COi iwnn MPI=T>NG MAR 2 2 m CITY OF OHONO REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION DATE: March 22, 1999 ITEM NO.: Department Approval: Name Gregory A. Gappa Title Director of Public Services Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: Engineer's Report Item Description: Easement for Baldur Park Peninsula Sanitary Sewer Extension At the request of Mr. Fred Puzak on March 8th, the City Council ordered the preparation of a feasibility study for an assessment sanitary sewer project to serve the end of the Baldur Park peninsula. Mr. Puzak lives at the end of the Baldur Park peninsula. Completion of this project will require that the City obtain a utility easement across Mr. William Franklin's proper^. Both, Mr. Puzak and the City of Orono have been unsuccessful in numerous attempts to contact the adjoining property owner, Mr. Bill Franklin regarding this project. He was notified of the Council action ordering a feasibility study, and we have not received any response from him on this issue. Mr. Puzak needs to replace his nonconforming and poorly functioning septic system as soon as possible. To avoid any delays with this project, staff is recommending that we begin the easement acquisition process, so it can run concurrently with the assessment process. I have attached a letter outlining the proposed easement acquisition process that we would like to send to Mr. Franklin. The Council net^s to review this proposed process, compensation, and time schedule for easement acquisition and provide staff with comments regarding this issue. We are requesting Council concurrence with the recommended plan before Mr. Franklin is contacted. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: Approval of the recommended plan for obtaining an easement for the Baldur Park peninsula sanitary sewer extension project and authorization for staff to send letter to property owner regarding obtaining an easement for this project
