ITEM 6.2. TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: STEPHEN ROHLF, B & Z ADMINISTRATOR DATE: MARCH 10, 1993 5~ SUBJECT: PETITION FOR EXTENSION OF TRUNK SEWER AND WATER TO THE VIRGINIA BARNIER PROPERTY Staff is in receipt of a petition from Virgina Barnier, property owner, and Dennis Backes, developer, to have the City consider an extension of trunk sewer and water lines from their present location north of Meadowva1e School, westerly to facilitate the platting of Mrs. Barnier's property. There is a map attached to this memo showing this proposed extension. . If the City Council accepts this petition, the City Engineer will prepare a feasibility study. Typically, a feasibility study is not prepared until the City Council has considered preliminary plat so there is some assurance lot design is not changed by Council action. In this case, Mr. Backes is proposing to do the public improvements internal to the plat without City funding. The City project petitioned for only includes the extension of trunk sewer and water lines to Mrs. Barnier's property. Staff feels this petition is not premature and the Council can act on it. If this petition is accepted, staff would hope to present the feasibility study to the City Council at the April 19, 1993, meeting, which would be the same meeting the preliminary plat for Mrs. Barnier's property would be reviewed. Staff recommends the Council accepts the petition and orders a feasibility study with the stipulation that the developer escrow with the City an amount determined by the City Engineer to be sufficient to cover the cost of the preparation of the feasibility study. Terry Maurer, City Engineer, will be at the Monday night meeting to address any questions you may have. . 720 Dodge Avenue N.W., Elk River, Minnesota 55330 (612) 441-7420
