mam. Several hundred feet also borders wetlands and Centerville Lake. At the west end, both Peltier Lake and Centerville Lake are adjacent to the proposed water main, with no property to assess. It is felt that residential properties along CSAH 14 all receive equal benefit to connect to City water. The "average" lot, that can't be further subdivided, should be counted as one parcel. The large parcel south of the CSAH 14 - Peltier Lake Drive intersection would be divided into "equivalent" lots, based on the average area and front footage of residential properties in the area. The average front foot works out to 155 feet, so the large parcel gets 5 equivalent lots. Waterworks Beach Club is zoned commercial and would receive significant benefit from the new water main, since the building could be sprinklered. Based on previous assessments to commercial properties for utility extensions, and the insurance benefit associated with sprinkling, it is proposed to assign a $20,000 assessment to the Waterworks site. It would not be counted as an equivalent lot in the calculation. Using an "equivalent lot basis" for assessments, there are a total of 15 lots. The Shores development is not included in the 15. Water service can be provided to each of the lots. The City's policy in the past regarding oversized water mains, is to fund the difference in cost between standard residential size main and the larger diameter pipe. Along CSAH 14, it is necessary to extend 12" high density polyethylene pipe rather than 6 or 8" diameter pipe. The approximate cost difference is $15.00 per lineal foot for water main and $500.00 each for gate valves. This calculates as follows: 2,600 LF x $15.00/LF = 3 valves x $500.00IEA = Subtotal + 10% contingencies Total Construction + 20% indirect TOTAL TRUNK COST $39,000 1,500 $40,500 4,050 $44,550 8,910 $53,460 CSAH 14 Water Main Extension Page 6
