<br />MRS. BEHR: I just want <br />$10,000 addition onto ours. <br />for the street alone. <br /> <br />to go on record - don't throw that <br />We're already being taxed $14,000 <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: Was that property developable before? <br /> <br />MR. CHRISTOFFERSEN: Yes, it was. It's a developable <br />piece of property, as far as services. <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: Did it have services prior to this? <br /> <br />MR. CHRISTOFFERSEN: No, it did not. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />MAYOR WOODBURN: Did it have any road (inaudible). <br /> <br />MR. CHRISTOFFERSEN: No, it did not - only what's on lot <br /> <br />19. <br /> <br />MR. WILLIAM BEHR: Who do I contact to come and take care <br />of water in my basement? It wasn't there before all this <br />development started. ~ would like a little action on this <br />one way or another. The water is in the basement as of <br />tonight and I've talked since the last rain to the engineer <br />and they said well, we'll see, and that's it. All I'm <br />asking is who do I contact? Do I have to go to an attorney <br />or what? <br /> <br />MR. CHRISTOFFERSEN: I visited with Mr. Behr on the <br />project to explain what the project consisted of and that <br />there would be grading along the edges, maybe even encroaching <br />somewhat on his property. We indicated to him that although <br />it hasn't been done yet, the property would be graded and <br />sodded in the area and also seeded behind where the dirt has <br />been placed. It would be regraded down to grade. I believe <br />most of it is in the boulevard area - there may be some on <br />his property. He did mention to me the water in his basement. <br />This was probably a month and a half ago that we met with him <br />(inaudible) the wet season that we've been having. He is <br />somewhat on top of a hill, although at one time (inaudible) <br />it's difficult to tell why he's having water in his basement. <br />This is somewhat on top of a hill also - this marshland - <br />and the water is percolating through the soil into his base- <br />ment. I really don't see how the project itself has added to <br />it because the project is well (inaudible). As a matter of <br />fact, I think the project is going to improve it because it <br />will remove some of the ponded water from the area. As far <br />as his having water in the basement - I would assume that <br />there are many homes in Arden Hills that have water in the <br />basement this year because of the wet weather we've had. <br /> <br />MR. BEHR: <br />year. <br /> <br />(Inaudible) since this project started this <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />MR. CHRISTOFFERSEN: You're right - you probably had it <br />this year because this has been one of the wettest years <br />we've experienced. <br /> <br />-14- <br />
