i: W- K.- h ifp:-V- !■ ■ V !■ r-V-i^k NINUTII OF THI STUMS SAY SEWER HEARING - NOVEMBER 20. 1991 look closely at the criteria for being Involved In the project. He wanted the lateral to be run down the street to avoid tree loss. Cook noted that could be done. Klltzke noted that all Oxford residents oppose the project. He ^here was no need to fix a problem that doesn t exist. He felt that those not meeting the restrictions of the ordinance should be forced to do so. Goetten noted that the City has hired a septic Inspector who will be Involved with these Issues. She noted the City does follow up on complaints by neighbors regarding septic problems. Klltzke felt that was good and the citizens needed that kind of support. He noted the long-term fix can be expensive. Jabbour explained that Oxford Road and Cygnet Place came In at the end of the study, and he would need further clarification from staff that the areas need sewer before he would vote for it In those areas. Goetten noted that Oxford Road was Included because the lots are on lakeshore. She too concurred with Jabbour regarding the need for sewer In this area. Arnie Robins, 3211 Bayside Road, agreed with the Oxford Road residents. He noted that he has a 3-year old house and wanted to know why Fox Bend plat and the church weren't Included. Goetten explained the Council has considered criteria for Incluslon/excluslon. Ter1 Robins felt that Fox Bend should be assessed for possible future hookup. Butler noted they won't get the benefit of the project. Robins noted that because they were putting In miles of pipe, they may as well benefit and they should have to pay. Jabbour noted he had a hard time requiring a new development that has been required to provide for primary and alternate testing to also be required to hook up to sewer. He noted that If they are to hook up at a later date, they will have to pay for It at that time. Klltzke noted that about 40 homes will not Increase In value the amount of the assessment, and this concern needs to be addressed. H* felt that the Council needs to decide how to finance the project and doesn't feel that how it was done In the past Is necessarily the best way to go about It now. T. Robins asked what outside funds have been looked at. > • rnjmr t ^ i
