PETITLANSe REQUESTS b COMMUNICATION:, dent'de
The following memorandum was read by CouncAlman lints rega.rdirg
a meeting With the Remel Fire Department concerning & proposed
fife protection service agreement.
The meeting was called to present to the Hamel Fire Department
our second priposed service agreement. The agreement was Fresented
and d owned in its entirety. 1.
The representatives of the Hamel Fire Department took exception to
two (2) paragraphs in the agreement. The fir6t was Item 4, Para-
graph A which in essence states that if Hamel Fire Department In=
Advertently receives a call from any resident in the area
covered by the agreement, they must notify the Plymouth Fite
Department of this fire call and its location immediately.
They also took exception to Item 2 of said agreement which again,
In essence, states that grass fires will be excluded from this
centracte Ha.+eves, if the Hamel Fire Departm,en . is called in on
a grass fire, it will be paid at the same hourly rates ($100 per
hour') specified in the agreement. The $100 per hour on grass fires
to be deducted from the $500 retainer.
Because of the limited amount of time remaining before the exist-
ing extended agreement became null and void (February 28, 19699
12900 Midnight), Mr. Donald DeslAurters called a special meeting
of the Hamel Fire Department the same evening, Februrry 26, 1969
fur the purpose of voting ca the Service Agreement. Mr. Julius
Dorweiler telephoned me and stated that the contract had been re-
jected because of the above mentioned exceptions."
Howard aunt, 17205-D County Road 047 .• appeared in behalf of the
residents who were served by the Hamel Fire Department. Ho:
stated to received m copy of a memo which was distributed by the
village to each resident in the area formerly served by ttatnel on
February 28, 1969. This memo stated they would no longer oe
served by Hamel. Mr. Etunl believed some residents north of
County Road 047 did not rt-ceive the itotit;e. Mr. Hunt read a
letter dated April 19, 19°66 adressed to Mayor StapleR from the
Fire Undexariter's Bureau which stated that without service from
Hamel. PlIrmout'k should have n third fire station; and he believed
it was cheaper to have a satisfactory ,Agreement with Hamel then
to establish a third fire station in Plymouth. qtr. Runt then
preaented a revived agreement made by Hamel for the Council's
consideration and signature.
Mr. Gerry Neils, 3890 Orleans Lane - stated he wished to remind the
Council that the Northeast and North side of Plymouth is in excess
of 500 population, and this protection is warranted, and that the
Council should loots very carefully into what dectoton they make on
this iblect to see these residents be treated fairly, as they have
had less protection for the number of people involved in their area
versus the Hamel area.

MOTION by Mayor Hilde to adopt a sewer assessment policy as follows: (1)
Acreage, $250; Commercial -Industrial, $375; (2) Front foot including ;
water, $18 (reduction from $20);.0) Service charge, $11 per quarter.
Councilman Hagen second the motion for discussion. Mayor Hilde feels that
300 for acreage is too high in comparison with the old sewer plan in the
east part of the Village and if this was lowered and service charge in-
creased (to those who will use it), this would have the effect of charging
more to those needing sewer now and less to those'not needing it at the
present time. It would also have a less coercive affect on large pieces
of land and forcing them to sell at an early point. Councilman Hagen
feels the large land owners benefit the most from a sewer project and land
values would rise and thereby be readily available for development. He
would like to see a $300 acreage charge .for residential and open land.
Councilman Johnson read his letter re.arding the southwest improvement RE: COUNCILMAN
to the Council as follows: JOHNSON'S LEITER
RE: S.W. SEWER
In the past several months, I have spent cpnsiderable time becoming
familiar with the various aspects of the proposed Southwest sewer and
water improvement program.
I have dissected the area involved as co needs and desires for this
program, and in doing so. I have talked to many people,
Unlike other isolated projects or programs that may benefit an entire
village, the benefits of this program are and were deeendent upon
the development and dollar soundness of thn; f1rst phase --that of the
South bast. The development of future sewer and water programs are
therefore dependent upon the southeast and now the proposed southwest.
From an engineering standpoint it would appear that phase -one was
sound --and there is little reason to doubt: that phase-tvo, the Southwest
is just as well conceived.
From a need and desire point of view, it would seem as though the South-
east project accomplished its objectives --and so should the southwest.
If tt e intent of any Village improvement program is to provide equal
beno,.':, : to, all res idents--tlion rightly so, cacti benefitted citizen
should shrtre eauallp in its cost.

