If4 RANDOLPH FAIR: Mr. Arnold briefed the Council on a
request received from the Randolph
Chamber of CV~llerce to use the covered slab in the park for
the 1975 Randolph Fair. At this time, Mr. Arnold was only
wanting to know if the Council wanted to consider the request;
the details could be worked out later. Council requested Mr.
Arnold obtain details from the Chamber of Cvwwerce and bring
them back to the Council for consideration.
If5 WATER & SEWER REBATE PAYMENTS: Mr. Arnold presented some
proposals as made by
Mr. John Schaefer at a meeting held on February 4, 1975~ concern-
ing the settlement of the Village Subdivisions water and sewer
rebate payments and his street paving participation payment.
Council agreed with certain parts of the proposals and disagreed
with others. The City Manager was asked to contact Mr. Schaefer
and present the Council's counter proposals. Mayor Bueker said
there was a verbal agreement between Mr. Schaefer and the Council
stating that he would not get rebates for utilities on Village
3 and 4. It was suggested that the City get written and signed
statements from the former Mayor and Councilmembers who were on
the Council when this verbal agreement was made.
If6 DEER HAVEN SEWER LINES: Mayor Bueker brought the Council"
up to date on the sewer collection
lines in Deer Haven. Concerning the easement for this line, Mr.
Theis said the City could take him to court before he would grant
an easement;but Mr. Smith, 1116 Antler Drive, said he would
donate the entire 12 feet for easement if the City would build
a gravel road over the top of the easement so he could have
access over the easement to his garage and connect his house
to the sewer line. Mr. Arnold gave an estimate for this work as
follows: $200 to put in the sewer line and $200 for the gravel
road.
The alternatives for obtaining the easement over the Beck property
are: (1) City put in the 527' line to Mr. Beck's house and he will
donate all the land for the easement. (2) condemnation proceedings
which would cost the City in excess of $10,000. (3) Pay Mr. Beck
$10,000 for the easement or (4) give Mr. Beck a variance whereby
he would not have to connect until a line is closer to his house.
Mr. Graham of CCMA has been negotiating with Mr. Beck in behalf
of the City and Mrs. Funk suggested Mr. Arnold should be present
at these meetings.
