HEARING -- FURLONG Mayor Huber opened the meeting for the purpose of a feasibility
AVENUE AREA hearing on proposed sanitary sewer and water improvements to
IMPROVEMENTS serve the Furlong Avenue area. Mayor Huber turned the meeting
over to City Administrator Johnson for a brief history and
explanation of the proposed improvements.
Mr. Johnson stated that the hearing notice had been published
in the Sun Newspaper and that copies of the notice and a
letter explaining the proposed f roject had been sent to the
property owners who would be affected by the proposed improvements
Mr. Johnson stated that along with the sewer and water
improvements, an elevated water storage tank and trunk water
line must also be considered. He explained the sanitary sewer
I
portion of the project, stating that the property owned by
the Metropolitan Airports Commission would not be affected by �
the sanitary sewer improvements, and described where the sewer
line would be run. He stated that the estimated cost of the
sewer portion of the project is $250,000. It has been
recommended to the City Council that the cost of the sewer
improvement be assessed by two methods, front foot assessment `
and area assessment. This would amount to an estimated $20.00
per front foot cost and $0.06 per square foot on the area
basis. He stated that under this manner of assessment procedure,
a portion of the cost of sewer construction would be assessed

_iceveloped area included within the project arca.
c::st of the sewer improvement would amount to
ti ,000 per lot, based on a standard 15,000 square oct lot.
Ifr. Johnson explained that the estimated cost for vatermain
construction would be approximately $235,000, and explained
where the water lines would run. He stated that the MAC
property would benefit from the water improvements and that
the cost for watermain construction would be distributed
amongst the benefitting property owners, including MAC.
He further explained that a portion of the cost for the 12"
watermain would be paid by general taxes. The estimated
assessment cost would be approximately $14 to $15 per lineal
foot. He explained that the estimated $122,000 cost for
a trunk water line and the estimated $718,000 cost for a 1.5
million gallon water storage tank would be borne by all of the
water users in the community.
Mr. Johnson pointed out that the total estimated cost for the
proposed improvements for a standard 15,000 square foot lot
would be approximately $4,300 to $4,500. He explained that
the policy in the past has been to spread the assessments over
a nineteen year period (for sewer and water), with an interest
rate of 7% on the unpaid balance.
Mayor Huber asked for questions and comments from the
audience.
Mr. Frank Boody, 1284 Lakeview, asked for cost figures on
recently completed sewer and water projects for comparison
purposes.
Mrs. Jean Franson, 2170 Pilot Knob Road, stated that she owns
10 lots abutting Victory Lane and asked if a sanitary sewer
assessment would be made against these lots.
Miles Bredvold, 1281 Lakeview, asked about assessment
procedures for odd -shaped lots.
Mr. Richard Doffing, 1314 Furlong, asked about assessment
policies for triangular lots.
Bob Einsweiler, consultant for the MAC, stated that the matter
of the proposed improvements has not officially been before the
MAC as yet. He stated that the staff at the MAC will recommend
the MAC participation in its share of the assessments for the
proposed improvements if the City officials deem that the
project is necessary.
Mr. Ellsworth Stein, 1296 Lakeview, asked if objections to the
improvements will be considered by the Council if the objections
are submitted after the hearing is closed.

RE: Proposed Street Improvement
Clement - Vand- 11 Area
Dear Sirs: ,
The affected residents of the area have been dolled to
dete_:mine their feelings concerning the rrouosed street
improvements.
An overwhelming majority of the residents s-,:-pnort a proposal
consisting essentially of the following:
24 foot aide streets on Upper Clement, lst Avenue,
2nd Avenue, 3rd Avenue, 4th Avenue, Clement from
2nd to 3rd Avenues, Vandall from 3rd to 4th Avenues;
18 foot wide streets in all other areas;
curbs only at corners;
storm sewers essentially as in the "Country Stele"
street proposal by Bettenburg dated i.ay 14, 1975.
A petition_ and sketch of this proposal will be turned into
the City on Monday morning, June 16, 1975.
We also request that Jere Logan be included on the Agenda
for the June 17, 1D75 City Council meeting to present this
proposal and speak for the area residents.
Sincerely,
Cle went - Var_dall Residents

I am vriting in opposition to the proposed sec.er and tater im-orovements
because their end result would be to force me out of my house.
Although our lot has only about 60 feet of street frontage, it includes
about 2 acres of land, -plus another acre under the north end of the lake.
Judging from the comments at last night's meeting my assessment might well
be something like this:
2 acres or 87,120 so. ft. x $.06 *5227
160 ft. frontage (to normal water line)
16o ft. x Y35 556r)0
notal assessment 4c,10,827

