CITY of ORONO <br />Post Office Box 66*Crystal Bay, Minnesota 5=16 Municipal Offices <br />On th�ovembehr°�P4of 6 -innetonka <br />Thompson Lumber Company <br />3220 West Lake Street <br />Minneapolis, MN 55416 <br />Attn: Dave Ryerse <br />Re: Septic Systems for Specific Residences on Countryside Drive <br />Dear Mr. Ryerse: <br />I have been contacted by Carl Widmer of Widmer Brothers, Inc., <br />and Mimi Dennehy of Merrill Lynch Burnet Realty regarding properties <br />which Thompson Lumber now controls at 2550, 2590 and 2615 Countryside <br />Drive in Orono. Specifically, the request was to transmit all <br />information the City has regarding the septic systems, and define what <br />work on them has not yet been completed. As you are aware these <br />houses have been under construction on and off for approximately 18 <br />months. <br />On October 31, 1986, I met with Duane Ritter of Duane Ritter <br />Excavating, Inc., the subcontractor who had been hired to install the <br />septic systems for the above referenced houses. We inspected each of <br />the systems in question in order to determine what condition the <br />systems are in and what additional work is needed to make them <br />functional and acceptable to the City. <br />I will discuss each system separately for clarity's sake: <br />A) 2550 Countryside Drive <br />This system was installed in September, 1985, by Ritter under <br />permit #8036 dated 8/13/85. The system was inspected by City <br />Inspector, Lyle Oman, on September 23, 1985, and he gave Ritter the <br />go-ahead to cover the trenches and tanks, with final inspection to be <br />completed before issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy. <br />My inspection on 10/31/86 revealed the following items either <br />discrepant or remaining to be completed: <br />1. Pump is inside the pump tank, and wires have been run up to <br />the house, but a) electrical connection to the house has not been <br />made; and b) a pump failure alarm has not been installed in the <br />tank nor has a connection/alarm box been placed in the house. <br />Note: #12 wire should be for the pump, #14 wire for the alarm. <br />Ritter's agreement with Points West was that Points West would <br />subcontract out the electrical work. <br />BUILDING & 'ZONING - 473.7357 • ADMINISTRATION A FINANCE - 473.7358 • PI'HLIC WORKS - 473.7359 <br />ASSESSING <br />
