on our rear lot lines where the utility easement is and where the
storm sewer would be installed.
The Engineer stated that everything would be done to protect as many
trees as possible.
A number of people expressed concern over the size of pipe, if it would
be large enough to sufficiently serve the area without backing up the
water.
The Engineer stated that the design was on a five year frequency
maximum rainfall also stating that when construction plans are drawn
up.all size and locations of lines would then be determined.,
Eugene Coulter: Are the streets going to be assessed?
Engineer: This is a matter of Council policy and a decision would
be made prior to the final assessment by the Council.
Eugene Coulter: I would like to question the Council if the streets
are going to be assessed.
Councilman Hill: This is a hearing and no decision will be made at
this time.

that it may be designed too small.

administer the application of copper sulphate if the Village would
purchase it. Also that the homeowners would apply for the permit
from the Conservation Department to apply copper sulphate. The minutes

effluent did ultimately drain into Lake Riley.
