Bond in amount of $78,725.90; Voting Aye: Bolger, Locke, Bates, Lawson, Baird. Voting Nay: None. Absent: None. Motion carried. Alderman Bates requested further clarification regarding the $12,340.00 Krohn Landscaping bill. Bates noted Council had directed staff to conduct the Spring clean- ..\ up, and did not authorize the use of Krohn Landscaping Services. Director of Public Works Batt explained the clean-up services had been authorized under the provisions of the 1995-96 mowing contract and budget. Further discussion occurred. Mayor Cuda directed Clerk Althoff to provide him with a copy of the 1995-96 Krohn Landscaping contract, as well as the April 17, 1996 agenda supplement discussing Krohn's contract for 1996-97. It was the determination of Council that as the clean- up services had been completed by Krohn Landscaping, payment was in fact owed. Motion by Bates, seconded by Baird, to approve the payment to Krohn Landscaping in the amount of $12,340.00. Voting Aye: Bolger, Locke, Bates, Lawson, Baird. Voting Nay: None. Absent: None. Motion carried. Mayor Cuda reminded Council that at the beginning of the 1994 calendar year, Council determined that the second regularly scheduled meeting of each month would be utilized as a working meeting to discuss relevant issues concerning development, planning and other City related matters. EAST OF FOX RIVER SANITARY SEWER EXTENSION Carl Moon and Lyle Hammer, of the City's engineering firm Baxter &Woodman, were in attendance. Mayor Cuda explained the purpose of this evening's meeting was to review the proposed East of the River sanitary sewer extension engineering design. Easements will need to be obtained from affected property owners, all who had been invited to attend this evening's informational meeting. Carl Moon addressed all those in attendance, including representatives from the Hunterville subdivision. He noted four engineering maps had been provided delineating the proposed sewer design and the needed easements. Moon stated an attempt was made to design the sanitary extension with a majority of rear easements to minimize hook-up costs, as most of the existing septic systems are located in the rear yards of the affected properties, and to minimize the disruption of business along Route 120. The total estimated cost of the sanitary sewer extension is $3.317 million, and if water lines are to be installed at the same time, an estimated additional $2.05 million '1 would be incurred. Some discussion occurred regarding the advantages of constructing water mains concurrently with the sewer lines. Moon noted the convenience of constructing both the sewer and water lines simultaneously and monies can be saved on restoration costs, as many of the line locations will run parallel to each other. Council noted funding for the project will be financed from the sales tax revenues produced by the businesses located in this East of the River area. No costs will be incurred by existing sanitary sewer users or new property owners. May 15, 1996 Page 5 Director of Public Works Batt stated that before the project can go forward, all the required easements must be obtained. He noted once the legal descriptions are completed, easement drafts will be sent to all the affected property owners. In response to an audience inquiry, Batt explained capital development fees as well as connection fees will be charged each of the property owners upon connection to the City's sanitary sewer system. Batt further stated that Capital Development Fees are charged to provide the necessary funds for future construction and expansion of the water and sewer systems as new users come on the systems. There being no further questions from Council or the audience, Mayor Cuda called for a recess at 8:37 P.M. The meeting was reconvened with everyone still in attendance at 8:59 P.M. EXECUTIVE SESSION Motion by Lawson, seconded by Baird, to go into Executive Session to discuss Property Acquisition. Voting Aye: Bolger, Locke, Bates, Lawson, Baird. Voting Nay: None. Absent: None. �. Motion carried. Council went into Executive Session at 9:00 P.M. Motion by Bolger, seconded by Lawson, to go back into Open Session. Voting Aye: Bolger, Locke, Bates, Lawson, Baird. Voting Nay: None. Absent: None. Motion carried. Council went back into Open Session at 9:35 P.M. City Clerk Althoff invited Council to attend the employee luncheon welcoming new City Administrator Dennis Jordan on Friday, May 17, 1996 at 12:00 P.M. Althoff also reminded Council to make Fiesta Day Parade reservations with her office before July 4, 1996. Alderman Bolger and Alderman Bates requested staff provide Council within the immediate future information regarding providing sanitary sewer service to City residents living in the Lakewood area and on St. Paul Avenue. Staff acknowledged. ADJOURNMENT Motion by Bates, seconded by Lawson, to adjourn. Voting Aye: Bolger, Locke, Bates, Lawson, Baird. Voting Nay: None. Absent: None. Motion carried. The meeting adjourned at 9:40 P.M. MAYOR CITY LERK
