PUM19891116PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMITTEE - CITY OF MUSKEGO
MINUTES OF MEETING HELD NOVEMBER 16, 1989
The meeting was called to order at 7:15 P.M. by Chairman Harold
Sanders. Also present were Committee Members Dave Sanders and
Simmons, Mayor Salentine, Ald. Dumke and those per the attached
list.
Mayor Salentine updated the Committee on the progress of the
recent negotiations between MMSD and the FLOW Communities. Ald.
Simmons moved to recommend approval of the 5th FLOW payment in
the amount of $21,000. Seconded by Ald. Harold Sanders, motion
carried.
The Committee reviewed Public Hearing comments on Facilities Plan
for Area Southeast of Big Muskego Lake. Chairman Harold Sanders
read letter from Ken & Gail Herda, Groveway Lane, stating that
they see a need for sewers; if not now, then in the future. Ald.
Dumke expressed concerns about implementing the plan until the
equalized valuation taxing required by SB65 is determined, a
contract with MMSD is finalized, and assurance from Developer
that development will occur to fund the project. The Committee
was of the opinion that the money invested in the Facilities Plan
would best be preserved by the adoption of the Facilities Plan.
Ald. Dave Sanders recommended to the Common Council the approval
of the Facilities Plan. Seconded by Ald. Simmons, motion
carried.
The Committee discussed Sewer Usage for multi -family units and
determined that as stated in the Public Utilities Committee
minutes of September 21, 1989, "all sewer usage charges for
multi-family/commercial units will be a yearly charge put on the
tax roll". Industrial Park properties are considered
"commercial" and should be placed on the tax roll, with the
exception of those requesting metering. Mother-in-law units will
be determined based upon the multi -family residential
equivalency. The sewer usage for a business and living quarters
in the same property, without separate plumbing facilities, shall
be charged 1.25 RECs.
The Committee discussed sewer restoration and it was noted that
some restoration of the ditches along Woods Road (Mystic to
Durham Sewer Project) has yet to be completed. It is anticipated
that it will be completed in Spring of 1990.
The Committee reviewed the Sanitary Sewer Study for the Beatka
property on Tans Drive & Hillendale Drive which was requested by
the City and supplied by the City Engineers and requested that
the Utility Superintendent determine other small sewer projects
and add this to the list. After preparation of the small
projects list, the affected property owners will be notified to
• attend the December Public Utilities Committee meeting.

NOTES FOR PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMITTEE OF NOVEMBER 16, 1989
Sewer
Unfinished Business
2. I recommend the adoption of the Facilities Plan since
it will be needed sometime in the future whether
sewers are extended immediately or not. Not adopting
this Facilities Plan would be a waste of $17,000 of
the Utilities' money.
4. Some restoration of the ditches along Woods Road have
yet to be completed. It is anticipated that it will
be completed in Spring of 1990.
5. I recommend directing the Engineers to draw up plans
for a sewer project to serve the Beatka property on
Hillendale and the Pattern Shop directly west on Tans
Drive. I also recommend not to bid until a decision
is made as to what other small sewer projects should
be done and bid all projects together.
New Business
1. I recommend directing me to compile a list of small
sewer projects that should be completed and bid out
as one contract.
4. I recommend directing the City Engineers to review
and report on how far service can be extended south
on Mystic Drive from Roger Drive.

I recommend approval of quote from Energenecs for
replacement of two motors and control panel at Jensen
Lift Station. One motor has already burned out and
the second one is in bad shape. In order to purchase
motors for our exising pumps, the control panel has
to be renovated. The cost for this purchase should
be taken out of Account #0100-0000-0005 (Replacement
Fund for Sewer Equipment). The original cost
estimate for one new pump was approximately $7,000.
After further investigation by Energenics, we were
able to purchase two new pumps and a new control
system for slightly more money - $7,420.

Due to wording in the Developer's Agreement which
states that the Utility will take over the water
mains and hydrants as soon as completed, I recommend
accepting the water system in the Bay Breeze
Condominium complex.
The Mayor and I met with representatives from MMSD today to
discuss the future of the dump station on College Court. MMSD
indicated that they would like to keep the dump station
permanently. We also met with a representative from BFI on whose
land the MMSD trailer is now parked. After conversations with
all involved, it appears that an agreement between BFI and MMSD
to lease land from BFI is feasible. I am working on obtaining
cost estimates for road work that may have to be completed at the
expense of the waste haulers and, possibly, MMSD.
