The Committee discussed the time schedule for the Bellview/Bay
Lane Sewer Project submitted by the Clerk's Office and agreed
with the schedule. A discussion was held on clarification of
items by the City Engineer for the project. The Committee
decided not to request permission from the Pellmanns to put in a
temporary road on the 40 ft. sewer easement and determined that

will be no connection of Bellview Lane to Bay Lane.

assessment for the Oschmann Property, Tax Key #2217.999.002, on
that portion of the recently approved Certified Survey lot

would remain with the existing property on the payment plan.

motion carried.

request additional sewer service in the Linnie Lac Sewer
District. The Committee discussed the possibility of allowing up

to Council for consideration. Seconded by Ald. Sanders, motion
carried.
The Committee reviewed Hillendale Extension. Mr. Ken Purdy
appeared before the Committee to reaffirm that the residents of
Valley View Subdivision still do not want a lift station and are
hoping for some kind of development through the Schaefer farm so
that they can be served by gravity.
Mayor Salentine updated the Committee on FLOW.

• September 10, 1987
1. The odor complaints appear to be resulting from "normal"
sewage odor escaping from the lift station wetwell.
2. The wetwell hatches and exhaust duct should be
temporarily sealed to eliminate dischage of air from wetwell.
3. The ventilator should not be operated except during
maintenance activities in the wetwell.
4. Odor complaints should be immediately verified and
documented. Documentation should include:
a) Complainant's name and address
b) Date and time of complaint
c) Climatic conditions at the time of complaint
d) Verification of the complaint is to be conducted by a
non -sewer utility employee by a "walk -around" at the lift
station site and at the location of the complaint. A
written summary should be made.
5. If septic odors occur, the source should be
determined.
6. Record daily pumpage from the station flow recorder.
• 7. A follow-up meeting should be scheduled in approximately
1 month to evaluate progress and define permanent solutions.

has been given to Globe Contractors to October 1, 1987, to
complete the asphalting.

Company for repair of broken sewer lateral at W209 S10521 Valerie
