REQUEST FROM MINNETRISTA PROPERTY OWNER TO HOOK-UP TO CITY OF
MOUND SANITARY SEWER
The City Engineer explained that the Sandquists, whose property
abuts Mound in Minnetrista, have asked to be allowed to hook-up
to Mound's sanitary sewer. He stated that Mound's 8 inch sewer
line is 100 feet east of the Minnetrista boundary on Walnut Road.
If the line were allowed it would be the property owner's respon-
sibility to maintain the line from Mound's border (the manhole at
the border) to the home in Minnetrista. Since the Sandquist's
request, another request for the adjacent property owner (Larry
Shaw) has been received so Mound would be connecting 1 existing
house and 1 proposed house on the adjacent lot. The cost would
be $3232.40 for the 2 connections, plus the MWCC's SAC charge of
$550./each.
The Council discussed having Minnetrista initiate action request-
ing that these two residents be allowed to hook-up to Mound's
sanitary sewer; submitting the agreement that has been prepared,
limiting the connections to 2 existing parcels only, to Min-
netrista and asking that any restrictions they might have be in-
corporated into the it.
MOTION made by Abel, seconded by Smith directing the Staff
to prepare an agreement that limits the connections to 2 ex-

proval before Mound takes action. The vote was unanimously
in favor with Councilmember Jessen absent and excused. Mo-
tion carried.
