Yes, you are correct that once all the permits are applied for, paid, and signed off on by the City, you will be able to go ahead and connect the house to the water system and extend the sanitary sewer up to the house. You will also be able to keep the well in service for irrigation purposes, but there will need additional internal plumbing performed. There can be no connections between the well and the internal potable water supply serving the house. Your contractor will need to schedule all permit inspections with our building department to fulfill the permit requirements. There are a couple of unique issues which will have to be agreed to also. Since extending the sanitary sewer and not connecting to the home is an unique request, I will require an inspection with Public Works to verify the connection to the existing sanitary sewer stub and also where it is plugged by the house. This can be scheduled by contacting me. In Orono, homeowners own the sanitary sewer service from the house to the main. Since the existing sanitary sewer stub on Myrtlewood Rd was installed during a City project, all the stubs not connected to homes are under ownership of the City until a resident makes the connection to the house and assumes the ownership of the line. Since you are having a contractor work on the line to extend it, the ownership of the line will be transferred to you even though it is not fully connected to the house. The City cannot warrantee work performed by an outside contractor on private property. If you have additional questions or concerns, feel free to contact me directly at 952-249-4661 or at jstruve@ci.orono.mn.us<mailto:jstruve@ci.orono.mn.us>.

A few things I want to make sure of once these applications are completed, approved and paid: 1. We will be good to go ahead and connect our house to the city water. 2. We will be able to bring the city sewer up to the house, but not connect it to our house at this time. 3. We will be able to keep the well on our property active and use it for irrigation only. I have included my husband Joe Swanson and our Project Manader Ron Anderson Construction on this email. Thanks, Zoe Swanson 70 Myrtlewood Road Orono, MN 55391 ________________________________ From: jstruve@ci.orono.mn.us<mailto:jstruve@ci.orono.mn.us> To: zoe24@hotmail.com<mailto:zoe24@hotmail.com> CC: MGaffron@ci.orono.mn.us<mailto:MGaffron@ci.orono.mn.us>; SOberaigner@ci.orono.mn.us<mailto:SOberaigner@ci.orono.mn.us> Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2012 15:29:17 -0500 Subject: 20120402 70 Myrtlewood Rd Zoe, Last week we traded voice messages and spoke about questions you had regarding the sanitary sewer and water connections for your property at 70 Mrytlewood Rd. Your questions centered around connecting your property to the City water system, and stubbing out the sanitary sewer, but capping it and not connecting your property at this time. According to our records, there is a water service stub and a sanitary sewer stub to your property by the edge of the roadway. Therefore it would not be necessary for your contractor to have to dig in the street to make a connection and stub out a sanitary sewer service to your property. We can field verify the actual locations of both services. As for permits, you will need a couple. Orono Supplimental Form – Wayzata – Sewer and Water Pass through connection fees: I attached this to the email in PDF. Sewer and Water Permit: You can download off the City website at http://www.ci.orono.mn.us/vertical/Sites/%7BCBFC8FAF-C313-4854-A229-98A3482257F0%7D/uploads/Sewer__Water_Permit_-_2012_Fees_-_Updated_Surcharge_12-29-11.pdf<http://www.ci.orono.mn.us/vertical/Sites/% 7bCBFC8FAF-C313-4854-A229-98A3482257F0%7d/uploads/Sewer__Water_Permit_-_2012_Fees_-_Updated_Surcharge_12-29-11.pdf> Water Meter Form: I attached this to the email in PDF. There is a cost for the meter which will range from $313-$350 depending on size needed. This will need to be paid when the meter is picked up. Plumbing permit: Not sure if you need this or not. It will depend on what you are doing inside your house which may trigger it. You may want to talk with Lyle Oman our building official to see if you need this or not. His phone number is 952-249-4625. The form location is http://www.ci.orono.mn.us/vertical/Sites/%7BCBFC8FAF-C313-4854-A229-98A3482257F0%7D/uploads/Plumbing_Permit_-_Updated_07-28-11.pdf<http://www.ci.orono.mn.us/vertical/Sites/%7bCBFC8FAF-C313-4854-A229- 98A3482257F0%7d/uploads/Plumbing_Permit_-_Updated_07-28-11.pdf> I believe this is all the permits you may need.