Dear Sir,
We are writing to protest the sewer and water being brought
into the Furlong -Addition.
We were very much in favor of the project until we heard
the cost of the project. We could pump the present cesspool
we have for the 30 years (once a month) and still not come
close to the cost of the improvements.
Since nothing was ever brought up at the council meetings
about the cost of hooking up we checked with Genz & Ryan
in Rose;iount and their rough estimate was $1500j.00. Out of
this figure these was more than $600.00 for permits. Since we
have a lot with 160, frontage and it is a corner lot (we understand
we have to pay for 101 on the side) this is coming to a figure
close to $10,000.00. It is inconceivably impossible for us
to pay for a figure like this.
We would like you to consider this a letter of protest for
my mother who lives across the street and because of illness
is not able at this time to write for herself. She is on
social security and will lose her home if the project is
allowed to p -o through.
We also would at this time to make a formal complaint on the
condition of Kendon Lane since last spring when you saw fit to
I14PROVE the street. Since you scarified the street it has been
a full time job taking oil off the floors and carpeting. No
ore has been able to wear shoes in the house for a year. Last
Sunday we had a graduation party with over 100 people at the
house. Need we say more. The sand that was put on to rectify
the situation last fall did not do any good. We would appreciate
anything you could do to solve the problem.
Thank you,

Gentlemen:

JUN 12 1975
In response to your request at the June 3rd Council meeting pertaining to the
sewer and water proposal to the Furlong Addition, this letter is to inform you
that we are NOT in favor of this proposed improvement. Following are the
reasons for our decision.
1. We have not, in 1q years, experienced any problems with either our sewer
system or our water supply. A little preventive maintenance and common
sense use could eliminate most of the problems some residents may be
experiencing.
2. The cost of the proposed sewer and water system is so prohibitive that if
our property were to be sold, after installation of the proposed improvements,
only a small percentage of that cost could be retrieved, therefore, in our
estimation a very poor investment.
3. As we have been informed by experts, a drainfield type system is far superior
to a cesspool system, therfore, why not install a drainfield system if a
problem is present or you are erecting a new home. It certainly must be
more economical than the proposed central system. Also, to the best of our
knowledge, none of the residents have tried installing a drainfield to
replace their problem system.
Respectfully submitted,
Mr. & Mrs. Hollis E. Huebner

Re: Excessive water in the valley
JV® -}� ^
®&t
During the development of Friendly Hills, Wachtler Avenue,
Mendota Plaza and Rogers Lake we feel the Village has created a problem
for the valley by the excessive water run-off from these areas. Be-
cause
e-causa of this, the existing pond and streams rapidly filled with silt
and caused the water to spill over its banks into the valley and on
private property. This excessive water is killing natural wildlife
habitus, caeating mosquito breeding areas, ruining gardens and making
the ground dangerously spongy and unfit for walking.'
We feel the situation could be improved by re-establishing
the pond in the valley between Hwy. 110 and Marie Avenue.
We the undersigned would be glad to appear before the council
relative to this matter.

