I know you cited a lot of villages like Hopkins; <br /> Fridley, Brooklyn Center. Their problema are a lot different. <br /> I suppose you might even go~ the Village of New Brighton and say <br /> how do we compare to New Brighton. In New Brighton they're paying $7.50 <br /> per front foot plus something on general taxeS plus $70.00 extra <br /> for a service charge run OUt to your property line. I have talked <br /> to many engineers and they said with the problems we have in our <br /> village that's what we're faced with. We're either goingte live up <br /> to them or d~ withcut them. There's nc simple way of doing these <br /> thing s . Water just doesn't flow up hill. You have to put in lift <br /> statiens.

WILLIAM BANISTER, ~nister Engineering Company: I'm <br /> Mr. Banister, one of the partners of the Banister Engineering Company. <br /> I~ the first place, we have nothing te do with the building of the <br /> sewer s . w. design it and de not build it. To call in different. <br /> engineers. we dcn't do this work for nothing. We have made this <br /> preliminary study and have been paid for it. As far as OUr position <br /> is concerned, we act. I think I might clarify it for you - we act <br /> . in the same position as you would expect an architect to act fer you <br /> if you had an architect design your hcuse. And if you called in <br /> ether engineers, you would have to pay each one to make an independent <br />
