Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council <br />Monday, October 15, 2012 <br />Page 13 <br />Mr. Metzung replied, yes. Those homes did and maybe the two corner homes on Robley. <br />Historically again, to refresh everyone's recollection, Mayor Rinker continued, there had been a <br />pump station, the Thomapple Pump Station which had been on its last legs probably 20 years <br />ago. They got a new engine block and got a new lease on life but ultimately the County had to <br />take that one out of commission and set up the pump facility that's in the circle right there at <br />Ravine where Robley comes in to Ravine. Those 7 houses were put in and put on line. Again we <br />were fortunate there because the Village didn't have to contribute anything to tha.t. The County <br />covered that whole nut. So our residents in that one little area got a benefit. Otherwise, as you <br />know, what we have done is looked at the end game, having an assessment for each residence <br />comparable in one neighborhood to any other neighborhood. The problem is the variables are <br />always the particular projects given the terrain, soils, you name it, can vary pretty significantly. <br />They are a11 in the millions of dollars. That's really why we are really trying to push this one <br />along. <br />Council President Buckholtz asked, how many people and how many homes? <br />Mr. Esborn replied, 58 on Eastgate and Meadowood. <br />Council President Buckholtz asked, they will be able to pay the assessment comparable to <br />previous? <br />Mayor Riiilcer replied, yes. If everything ends up as we proj ected, they will end up with a <br />comparable assessment as other residences that have gone through the conversion from septic to <br />sanitaxy. <br />Council President Buckholtz asked, anybody else? <br />Mr. Delguyd asked, you mentioned tha.t if we get the funding, the project could be done in 2013 <br />or 2014? <br />Mayor Rinker replied, I believe in 2013 because it's usually by January or February that we get <br />the read from the County. <br />Mr. Esborn added, I think it depends on when it starts. We are conservative in the application <br />and don't have it starting until August of 2013. If that's the case, we have it going in to 2014. If <br />we are able to start it earlier, we can probably get it done by 2013. <br />Council President Buckholtz stated years ago we used to get the news in December. <br />Mr. Esborn stated, in the application, they allot periods for finding out, bidding, etc.
