He stated that locating sewer lines between homes <br />and lakes is generally not considered appropriate due to <br />potential for adverse environmental impact on the lake <br />should integrity problems arise within the sewer system. <br /> <br />Maurer explained that there is an existing sewer line along <br />Sandeen Road to which the Nelson home could connect and <br />which would provide a much better service location than the <br />existing situation. He illustrated the two alignment <br />options for connection to Sandeen Road as follows: <br /> <br />Option 1 would be a straight line approach whereby the <br />Nelson home and the Klawitter property at 3262 Sandeen <br />Road would connect to available sewer service located <br />within Sandeen Road. This option would require <br />cooperation from Nelson's adjacent neighbors, the <br />Klawitters, because the straight line configuration <br />would require crossing the Klawitter property. Without <br />cooperation from the Klawitters, this option is not <br />possible. This option is preferred by City staff, the <br />City Engineer and Nelson. <br /> <br />Option 2 (referred to as the "zig-zag" alignment) would <br />not require cooperation from any neighbors because the <br />entire alignment would lie on the Nelson property, <br />however, this alignment would include a severe bend in <br />the sewer line, which is potentially problematic and <br />difficult to maintain, therefore, not a preferred <br />option. <br />
