There are some unique circumstances which Orono has taken into account and which Woodhill does appreciate. Let me enumerate them. The bulk of the Woodhill Country Club property is in the City of Orono, but some of the improvements are in the City of Wayzata, including the main clubhouse building. There is presently a lift pump approximately 800 feet east of Orono Orchard Road. The present users of the sewer system have paid for the pump. The intention of Orono is that if this pump has to be upgraded to accommodate new users in addition to Woodhill, then such new users and Woodhill would bear the expense of the upgrade on a fair basis and the old users would not have to pay for the upgrade. Woodhill anticipates that the installation of the private sewer line from the clubhouse to Russell Avenue will cost about $250,000, which Woodhill will pay entirely. The understanding is that if other users come onto the line at any time, whether before or after Orono takes over the line (if Orono ever does), Woodhill will be entitled to fair contribution from such new users. Woodhill agrees that the sewer line will be a private line but that Woodhill will contract with Orono to maintain the line at Woodhill's cost.
