�s <br /> City Council IA <br /> City of Centerville, MN <br /> We have been Centerville residents for over 35 years ( in a home built in 1958) <br /> and witnessed significant population change and building code requirements. <br /> Health issues now require us to move to maintenance free housing. <br /> Over a year ago we attended informational meetings regarding the restructure of <br /> Centerville Rd and that water and sewer would be extended down Centerville Rd. <br /> This was the news we needed to start our search for a handicap accessible home. <br /> We watched the city council meeting where (on the advice of the City <br /> Administrator) the council voted not to proceed with this planned service <br /> extension. We were devastated! This has created a hardship for us as we are <br /> already under way with building a new home. <br /> Since we need to proceed anyway, we hired a sewer inspector and got the news <br /> that (although it works fine for us) our septic system is failing. How great is that! <br /> With the new requirements the layout of our property does not meet the new <br /> requirement needed for a mound septic system. <br /> If, as the letter from the city stated, no extension of city services will happen until <br /> the Vickers farm is developed that could be a very longtime. Also, there is no <br /> guarantee that the services would not be brought in from Dupre road leaving the <br /> residents south of Dupree in a no man's land. We were forgotten when the <br /> Wilharber farm was developed and feel it could certainly happen again. <br /> At the suggestion of the City Administrator, we are requesting that the city <br /> reconsider the extension of service, or figure out how we could connect to the <br /> services that are within 150 feet of our home. <br /> Sincerely <br /> 76 <br />
