />City Engineer Jankowski indicated he woUld not recommend that. He stated they do not like to <br />service properties through easements on other properties. <br /> <br />Vice Chairperson Johnson stated it seems it might be an option here because they do not know <br />where else it could come t?om. <br /> <br />Commissioner Brauer asked ifa trunk would go up Highway 47. <br /> <br />City Engineer Jan. kowski advised sewer has to follow grade, where water does not. He stated <br />they could run the water up Highway 47, but sewer would be a .different effort. He stated the <br />entire development .will flow by gravity to the low point, and 1Se transferred by lift station to <br />another main. He added they would make sure it is large enough to service other properties in <br />thc area. <br /> <br />Vice Chairperson Johnson stated it seems like this is an unique situation. He indicated if it runs <br />up Highway 47 it would be different, but they do not know if that will happen. <br /> <br />Mr. Rick indicated if you look at the property to the north there is his parcel, a swamp, the <br />nursery and a golf course. <br /> <br />John Peterson, Oakwood Land Development, indicated that sewage on their plat will flow to the <br />lift station, and will be quite deep to potentially service a larger area. He stated if there will ever <br />be sewer and water to this property to the east it will have to come from his property. He <br />indicated he does not know what the City policy is, but they would be happy to provide an <br />easement between the two comer lots. He stated Mr. Rick's lot is higher, so a gravity system <br />would work. He indicated they would be willing to provide the easement if the City wants to <br />pursue it. <br /> <br />Motion by Commissioner Levine, seconded by Commissioner Shepherd to close the public <br />hearing att 8:58 p.m. <br /> <br />Motion Carried.
