The first alternative would be to concentrate solely on the triangular site and extend an existing sanitary sewer, which is slightly to the southwest on the west side of Old Highway 8, northerly to the corner of his parcel. then go along the boundary line to mid-point where services could go to this parcel and extended to that parcel. This is the cheapest method as far as special assessments would be concerned. It would result in some rather long sanitary sewer services to lead to the other parcels. The second alternative serving the same area. was in keeping with the request of the owner, namely that this site be served initially and only a single line be constructed and at some future date - although unknown - the remaining third area would be served. This does not solve the probe 1m of this lot in the future. It also does not serve the two unconnected (inaudible) for the future - this large commercial site. A third alternative was therefore looked at, and this is the most expensive because (inaudible) it would extend the same line up as Alternative II, but a second line would be proposed to be built along the lot line to the corner of this area to serve Lot 2, and it would also construct a line under Old Highway 8 that would serve these two sites and potentially. at least, perhaps in the future, this other large undeveloped area. This one also has some services that are in the southern corner and it's un- known just how that will develop, and until that development does take place, it's impossible to say whether they will use this line o~ whethe~ they won't. The Public Works Department recommendation is that this be the alternative to be followed because potentially it takes care of all of the needs of the parcels. It could be done in three phases - although not recolnmended - that this be built first, and this the second, and this at some other time - again relatively soon, however. If we follow the phasing technique. it will mean additionsl administrative costs such as these hearings, assessment hearings. plus the fact that inflation will be raising the cost of construction, and the engineering costs will be higher per unit because there will be three small projects instead of one larger project. COUNCILMAN CURLEY: ~1hat place of business is that 3l14? MR. HONCHELL: That's a service station - a gas station. and this. although it's zoned commercial. is a single family residence. 2
