August 29, 1979 Mr. Jordan sair'a tha� Dick Thompson had indicated to him that xt was in the City's plans to loop this system so that a 6" line would be install but that was, not to be done for a long time.. He propose3 a compromise and asked that :hey be al.lowed to run a service line from either the 6^ or' 3" line, �,and �uou.ld agree that when the 6" goes in they will abandon � the:service conr.ec�ion an3 hook up to the G" line, but they pre.ferred tl hoo:c into the S" �line as it was closer. Counr_ilman Pope :.��ked Dick Thompson if the Adrians would have to pay in,l ' the foYm of an i,1D to have the 6" line put in dnwn the front of Wetmore � or would the City just put the loop line,in, and Dick Thompson said it would just be �ut in as a benefit to the system, but there would be a. V'OttriECtlUTi fee and added-that there are both-6" and 12" lines rur:n?nq �: �down Rockefeller and that is ho�v those properties are served. . -, Mr. Jordan stated that the Adrians had entered into a property exchanqei with Rohert and I:es Pringle.ot Everett•and as part of the exchanqe thes� lots tiaive to be sold, and if not �old because of the water problems the Pringles would suffer a financial difficulty if they had to buy b4ck•th� property and also lose the tax benefits of the exchange: � � , Mr. Jordan.�said that by putting tlie service connection down the alley � where the City has an �asement this would reduce the cost tha�i if it were to be put in the street, and Cour►cilman Ove:cstreet asked what that cost would be; and Pir. Jordan said he did not kn�w the exact amount. � Councilman Overstreet felt the cost would be as much or greater to hook up to the 6".line later,.and Mr. Jordan resporided that there would be ,a cost tu the property owner for just'a service connection^'if that - system o�ere looped, but felt it would not be $5,200. Dick Thompson said there was a State Administrative Code that if we extend our system it would requxre.a 6" line from A'etmore to 5th and the Adrians are trying to.avoid this.by putting in a•service connection that would run through a Cit.y right-of-way to 5th St. The City is con- cernetl caith long service conn��ctio'ns in our right-oi-ways in terms of • maintenance and �ahether it'c4as their line or the City's and that �oas 'why the policy wss established,by Council: � . Councilman Lanyus felt. there was no problem as we would be runninq a service line in a main to serve 2 humes, and Di.ck Thompson feJ.t t•.he issue was whether we should allow them to hook.up to our system wit-li a privately owned service canneci;ion in a street or all.ey. � Councilman Aaker azrived ai� ihis i:ime. .. ' Councilman Overstreet felt the neighbors in this area should be noti�i as it.could be of some significance in the future and Mrs. Adrian said that the vacant lot between some o£ thi� proper.l=y was o�oned by JacY �Aeath and it has a 2" .line rum�ing to hi.s hnuse. blayor Moore said tha� L-he ndministration was i.n symPathy with the � Adrian's problem and �ohat the Council does sets a precedence, but he was concerned because the City has been insi.sti.ng that water ].i.nes h� � put in the proper perspective of the goals of. 1.he ^z.i:y, He fc:ii: l:�ecaus¢ of the contractor's involvement in this i.ssue't:here wau7.h be Jeverage � brought against the City in.the iuture in this regard: He propdsed a conpromise of a 50-50 split whcre tlle Citl �oill pa�� half and L-he builde� will pay half.