Mr. Orvil J. Johnson, Administrator
City of Mendota Heights

Saint Paul, Minnesota 55120
Subject: Mendota Heights
Cherry Hill Second Addition
Sewers, Water, Streets
Improvement 75 Project 2
BTSC Job No. 7428
Dear Orvil:
The following constitutes a feasibility report for proposed sanitary
sewers, storm sewers, water mains and street construction in Cherry Hill
Second Addition being platted by the Alzada Company. The property, loc-
ated on the west side of Wachtler Avenue and south of Economics Laboratory,
Inc., is one which provides problems with regard to sanitary sewer service
and storm water removal. It is fairly well wooded and every means should
be taken to destroy as few trees as possible.
The installation of streets and water mains is fairly routine in that
an existing 12 inch main is located on Wachtler Avenue and street access
is also available on Wachtler Avenue with potential extension southward
into the Wachtler Farm.
With regard to sanitary sewers, topography is such that consideration
was given to the use of a lift station, pumping sewage to the Wachtler
Avenue sewer. This is being discarded because of initial cost and perpetual
maintenance costs. As indicated on an attached drawing, we propose a
collection system which will flow with the topography and end up in a line
s Mr. Orvil.J. Johnson, Administrator - 2 - 11 June 1975
flowing westward across N.S.P. property and into an existing interceptor
sewer.
Crossing N.S.P. property will require some rock excavation but this '
is still better than a lift station. It will also permit the N.S.P. fac-
ility to utilize the municipal sewer system for one of its buildings.
Assurances have already been given that easements can be obtained.
In the matter of surface water removal, the topography dictates that
surface water will naturally flow northwesterly, and provisions are being
made, as part of this report, to install a holding pond on Outlot "A" with
metered flows being transmitted across N.S.P. property into an existing
ravine and to the Mississippi River by way of the Lilydale Road ditch
through Lilydale. A dike will be constructed on two sides of Outlot "A"
requireing the removal of some small trees and brush. Periodic flooding of
trees is not expected to be harmfull. An outlet facility will meter out
storm waters over an extended period of time.
The installation of Municipal facilities in Cherry Hills Second
Addition will permit extension into the Wachtler Farm and provide for de-
velopment of this property with approximately 13 to 14 acres able to be
served through Cherry Hills Second. Because minimum size sanitary sewers
in Cherry Hills Second Addition will be capable of serving the Wachtler
property, we will not consider cost sharing at this time. Storm sewer
construction in Cherry Hills Second is being oversized to serve the Wachtler
property and that cost sharing will be discussed later in this report.
Sanitary Sewers
To do the proposed work will require the construction of approximately
2,700 feet of 9 inch pipe and appurtenances at an estimated assessable cost
Mr. Orvil J. Johnson, Administrator - 3 -
11 June 1975
of $51,850.00 including fees and contingencies. Anticipated service
connections will add $8,050.00 for an estimated financing cost of $50,900.00.
With an estimated 3,200 feet of assessable frontage, the unit assessable
cost is expected to be $16.20 per foot. This unit price is a little higher
than recent normal anticipated costs but we do have about 1,100 feet of
outfall line which has no assessable frontage and is partially in a rock
excavation area. This must be considered a site penalty.
Six of the lots facing Wachtler Avenue have not been included in the
assessment consideration as part of the above calculations in that they are
a part of a deferred sanitary sewer assessment prepared as part of Imp-
rovement 69 Project 3• As of this time, we recommend that the deferrment
be pro -rated over the six lots to satisfy the earlier project. This will
make sanitary sewer assessments on all lots in the subdivision fairly well
balanced.
To do the proposed work will require the installation of approximately
2,400 feet of 6 inch water main and appurtenances for an estimated assessable
cost of $37,500.00 including fees and contingencies. Services will add ap-
proximately $10,000.00 for a total financing cost of $47,500.00. With
approximately 3,100 feet of assessable frontage, the unit assessable cost
is expected to be $12.10 per foot. This is in line with recent costs on
similar projects and does include the cost sharing of deferred assessments
as part of Improvement 2 Project 1 by the six (6) lots along Wachtler Ave-
nue. This can be done in a manner similar to the procedure suggested for
sanitary sewers and will make most•all assessments average out reasonably
well.
' ' Mr. OrYil J. Johnson, Administrator - 4 - 11 June 1975 .
Storm Sewers
Storm sewers, including the construction of a ponding area and mut-
fall facilities, are estimated to cost approximately $65,000.00 including
fees and oontYngencYas. The assessable area within Cherry Hills Second
Addition is estimated to be 600*000 square feet. That portion of the
Wachtlar Farm to the south, that lies within the drainage district served
'
bythe proposed storm sewer system, Ysabout 60O,00Osquare feet. Based
on that portion of the storm sewer and ponding area construction cost
which is attributable to Cherry Hill Second and to the Wachtlar property,
we find the assessable unit cost for Cherry Hill Second is about 7-3/4
cants per square foot while that for the Waohtlmr property is 3 cents per
square foot. This amounts to approximately $47,000.00 for Cherry Hill Second
and $18°000,00 for the Wachtler property.
The assessment rata for Cherry Hill Second is higher than normal but
we do have an unusual drainage problem and a more than normal method of
solving the problem. The nate for the Wacht|ar property is reasonable in
that when it is developed additional storm sewers will have to be built
and assessed accordingly.
Streets
The construction of streets for this subdivision will follow the usual
pattern of 30 foot bituminous surface with concrete curb and gutter as
shown on the attached drawing. To do the proposed work, as shown, will
cost an estimated $81,775.00 including fees and contingencies. With approx-
imately 3*700 feet of assessable frontage, the unit assessable cost is
estimated to be $22.10 per foot. This is in line with other similar
Mr. Orvll J. Johnson, Administrator - 5 ll June 1975
One facet in connection with the street construction requires the
acquisition of an easement on the Wachtler property at the south end of
Farmdale Road, as shown on the drawing, to provide a gravel turn -around for
' snow plowing and other traffic so that the street may be completed to the
south line of the subdivision pending future extension into the Wachtler
property.
The above proposed project is reasonable and feasible and is herewith
recommended for construction after the usual public hearing has been est-
ablished and conducted.
If you have any questions, please call ma,
yours,
