before the Growth Management Committee at their meeting
scheduled for Monday, September 21, 1992.
Mayor Salentine and Superintendent Kloskowski updated the
Committee on their meeting with the Town of Norway Sanitary
Sewer District #1 on Thursday, September 11, 1992. The Town of
Norway will review the status of the City of Muskego's
inflow/infiltration reduction program in Spring of 1993.
Richard Eberhardt, Ruekert & Mielke Engineering Co., appeared
before the Committee to discuss extension of water and sewer to
properties on Woods Road abutting the Plum Creek Subdivision.
The Committee determined that they were not in favor of a sewer
and water project at this time for the properties abutting Plum
Creek Subdivision. Further discussion was held on servicing
these properties through easements provided by Plum Creek
4� Subdivision. It was determined that water service through Plum
Creek Subdivision would be too costly. Sewer service will be
provided to the affected properties with a 2" lateral of 115'
in length to the Parker property (Tax Key 2227.988.003) and an
8" main extension of 180', plus a manhole, to the Mecca
property (2227.985). If the Henneberry property (2227.988.001)
is interested in pursuing sewer service, an easement will have
to be secured through the Parker property. Reimbursement for
these lines will be between the property owner and the
Developer, with the City coordinating negotiations.

Mr. John Witunski appeared before the Committee to request
sewer extension to his property which is in the City of
Franklin but abuts a manhole on Woods Road. Ald. Misko moved
to defer until the October meeting in order to determine from
MMSD how capacity for these lots would be allocated. Seconded
by Ald. Schneider, motion carried.

moved to recommend acceptance of sewer and water improvements.
Seconded by Ald. Schneider, motion carried.

sewer extension to the property on the northeast corner of
Woods Road and Racine Avenue. The Committee determined that it
would be necessary to review a sketch of the project prior to
allocating connections.

Woodscrest Heights Addition #1 Subdivision. Ald. Schneider
moved to recommend acceptance of improvements. Seconded by
Ald. Misko, motion carried.

with Waste Management representatives as to securing a site for
the future water tower.

Municipal Water and City Attorney's correspondence of September
14, 1992, with suggested procedure. In order to enforce the
existing Water Ordinance, an amendment must be made to correct
the Section of DNR regulations as presently listed in the
City's Water Ordinance. Ald. Misko moved to recommend an
amendment to Chapter 28, Section 28.05(4)(e) of the Municipal
Code to incorporate the correction Section of the

Utility Kloskowski discussed with the Committee a request from
a property owner at S81 W17170 Moonlight Drive who has a two
family home and has installed only one meter. The Committee
determined that the Ordinance clearly states in Chapter 28,
Section 28.04 (1)(d) Multi -unit dwellings shall be served by
individual meter water service to each unit; therefore, the
request was denied. Superintendent Kloskowski will notify the
property owner of the Committee's decision.
The Committee reviewed status of Agricultural Deferred
Assessments for the Lowe and Schmidt properties on Hillendale
Drive. The Committee noted that the five year deferment for
both properties expired on August 12, 1991. Both parties have
requested an extension of the deferred assessment. Ald. Misko
moved to recommend approval of the above properties entering
into another five year deferment; this being the second year.
Seconded by Ald. Schneider, motion carried.
The meeting adjourned at 12:00 P.M.
