Box 66 Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323.0066 February 10, 2009 Notice of Public Hearing on Myrtlewood Neighborhood and 850 and 875 Wayzata Boulevard West Sanitary Sewer and Water Main Improvement Project Dear Myrtlewood Neighborhood Residents, Notice is hereby given that the Orono City Council will meet in the Council Chambers, 2780 Kelley Parkway, at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, February 23, 2009 to consider a sanitary sewer and water main project for the Myrtlewood Neighborhood pursuant to Minn. Stat. 429.011 to 429.111. Such persons as desire to be heard with reference to the proposed improvement will be heard at this meeting, or written comments may also be submitted to the City. This would be an assessment project with all of the project costs assessed to the neighborhood residents. The City received petitions from 9 of the 10 Myrtlewood property owners on April 3, 2008. A summary of the petitions indicates that 9 property owners were in favor of the sewer project and 5 property owners were in favor of the water project. A Feasibility Study has been completed for this project, and a pressure sanitary sewer system is being proposed in which each property owner will be responsible for the installation, maintenance, and operation of their own grinder pump station. Previous analysis showed that a gravity sewer system to serve this neighborhood was not feasible. The feasibility study reflected the inclusion of 10 properties on Myrtlewood Road. In addition, the Study looked at providing municipal water to the 10 Myrtlewood properties. The total estimated project cost for the sanitary sewer and water project is $185,000. The estimated cost per parcel for sanitary sewer is $8,500, which includes the sewer line in the street and a service stub at the edge of the street Right of Way. The estimated cost per parcel for the water system is $10,000, which includes a water main in the street and a service stub at the edge of the street Right of Way. For the sanitary sewer system, the per parcel cost does not include the cost of installing the grinder pump station, installing the service connection from the sewer stub to the grinder pump station, or abandoning the septic system. For the water system, the estimated cost does not include any costs for the installation of the service line between the Right of Way and the home, plumbing costs or, if necessary, abandoning existing wells.
