<br />City Council Meeting Minutes <br />June 13,2001 <br /> <br />construction and the manhole cover is underwater. Mayor Swedberg stated that Mr. <br />Vanderbeek had indicated a concern for drainage behind his property. <br /> <br />Mr. Wilharber indicated there were some properties along Centerville Road that were <br />unable to be assessed due to side-yard frontage, which increased the costs for others. <br /> <br />Mr. Wilharber indicated that the developer cannot put more water on your property than <br />is already there. He then indicated that there were ponds behind his property and that he <br />was concerned that the ponds would become larger. Mr. Hannah has indicated no <br />additional water would be put on his property. <br /> <br />Mr. Wilharber indicated that the ditch behind Mr. Vanderbeek's house is not a County <br />ditch but was created by farmers who worked together to create a series of ditches to <br />drain their properties out to Centerville Lake. He then indicated that the only County <br />ditch in the area is Ditch #47. <br /> <br />Mr. Wilharber indicated that the ditch Mr. Vanderbeek has an issue with also drains his <br />property on the west. He then noted he had talked to Mr. Hannah about his concern for <br />drainage. <br /> <br />Mr. Wilharber indicated he received sticker shock when he received the first estimated <br />assessment amount. Mr. Wilharber stated that a portion of his property is not in MUSA <br />until 2006 and the remaining portion in 2011. He further noted it is pretty tough to <br />swallow the assessment amount, as the property will not be in MUSA for quite some <br />time. <br /> <br />Mr. March indicated that the Metropolitan Council had indicated they would approve <br />putting the entire City in MUSA. <br /> <br />Mr. Wilharber stated that Mr. Peterson stated that typically both sides of the street are <br />assessed. Mr. Wilharber questioned why a portion of Hunter's Crossing is not being <br />assessed to run the improvements down to the new development. He further noted he <br />thinks the City should look at doing so. <br /> <br />Mr. Wilharber stated that, if the development goes through, he would like sewer run <br />under the road to him allowing a future hook up. He also stated that this would be in the <br />best interest of the City, as they would not disturb the outlet for the new development to <br />run sewer to his property in the future. <br /> <br />Mr. Wilharber stated that he would like to pay for the costs to run the sewer under the <br />road to the point where a roadway would be put in when his property develops in the <br />future. <br /> <br />Mr. Hannah, stated that he had been receiving a multitude of information and noted he <br />has had trouble contacting some of the players on his side of the deal to discuss the <br /> <br />Page 6 of 25 <br />
