Special City Council Meeting Page 2 <br /> June 15, 1993 <br /> • Stan Chase, 16800 Highway 10, questioned the method of notification of the <br /> meeting and commented on the poor turnout. Terry Maurer stated that 35 <br /> notices went out to highway/commercial and light industrial property owners <br /> along Highway 10 to 170th Avenue. He further indicated that a notice was <br /> published in the Elk River Star News. <br /> Ron Ebner, Ebner's Bait, stated he was opposed to sewer and water extension <br /> as he has no use for the utilities. He indicated he has just updated his <br /> septic system. He further stated that his son and daughter are opposed to <br /> the extension of utilities. <br /> Kenny Dehn, Dehn's Four Seasons, submitted a letter to the Council stating <br /> his opposition to the extension of utilities. <br /> Mr. Ebner informed the Council that Keith Johnson had informed him that he <br /> was also opposed to the extension of utilities. <br /> Charlie Houle, 17069 Highway 10, stated he was interested in the extension <br /> of utilities along Highway 10, however, he had some questions relating to <br /> cost of assessments and number of years to repay the assessment. He further <br /> questioned whether the extension of utilities would raise the value of his <br /> property. He requested City staff to put together cost scenarios which <br /> would provide the property owners with a better understanding of what a <br /> project like this would cost each property owner individually. <br /> • John Plaisted, 12750 182nd Avenue, stated he was in favor of the extension <br /> of utilities along East Highway 10. He stated that the AmericInn needed <br /> water when it was built and, therefore, had to build a swimming pool to <br /> supply the water for the sprinkler system. He further stated that he has <br /> had requests from restaurants to locate in the area, but have been unable to <br /> due to the lack of utilities. He stated that a health club was also unable <br /> to locate in the area because of the lack of utilities. Mr. Plaisted <br /> indicated that the lack of utilities along East Highway 10 is a detriment to <br /> the area. He further stated that the requirement of sprinkling large <br /> buildings makes it very difficult to develop the area without sewer and <br /> water. <br /> Doris Specht, 16330 Highway 10, questioned what the extension of utilities <br /> would do to her farm. She indicated she is opposed as she is not ready to <br /> develop her property. <br /> Scott Powell, Elk River Ford/Chrysler, indicated that he is interested in <br /> the extension of utilities as he feels the East Highway 10 area is a prime <br /> area for development. He also indicated he would be interested in receiving <br /> an estimate of the cost. <br /> Truman Moyer, 16807 Highway 10, stated he was opposed to the extension of <br /> utilities. He stated there is no interest in the area. Mr. Moyer is a <br /> residential home owner in the area. <br /> • Tom Price, 17533 Highway 10, stated that he is in favor of extending the <br /> utilities as soon as possible as the cost will only increase with time. He <br /> further stated that the property in this area will develop and there will be <br /> a need for utilities. <br />
