City of Centerville <br />Council Meeting Minutes <br />May 14, 2014 <br />Legal Counsel Glaser requested that this item be tabled due to additional review and possible <br />modification by the Executive Committee. <br /> <br />Motion by Council Member Love, seconded by Council Member Paar to Table the Anoka <br />County Fire Protection Council Joint Powers Agreement until May 28, 2014. All in favor. <br />Motion passed. <br /> <br /> <br />2. Centerville Road - Utilities <br /> <br />Administrator Larson stated that Anoka County is waiting for the City to determine whether they <br />desire to provide municipal water and sewer with the project prior to receiving bids. <br />Administrator Larson stated that four (4) property owners are interested in having the services <br />available but only two (2) desired to connect right away. Discussion ensued regarding the <br />potential for development in the areas where individuals have more than one lot, future <br />development of the Vickers property, benefits of installation being anticipated costs of $200,000, <br />which includes all costs associated with Engineering and in the future it would be more, healthy <br />sewer and water enterprise funds, ability to be reimbursed by a developer associated with the <br />Vickers property, the need for individual property owners to install/repair existing equipment if <br />there were failure and costs associated with restoration would not be incurred due to the <br />construction of the roadway. It was also noted that one of the property owners complained that <br />he had been unable to sell his property because it is not served by municipal sewer and water. <br /> <br />Lengthy discussion ensued regarding the Vickers property, its current designation of Green <br />Acres, potential for increased market value/property taxes, removal of the existing home if/when <br />development occurs and bypassing that property with stubs until such time as it is developed. <br /> <br />Engineer Statz stated that one home’s basement would have to be served by a pump versus the <br />first floor of the same building being served by gravity and all others along the roadway being <br />serviced by gravity feed. <br /> <br />Engineer Statz also stated that the watermain would be installed on the east side of the roadway <br />and run under the roadway to service those properties on the west side. Administrator Larson <br />felt that with the presence services in the roadway there would be potential for phasing the <br />development of the Vickers property and new development along the roadway. <br /> <br />Lengthy discussion ensued regarding budget reserves, “healthy balances”, connection fees from <br />those interested and future development (cost recoupment), two other areas of town that lack <br />services, and clarification of that this part of the project is mill, reclaim, and pave of the existing <br />roadway and addition of a 4’ shoulder and concerns for future bonding for funds. <br /> <br />Motion by Council Member Paar, seconded by Council Member Love to authorize Staff to <br />Include Utility (Sewer/Water) services in Anoka County’s Road Reconstruction Bid <br />Process. All in favor. Motion passed. <br /> <br /> <br />IX. NEW BUSINESS <br /> <br />Page 4 of 7 <br /> <br /> <br />
