The total project cost will be <br />$242,430 divided between 11 units at a cost of $21,000 per unit including the grinder <br />pump. Gappa explained that there are 9 properties in the Fox Ridge expansion area. Ten <br />properties along South Brown Road were offered sewer and 2 property owners opted to <br />connect to the sewer. He reminded people that the hearing was their last chance to appeal <br />the assessment. <br />Dave Phelps of 1950 Fox Ridge Road asked when property owners need to decide <br />whether or not to take the $5,000 assessment for the grinder pump. Gappa stated they <br />should decide in October when the City sends out notices for the prepay period. <br />Bonnie Ease of 15 South Brown Road asked why the assessment has gone up since the <br />public hearing. Gappa explained that at that time, they were not sure how many units <br />along South Brown Road would join the sewer so they estimated 3 would join. Only 2 <br />joined so the total cost was divided among 11 units instead of 12. Ease asked if the cost <br />would decrease if more people joined later. Mayor Jabbour stated that if more people <br />sign up, they will not be able to continue with the project because every unit that hooks <br />up to the Long Lake sewer takes a unit away from Long Lake and there is a finite number <br />of units that can connect to the sewer. <br />Adrian Kiemey of 265 South Brown Road asked where the hook up would enter his lot. <br />Gappa explained that they would work with each property owner to place their hook up. <br />Mayor Jabbour closed the assessment hearing at 7:20. <br />A.Sansevere moved, and Peterson seconded, to approve Resolution No. 4493 <br />adopting the Fox Ridge Area sanitary sewer improvements assessment roll. <br />Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0.
