Inquiry Concerning Drinking Fountain
At your April meeting, Commissioner Berg inquired about the feasibility of installing a
drinking fountain on Kerber Boulevard at Chanhassen Pond Park (see location map). An
obvious requirement for a fountain is a source of water. Less obvious is the need for a
drain into a sanitary sewer system. Unfortunately, the nearest watermains are located on
the west side of Kerber Boulevard and the south side of Sierra Trail. The nearest sanitary
sewer line is also located along Sierra Trail~
Estimated Cost:
Drinking Fountain
Site Work Including Connection
to Sanitary Sewer and Watermain
$1,000
$4,000 - $6,000
If the location of the fountain was moved north to location #2, the cost of site work could
be reduced by a third.
Recommendation: Continue walking south to Byerly's for a Perrier.
