Also present: <br /> City Administrator Benson, City Planner Olson, <br /> City Engineer Cook , City Attorney Malkerson, <br /> Chief of Police Kilbo, and City Clerk Strom. <br /> Mr. Roger Jolicoeur from the American Automobile AAA AWARD <br /> Association was present to award the AA.A Pedestrian <br /> Safety Plaque to Mayor Van Nest, who in turn presented <br /> the plaque to Chief of Police Kilbo and congratulated <br /> him for Orono' s safety record. <br /> Mayor Van Nest reopened the Public Hearing for the PUBLIC HEARING <br /> proposed sewer project for the Minnetonka Bluffs, Minnetonka Bluffs , Oronc <br /> West Ferndale Road, Orono Lane, and County Road #15 Lane , etc. Sewers <br /> areas at 7:10 P.M. <br /> Mayor Van Nest asked City Engineer Cook if the <br /> marina area could be hooked up directly to the <br /> interceptor which would lower the cost for that <br /> area. <br /> City Engineer Cook stated that he did not know if <br /> the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission would <br /> allow direct hookups. Possibly a small grinder <br /> pump would not be a problem and might be a way to <br /> handle it. <br /> Mayor Van Nest stated that one of the strong points <br /> to justify the interceptor being placed in that area <br /> was the lower cost for local _connections. He requested <br /> Mr. Cook to determine if the MWCC is going to deny <br /> us the advantages of the location of that interceptor <br /> and find out how federal funds are being administered. <br /> Mayor Van Nest informed the residents in the sewer <br /> area that a questionnaire would be mailed out to <br /> them as soon as possible which contains a map of <br /> the entire sewer area and individual plat maps showing <br /> the location of the sewer lines and approximate <br /> costs for each residence, and requested the citizens <br /> to check the proper box if they desire sewers or not. <br /> Councilmember Massengale requested that the estimate <br /> of the costs should be clarified as of todays date <br /> to prevent any misunderstanding of the meaning of <br /> the total costs, due to costs changing every day. <br /> (Continued) <br />
