2 runs right alongside the Brandt Building to a point where it gets picked up and is carried to the railroad. Because of the fact that this drainage is on private property it's proposed to continue the system along the state trunk line. There's a mound of dirt here - we may have to put it into a pipe because the mound is so high - and put it into the storm sewer that exists there where it goes over the railroad. The other portion of the project is - you see three stars on the map on vacant residential parcels that are on the north side. These parcels do not have the completed sewer and water service system and it's proposed that those would be con- structed out all the way to the property line so that in the future if someone needed to connect on to the sewer or water, that they would not have to tear up the road. This project would be more or less identical to that which was built a few years back on the other portion of county Road C-2 from Long Lake Road to the east. Once again, the same policy applies here that applied on the previous project, namely, those lots that are R-l or R-2, single family or duplex and are taxable, would not receive any assessments because that's a city policy on an M.S.A. street. The other parcels that are commercial or industrial would be assessed. This particular roadway is rather lacking in drainage at the time. In our opinion it's in extremely poor condition. The road is carry- ing approximately 1300 cars a day and a good deal of those are trucks. Even though it's posted for three tons at one end, a good deal of those are trucks. I guess that's the extent of the presentation. MR. POPOVICH: The published cost of this improvement was $192,360.74. Of that $858.60 is the extension of the sewer service. Because there will be no assessments against the residential property, of the toal amount, $63,086 will be raised by assessing commercial property, and $128,415 will be paid from M.S.A. funds for the total $191,502 that has to be financed. The three sewer service lots will be assessed $286.20 per lot to get the sewer service from the street to the lot line. Again, this will be a 20 year assessment with 8% carrying charge with the right of prepayment as has been the customary policy. MR. ANDRE: 'rhere are no written statements. MAYOR DEMOS: I will open the hearing to the public. If you wish to speak or ask a question, corne to the microphone and give your name and address. MR. GORDON DAPPER, 2405 County Road C-2: That road has been posted for ten years for 9000 pounds and i~s never been enforced. Now, if you build a 9000 pound axle weight roadway, are you going to let unlimited traffic through or will you post it? MR. HONCHELL: All roads will be 9-ton maximum. There are some lO-ton routes that are very limited in nature, and as far as enforcement I have no good answer. I know there are vehicles driving over the road that are higher.
