<br />City of Centerville <br />City Council Meeting <br />June 11,2008 <br /> <br />City Engineer Statz replied that with Peltier Lake Drive, they made a compromise going <br />down to 28 feet. He stated that 24-26 feet is generally not an acceptable width. He added <br />that when the curb on each side is 2 feet wide, that brings the street itself down to 24 feet, <br />so 28 feet is not all that wide. <br /> <br />Councilmember Lee stated that Brian Drive is wider north of Main Street. <br /> <br />City Engineer Statz replied that the small piece of Peltier Lake Drive is where the road is <br />in better condition. He added that reducing the street width would provide only minimal <br />savings. <br /> <br />Councilmember Paar inquired about what could be done with the houses on Peltier Lake <br />Drive, where 14 is coming through. <br /> <br />Mayor Capra replied that City Attorney Glaser is looking into it. <br /> <br />City Engineer Statz stated that there are another dozen cases that may have been assessed <br />before, and that those issues will be worked out in a fair manner. <br /> <br />Councilmember Paar stated that things would be resolved along the way. <br /> <br />City Engineer Statz stated that the County is realigning that intersection. He said they are <br />paying for all of it, and he does not know if they will get any Federal funds back. He <br />added that they would have a lot of opportunities to work these things out individually as <br />they go along. <br /> <br />Motion by Council Member Lee. seconded by Council Member Paar. to annrove <br />Res. #08-015 - Orderine: Imnrovements - 2009 Street Proiect. All in favor. Motion <br />carried unanimously. <br /> <br />Councilmember Paar suggested that they make sure each property is not being over <br />assessed. He stated that if there is 50 feet of property line, and 60 feet was recorded in <br />error, the property owners need to be reassured that it will be double checked and <br />corrected. <br /> <br />Council member Broussard Vickers expressed concern that the Council should be pretty <br />committed to moving the project forward unless the bids are way above expectations, <br />given the investment that will be made in engineering plans. <br /> <br />City Engineer Statz stated that the engineering cost to bring the approved work to bid <br />would be about $170,000. <br /> <br />Councilmember Broussard-Vickers stated that there is a consensus to reconsider the <br />existing ordinance requiring hook-up to city water within one year and/or change the date <br />requiring all properties to be connected to City water-currently required by the end of <br />2012. <br /> <br />Page 6 of 15 <br /> <br />6 <br />