After some rather :searching questions concerning the financing of RE: CO"CILMAN
both the South East and the South West projects, I believe 'it would JptiNSOWS LETTER
be of considerable value to the council to re-examine the cost and RE: S.W., SERER
assessment figures for the South East- and in turn how this relates
to the South West.
With these thoughts la mind. I would likc to propose the following:
I. We approve and order the South West improvement to begin as soon
as possible b.ased,on the following steps:
1. We procee3 immediately to secure construction Bids. At the
time of receipt of bids;, we have a careful review of these bids
by our enginner, and our financial consultants, with the primary
concern belwl what the bond market is like in terms df interest
rates.
2. If necessary. we hold those bids we consider good for a
specified ptariod of time (45 days) to see if an unfavorable
bond market becomes favorable.
3. If -ue find that construction bids are out of line --we can
call f)r re -bids in late summer.
4. If bids and finance costs are acc tptable, let contract9 for
construction to hegin this spring,
11. As a council we examine all of the financial aspects of the South
East program to clarify in our own minds --add those of the citi-
sens of the South West that the cost they are incurrta$t its equitm
able.
This should be completed and to us bV June 1.
III. Following a review of our financial comparison, we firm up our
assessment charges working from these preliminary figures:
Sewer: $200 per acre for residential and rnaidenttal open.
350 per acre for commercial and i.ndustrtal.
100 per acre hook-up charge to land now coned residential.
open at the time this land is rezoned for other use.
S 10 per lineal front foot.
Waters $175 charge for connection to the water system.
5 per lineal front foot.
k_ dt $ 3 per linekal front foot fer a mintsum five ton road.
Annual
Service Watert $50.00 per year
gre Sewert $42.00 per year
r
U
Cotmcil Minutes - March, 3, 1969 - Page 9
In addition, I recommend that laterale,be provided to all areas
Included in the program and that forced hook-ups be completed'irh
34, years from the date of completion of the project. which would
be by July 31, 1913. However, a hook-up to sever must take place
at any tine prior to July 31, 1973 when pumping of a septic system
Is necessary.
Some Considerations:
By providing laterals first to.,those Who need them, we will also
genera:e a fixed income flow tet -offset the extended hook-up period
of 31 yearn.
0
By maintaining a service charge of $42.00 to all families in the
South East and South West, we are increasing our income flow In the
eirly years and these -by reducing the possibility of an ski valorem
tax at a future date.
Also, the increased service charge to the South East will to some
degree provide additional coverage for the oxtended hook-up period
in the South West.

RE: PUNCI %N
JOHNSON'S L1?' MR
RE: S.W SEWER
In closing, I might may that our primary concern must remain threefold:
1. Is there a need and benefit fro m this Improvement?
2. Is it financially sourd?
3. Is it e••1.1 -able to the benefitted residents in terms of past,
current aad potential fut+.r+e developments of a similar nature?
Mayor Hilde asked Councilman: Johnson regarding the feasibility of his
recommended residential and open land acreage charge. Councilmen
Hagen stated that his recommended charge was meant to apply to unplatted
land, not R-0. Attorney Lefler said it would be difficult to charge
200 for platted land and $ZOO for unplatted land in an already R-1
area. Councilman Humphrey suggesreti reducing the acreage charge of
300 to $250. tayor 1111de said a five ton roed would be five dollars,
not three dollars as Councilman Johnson recommended. Engineer Bnne-
stroo said the roads can be bid two ways at Lidding time. although
he has never asked any contractor for two biota. Ile said that three
dollars a foot for a five ton road would be a real touch and go pro-
position.

ideO! on she time he would draw up the ordinance. Mayor Hilde sugg-
ested the Aduinistrator and Attorney make recommendation to the
Council to consider hookup.,tfrom two to three years. Councilman
Hints stated that the residents seemed to favor the Improvement if
there was a longer hookup time.
MUTION by Ccwncilman Hint%. second by Councilman Hagen, that the:
Administrator and Attorney work out the details on a thirty month
mandatory hookup for sanitary sever from date of availability or if
a septic system needed pumping, it then being their intention that
said mandatory hookup would apply to other areas in Plymouth as well
as the new areas. Motion passed by a five aye vote.

Mayor Hilde stated that 1969 is expected to be a busy conatruntive
year and with other economic variables he believed construction
should start in the Fall in 1969.for interceptors and in the spring
of 1970 for the laterals. Ile recommended staggering the worm, load
