'i <br />r. <br />;: <br />h: <br />MINUTES OF THE STUBIS BAY BIWIN MIAB2NQ “ NOVIMBIN 20i 1B9I <br />Jim Brownl66t 250 Cygnet Place, asked how many systems are <br />falling on Cygnet Place. He noted that he recently constructed a <br />mound system because of a falling system, and at that time was <br />under the opinion that his was the only falling system. <br />Qaffron explained that on Cygnet Place about 40-50% of the <br />sys^^ns have been replaced In the past 14 years, many with mound <br />systems. He noted that In some cases this leaves no alternative <br />site. Me noted the soils In that area are also wet, and <br />suggested It Is prudent for the City to prr./lde a trunk line for <br />the future use of the neighborhood. <br />Provo noted his house Is for sale, and wanted to know to do so, <br />should an alternate site be provided. He felt that he should not <br />have to pay for future needs with his retirement egulty. <br />Mayor Peterson noted there Is a deferral option for senior <br />citizens, which Is available until the house Is sold. <br />Provo noted that he had counted on this ^ney for retirement. <br />Behrman asked If the City has a record of those properties with <br />falling systems. <br />Qaffron noted the report has been updated to Include properties <br />on Leaf Street and Cygnet Place. He noted that on paper Cygnet <br />Place Is not In as much trouble as other areas. However, the <br />pQ05 not add'*ess all Issues which affect the septic <br />system, so other facti s could be Involved. <br />0, Peterson noted that even though Oxford and Cygnet were <br />originally not Included, the City needs to look at what point <br />those systems will fall and they will need sewer provided. <br />Crane noted that he would rather participate In the project but <br />objected to the cost. He felt It Is Important for the Council to <br />look at Individual property Issues, and offer an opportunity to <br />elect out of the project If criteria Is met. He felt that the <br />Council needs to come up with some method to have all properties <br />Included for the benefit of the lake and Orono citizens. <br />Mayor Peterson closed the public hearing at 10:30 p.m. <br />It was moved by Mayor Peterson, seconded by Butler, to order <br />plans and specifications and bids to be drafted by the City <br />Engineer for the Stubbs Bay Sewer Project.
