Title
Approval of Low-Pressure Sewer Mainline Extension - East Ridge Drive
Body
SUMMARY: The property owner of 3 lots along East Ridge Drive, located off Cook Road, is requesting a sewer mainline extension. Due to the topography and suspected rock, City Staff is suggesting a low-pressure line to be installed instead of gravity. The extension would be approximately 520 feet and have an estimated cost of $14,150.29. The property owner is wishing to have the line installed himself. Since the mainline extension will serve multiple properties inside the City, 100% of the cost of the extension is on the property owner(s). Per the City’s ordinance for mainline extension, a financial guarantee in the estimated amount is to be provided to the City. There will also be a Commercial Sewer Tap Fee that will be required in the amount of $1,250.00.
The Planning Commission acts in an advisory role for utility mainline extensions and recommends approval. The final approval or denial is made by City Council.
Recommended Action
NECESSARY CITY COUNCIL ACTION: Approve the sewer mainline extension
