Member Seigler emphasized the city's initiative to save money through addressing <br /> non-metered usage. <br /> As the city begins metering that usage, Chair Cihacek suggested staff track the <br /> usage and savings as a demonstration to residents the improvements being <br /> undertaken by the city, especially focusing on larger public facilities with larger <br /> land areas. Chair Cihacek noted this would exemplify a bigger return, and whether <br /> code or usage issues, provide information on those larger use profiles, as case <br /> studies to use in rolling out the education process. <br /> Member Wozniak suggested, if possible, incorporating stormwater management <br /> into that educational piece as well (e.g. Upper Villa Park and baseball field <br /> irrigation system), and then look at Fairview Avenue and stormwater issues in that <br /> area and if there was a way to capture or redirect that drainage. Member Wozniak <br /> noted this would allow that stormwater to be used in a positive way if used for <br /> irrigation purposes in place of using fresh water. <br /> Mr. Culver noted watershed districts were huge proponents of re-use; but noted the <br /> difficulty with those large projects in the long-term economic payback for those re- <br /> use systems. Therefore, Mr. Culver noted the goal is to incorporate other reasons <br /> beyond financial to pursue those projects. Mr. Culver reported that discussion was <br /> underway to consider another re-use system by Fairview at Evergreen Park, that, <br /> with grant application. Mr. Culver noted code items would need to be addressed <br /> by the Planning Commission and/or City Council, and perhaps considered for larger <br /> developments of a certain size, that they be required or encouraged — if doing <br /> irrigation on site — to build a re-use system into their development. Mr. Culver <br /> advised that staff would look into that further. <br /> 6. Sanitary Sewer Services Discussion <br /> Mr. Culver noted the ongoing hours of discussion at the PWETC and City Council <br /> levels in continuing to explore options for maintenance or assistance to residents <br /> for private sanitary sewer services. Mr. Culver deferred to Mr. Sandstrom for an <br /> update since last discussed and previous consideration of a service warranty <br /> program and presentation by Paul Pasko on options for lining private services, <br /> along with what other municipalities were doing. <br /> Mr. Sandstrom provided a brief review of the general cross section as displayed <br /> and defining public and private lines; ordinances in other cities and city attorney <br /> input related to enforcement following inspections and service replacement <br /> requirements. Mr. Sandstrom referenced the necessary Inflow and Infiltration(I& <br /> I) mandates related to these efforts. <br /> Mr. Sandstrom reviewed some of the programs for discussion, including point of <br /> sale;inspections based on street projects(Roseville currently does this);inspections <br /> based on permit applications; city-wide inspections; and/or blanket replacement. <br /> Mr. Sandstrom clarified that, at this point, the City of Roseville did not require <br /> Page 7 of 17 <br />
