City of Centerville Council Meeting Minutes August 27,2014 3. Approve Revised Change Order #1 2014 Royal Meadows Watermain Improvement Project(Org. Approved 5/28/2014) Administrator Larson stated that the change order was previously approved and with the new modifications,it is being slightly decreased ($2,000) due to unit price changes. Motion by Council Member Fehrenbacher, seconded by Council Member Paar to approve the Revised Change Order #1 — Royal Meadows Watermain Improvement Proiect as presented. All in favor. Motion passed. IX. NEW BUSINESS 1. Request from Mr. William Bowen for Consideration of Extra Costs Incurred Due to Watermain Lacked Service Line Stub Administrator Larson stated that at the time of watermain installation and road reconstruction in 2007, there was a lack of a stub for connection to Mr. Bowen's property located at 7397 Old Mill Road and that Mr. Bowen is required to connect his home to municipal water if available by December 31, 2017. Administrator Larson stated that Mr. Bowen is interested in connection and has received a bid for the project, however, his bid included the stub that should have been installed at the time of the 2007 project but was not and Mr. Bowen is requesting that the City consider paying for the stub as it should have been installed similar to others with the project. Mr. Palzer and Administrator Larson both felt that the Engineer likely assumed that due to the size of the lot at some point it would be developed into several lots and one stub would not be sufficient. Consensus of Council was that Mr. Bowen should have received a stub at the time of the original project similar to others in the area and that he should be made whole. Administrator Larson advised caution due to other areas where the same issues could arise and that this situation was different due to the close proximity to the roadway. Discussion was had regarding existing pipe size and ability to service additional parcels, error during construction, potential for connection to hydrant line, Engineer's opinion whether bid was accurate, and alternative options. Motion by Council Member Love, seconded by Council Member Paar to authorize Administrator Larson and Engineer Mann to research options for connection that may be more cost effective but to provide the resident with the necessary stub in an amount not to exceed$5,676.99. All in favor. Motion passed. 2. Consider Short-Term Lease of Old Public Works Site—7087—20th Avenue South Previously discussed. 3. Appointment to the Planning&Zoning Commission Page 5 of 7 5
