Council discussed a request from Gordon Sevig for the reimbursement of utility extensions in East
Cemetery Road to the Prairie View Heights subdivision. Ransom reported that the sanitary sewer
reimbursement was consistent with past practices of the City so as to help pay for the additional cost for
the increase in pipe size, in that, it will also serve areas other than just the area owned by the developer.
He suggested that the City split the cost of the water main extension, as this extension will also benefit
the City. He also suggested that the City pay for the 2 hydrants, which do not provide any direct benefit
to the Subdivision. These items will be considered at the next regularly scheduled meeting.
There being no further business, Wainwright moved adjournment at 8:25 PM, seconded by Magers.
All in favor.
MAYOR: Bill Voss
