Lannon/Martin Sewer Project - Bid action: Mr Klatt (tax key #2171.022) and Mr and Mrs. Baas (tax
key #176.999) were present to finalize the plans. Rich Eberhardt was in contact with MMSD regarding
the request of the residents for a common lateral due to financial hardship. MMSD responded to the
request and indicated that they could not classify the property as a lateral and require an 8 inch main
with manholes. The 6 inch common with lateral was rejected. R&M recommended accepting the low
bid with gravity sewer Scott Kloskowski suggested parallel laterals run into the same trench. If this
option is taken, MMSD approval would not be required. Aid. Slocomb questioned if I&I problems have
occurred with damaged cleanouts? Breaking near the surface due to plows, mowers and snowmobile
traffic were the major problems. Proper marking of these out-croppings would help alleviate the
problem. Scott Kloskowski to call Wayne Stever to obtain a price quote to install two laterals running
parallel in one trench. Due to the 120 day hold on bids, rejection of submitted bids was not necessary
until a new pricing for the dual laterals could be obtained and reviewed. Maintenance of the laterals
will be the City's responsibility since they will be placed in the right-of-way. Aid. Sanders moved to
defer action on bids at this time until alternate solution was reviewed. Seconded by Aid.
Slocomb. Vote 2-0, carried by all.

their lateral running into their neighbors property. The neighbors will not allow any destruction to
occur on their property. According to Mr. Jones, most contractors will not attempt this particular
• project due to the narrow work area, depth of trench and soil type. The cost to connect will be in
excess of $20,000. Scott Kloskowski suggested giving a grinder pump to this resident. Scott will call
Wayne Stever tomorrow to discuss this project. Aid. Slocomb moved to allow the installation of a
grinder pump going to the closest manhole for the residents at W140 S9221 Boxhorn Drive.
The road opening fee to be paid by the residents at an appropriate rate, with a hook-up
extension granted until the July Public Utilities meeting.

No recent contact has been made by the residents. No signed contracts for service have been
forwarded to the Committee. Scott Kloskowski recommends that until contracts are provided, the

0; carried by all.

currently handled by his daughter Wayne Stever has been contracted to perform this project on this

meeting for the Wudtke property.
Review Forced Hook-ups for Woods Road (County Brooke) Sewer Project: Karen Bartes (tax
key #2224.995) was present to request an extension of the April 1, 1998 deadline for hook-up. She
has contract with Elite Plumbing. Aid. Sanders moved to approve a hook-up deadline extension
to the July Public Utilities meeting for the Bartes property. Seconded by Aid. Slocomb. Vote
• 2-0, carried by all.
John and Sheila Bieniewski (tax key #2224.992) claim to be unable to afford the assessment. They
have not fully pursued the hardship policy exemption. Ald. Sanders is working with this resident to
assist them. The forced connection fee placed on a 5 year payment plan was discussed as a manner
to reduce the fiscal impact on the residents. The Mayor suggests that the resident look into alternative
methods to fund this project by applying to the various agencies in Wisconsin for funding. Aid.
Sanders directs Scott Kloskowski to begin the process of securing bids for a forcemain hook-
up for tax key 2224.992. The Committee recommends that Council approve this forced hook-
up. Seconded by Aid. Slocomb. Vote 2-0, carried by all. Scott Kloskowski is instructed to contact
the resident and supply them with agency listings for hardship fund options.
The resident had
problems with the lateral. A television camera was sent into the lateral and a 6 inch root was inside
the lateral due to a crack in the pipe fitting. Because the lateral was located in the right-of-way,
reimbursement to the resident for the cost of the camera is recommended. Aid. Sanders moved to
approve the reimbursement of $275.00 to the Johnson residence located at S6415 Lentini.
Seconded by Aid. Slocomb. Vote 2-0, carried by all.
Review of sewer plan proposed amendment - Muskego Middle School: Mr Jerry Wegner and
Tony Zanon from Jahnke & Jahnke were present to discuss the options available to them due to a low
flow problem on the building site as well as their proximity to a waterway. The two viable options were
either siphon or a forcemain sewer to Patricia Court. A regional lift station was discussed as an option
but found not to be viable. An easement for the forcemain will need to be granted for that site. A legal
description is required from Jahnke & Jahnke before approval can be obtained. Aid. Sanders moved
to approve the concept of a lift station and forcemain and easement for the forcemain to
Patricia Court for the Muskego Middle School. Plans to be finalized with review from City of
Muskego and the Town of Norway.
