to eliminate that pumping station; bring it by gravity along Old Highway 10 and along the vicinity (not exactly located but schematically) located in a westerly direction, just north of the freeway, around by the railroad crossing and cross over into New Brighton. The Metropolitan Interceptor is proposed to be extended from somewhere by the railroad bridge to the west of 35W; there's a large New Brighton interceptor at that point; Metropolitan Sewer Board proposes to extend that interceptor over to Arden Hills so this connection can be made, that has not been done at this time. The Metropolitan Sewer Commission proposes to do that as soon as Arden Hills gets this particular program under way. There is a need for it because there are problems with the downstream flows. We are talking about constructing an IS" sanitary sewer deep enough to eliminate that particular lift station. ~ I have two schematic alternatives; showing where there might be benefitted property. This drawing illustrates an alignment extending the sewer south on Old 10, then extending west along the north side of 1-694 and back up into New Brighton; the dotted area is what we are showing as front footage assessment which is set back 200'; beyond the 200' would be an area assessment. This dotted area would not be charged on an area basis, just a front foot basis. This area has been assessed before, in fact, portions of all of this area have been assessed. This area has been assessed for a previous improvement for a frontage and an acreage; some of these properties have been charged acreage in the back. There is a consideration to have assessment on acreage for the unsewered areas. The unsewered areas, on an acreage basis, I have outlined - the dashed outline there may be some additional areas of area assessment back in this location. It depends on what is desired as far as extension of area improvement. This is just another illustration, changing the alignment of the sewer slightly on the easterly end, rather that coming clear down to the north side of the freeway. There is a property line about mid-way between the lift station and the freeway; placing the sewer next to the existing water; if placed in this location, it would be double-sided frontage (200' on one side and 200' on the other times the length). From that point it would probably still drop back to this lower area along the freeway. This particular project is expensive by itself and maybe exceeds benefits; of course that would have to be determined. It's an IS" sanitary sewer trunk line. I mentioned it is rather deep. In the location where it is extremely deep, rather than have the abutting property owners have to dig down 40't to get into the sewer we would put manholes in strategic locations and put drop sections in the manholes; so, you would not have to dig quite as deep to make a connection. Your honor, I believe that completes my portion of the presentation. 2 .
