This construction would include street and storm sewer improvements as well as the extension of sanitarysewerand water main. This report was authorized by the City Council at their regular meeting on Tuesday, September 19, 2017. Short Elliott Hendrickson Inc. (SEH"} prepared a Municipal water Supply Feasibility Study in 2006 for the City of Gem Lake, That. study, dated May 16, 2006, reviewed options to provide a. municipal water supply system throughout the entire city of Gem Lake, The extension of municipal water main north .in. Scheuneman Road is consistent with that report. In 2016, the City of Gem Lake extended municipal water into this portion of the City via a connection to the City of White Bear Lake and new water main along County Road E and north into Scheuneman Road. Additionally, MCES has recommended that the City provide municipal sanitary sewer service.to .un-served parcels whenever possible.

In addition: to the 2016 water main extension into the south end of Scheuneman Road, in 2009 the south 500 feet of Scheuneman Road was. reconstructed. That project included the installation of storm sewer and the lining of the existing sanitary sewer main in Scheuneman Road.. The. proposed project would begin near where the water extension ended in 2016, 2 Existing Conditions 2.1 Streets The existing street is a. bituminous, rural. section roadway with.sorne. storm, sewer.at its south end.
