AGENDA ITEM Prepared By: Reviewed By: DJR Approved By: DJR 1. Purpose. The purpose of this action item is to get Council approval to extending a sewer main to service 1000 Brown Road and waive of sewer connection fees. 2. Background. The property owner at 1000 Brown Road has requested sewer service be extended to service the property. The property’s does not have adequate septic sites. The property is in the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA). The nearest city sewer main is a gravity main on the south end of Willow Drive. 3. Sewer Connection Fee. Per the City Fee Schedule the sewer connection fee is $5,380.00. The estimated cost for the sewer main extension is $20,600.00. In light of the cost to extend the main exceeding the connection fee cost the homeowner requests the City waive the connection fee. 4. Funding. All cost associated with the construction of the sewer and service line will be paid by the resident. Upon completion and acceptance by the City, ongoing maintenance of the sewer main portion of the project will be the City’s responsibility. 6. Way Forward. If the council approves of the project the follow steps would follow: • The resident will acquire the necessary permits Permit process (MPCA, MCES, MCWD, Hennepin County) • The City will complete the design review • The resident will construct the sewer main and service line. • The City will inspect and then accept the sewer main. 7. Staff Recommendation. After consideration of the proposed project, it is my recommendation to approve the sewer extension and to waive the connection fees. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: Consider a motion to approve the sewer extensions and to waive the connection fees. Exhibits A. Location map showing sewer extension.
