MINUTES OF THE STUBBS BAY SEWER HEARING — NOVEMBER 20, 1991 <br />Mayor Peterson suggested she call.the City Administrator for <br />information on this question. She called for questions from the <br />Bayside East area. <br />Susan Hillman, 400 Leaf Street, noted she lives by the new <br />development and stated they have already experienced additional <br />water problems because of that development. She noted they are <br />on a holding tank which they pump every 3 weeks. . She would <br />prefer to have the sewer installed as opposed to installing a <br />mound system. <br />Jane Behrman, 340 Leaf Street, pointed out a petition which she <br />submitted noting 10 of out 12 residents opposing the sewer. She <br />felt the money is the biggest issue. <br />Sue Nyhammer, 3280 Bayside Road, noted they just bought their <br />home and cannot afford to do any improvements with increased <br />assessments. She stated part of the reason they bought their <br />home was because of the trees and wished to keep those. <br />Don Boylan, 3240 Bayside Road, noted he is generally in favor of <br />the project. He noted that because of a potential sale of his <br />property, the financial aspect is a big issue for him. He stated <br />that when the Oxford development went in, during the digging of <br />the basements they were filled with water. <br />Behrman noted that if the project is commenced, there needs to be <br />some leeway as to when properties need to be connected. <br />Mayor Peterson invited questions from the Cygnet Place area. <br />Bob Provo, 220 Cygnet Place, noted that the estimate for Cygnet <br />Place is the highest of all and it is obvious to him that Cygnet <br />Place was thrown in at the last minute to help defray costs for <br />everyone else. He noted that Cygnet Place was just repaved last <br />year and it would be a waste to dig it up to put in the sewer. <br />Gene Deterling noted that even if the sewer were free he would be <br />opposed because it destroys the rural atmosphere of the area and <br />encourages further development. He stated that in New England <br />there are homes that are on septic systems for hundreds of years <br />with no problem. <br />Goetten reiterated that if sewer is installed, there would be no <br />rezoning of the area. <br />Mrs. Deterling asked how a unit is defined. <br />Cook explained that it is a house on acreage. <br />Pat Crane, 295 Leaf Street, asked if the gentleman with 10 acres <br />would be assessed 5 units because it is in 2 acre zoning. <br />13 <br />
