Old Business
Lift Station - Audubon Drive - Mr. Dougherty recommended an alarm
system be installed at the Audubon Drive Lift Station which Mr.
Stephanak complained of. Mr. Dougherty stated there would be'an
alarm system available from an old lift station which will be put
out of service after completion of the North-South Interceptor.
Mayor Reiman asked what a new system would cost as opposed to
using the one from the old lift station. Mr. Dougherty stated a
new alarm system installation would cost approximateley $1700 and
to install the old one would cost approximately $200. Following
discussion by the Board regarding the time before the interceptor
would be completed and the alarm system available, Mr. Walker
made a motion to put a new alarm system in the Audubon Drive lift
station as soon as possible. Motion seconded by Mr. Swift and
passed unanimously.
New Business
Availability Request - Sewer - Shell Station - The Board was in
receipt of a request from the Shell Station at 96th and Keystone
for sewer availability. Mr. Welch stated he would recommend
approval of the request as there is very little running through
that lift station at this time but the record should show that
all commitments made from this point will create a need to expand
the lift station after those granted availability come on line.
Following discussion, Mr. Walker made a motion to approve 2.1
EDUs or 630 gallons per day sewer availability to the Shell
Station at the corner of 96th Street and Keystone Avenue and that
the lift station and oversizing be done at such time as it
becomes necessary. Motion seconded by Mayor Reiman and passed
unanimously.
Rangeline Road Ingress-Egress Easement - Mr. Coots explained that
the City owned a strip of land between Rangeline Road and
property owned by Lawson J. Clark. Mr. Clark was requesting that
the City grant an ingress-egress easement across the City's
easement to the ground he owns which is needed before he can sell
it to Mr. Estridge. Mr. Coots explained that this was proper
procedure. Mayor Reiman stated that she wanted to look at it and
have the City Engineer look at it. The Mayor stated that there
were some lawsuits still pending on Rangeline and she didn't want
