TI — SEC 10'OrlC> <br />CITY of ORONO <br />Municipal Offices <br />Street Address: Mailing Address: <br />2750 Kelley Parkway P.O. Box 66 <br />Orono, MN 55356 Crystal Bay, MN 55323.0066 <br />Re: Creekside In Orono -Municipal Utilities Status <br />Dear Dean: <br />The Creekside In Orono properly is served by a municipal sewer lateral line that is/will <br />be owned and maintained by the City of Orono and which discharges to a City of Long <br />Lake lift station. Similarly, Creekside is served by a municipal water main that is/will be <br />owned and maintained by the City of Orono but which extends from the City of Long <br />Lake water system. <br />The cost of construction of the sewer and water lines and their connections to the Long <br />Lake systems has been borne by the prior developer of Creekside, Water Street Homes. <br />According to Orono Public Works Supervisor Scott Oberaigner, the sewer and water <br />systems are physically ready for individual home connections, except that the videotape <br />of the re -televising of the sewer line to confirm it has been properly cleaned out has not <br />been submitted. This was originally done by Widmer Brothers. If that tape is not <br />submitted, the cost of re -televising would likely be $12004500. Long Lake City <br />Administrator Terry Post has copied me on his recent email to Long Lake Public Works <br />Director Main Wurzer questioning whether there is some restoration work remaining to <br />be completed at Apple Glen Road in Long Lake. I have not received a reply as of this <br />writing, but would encourage you to contact Long Lake directly do determine whether <br />there is any work they consider to be incomplete that you would be responsible for. <br />The City of Orono did not charge any sewer or water connection (local SAC/WAC) fees <br />to the original developer, and none will be due for the 7 lots in Creekside. Because the <br />sewer and water mains tie directly into the Long Lake systems, the City of Long Lake <br />charged connection fees as follows: Water Tap fee per unit $1600; Water Hookup fee per <br />unit $1100; Sewer Tap fee per unit $1500; and Sewer Hookup fee per unit $1200; for a <br />total of $5400 per unit. The original developer of Creekside (Henry Lazmarz) paid the <br />City of Long Lake for his seven lots the amount of $37,800 via check #10855 on 2-14-05. <br />A recent email fiom Terry Post confirms that all connection fees to Long Lake for this <br />development have been paid. <br />Telephone (952) 249-4600 •Fax (952) 249-4616 <br />www.ci.orono.mn.us <br />
