MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br />MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY % 1998 <br />(Ul - Edgewood Hills Improvement Project - Continued) <br />Jabbour asked if the home orientations were positive in relation to the sewer location. <br />Kellogg said that in most cases the sewer line comes out to the back or to one side of the <br />residence. <br />Kellogg reported that the cost for the directionally bored option within 20' of the service <br />results in an assessment of $21,140 for each of the 8 properties. <br />Jabbour noted that a separate assessment hearing would be scheduled. Cusick asked <br />about finance plans. Jabbour indicated that the City’s high bond rating allows for the City <br />to receive a good interest rate. He did note that the project would be included with <br />another project to keep costs down. There are some administrative costs involved. The <br />assessments would be paid over a 15 year period. Goetten noted that the cost could also <br />be paid upfront if the residents so choose. <br />Jm Nielson, 340 North Arm Lane, asked if there would be any problem in transitioning <br />the additional lift to the roadway from the driveways. Kellogg said the 1-1/2" lift would <br />be tr^sitioned back on the driveway and would be smooth. Kellogg informed Nielson <br />that the hole dug for the sewer would be 16-18' deep.
