Orono Lane-West Ferndale was represented by five <br /> residents. Questions and comments from the residents <br /> were: <br /> (1) Why have our costs remained the same and the <br /> Minnetonka Bluffs costs have been reduced? <br /> (2) Where did the dewatering costs go? Our total cost <br /> appears to be too high. <br /> (3) We are apposed to the sewer because the City <br /> allowed homes to be constructed in areas that mandate <br /> future sewers. We do not see a fa�.r distribution <br /> of costs. The Pollution Control Agency is considering <br /> this project and we would like to wait .for their <br /> determination. <br /> (4) �an some of the sewer costs be applied to future <br /> Pollution Control Agency �grants if construction starts <br /> now?
