7/2/2015 Coversheet <br /> Public Works <br /> 2015-27 <br /> DATE: 6/24/2015 <br /> TO: Honorable Mayor McElroy and City Council Members <br /> FROM: Richard G. Marley, P.E., Public Works Director <br /> SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing a Water Service Agreement for 4333 North Taylor Avenue <br /> SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by staff that the City Council approve the attached <br /> resolution authorizing a Water Service Agreement between the City of Decatur and the property owners for 4333 <br /> North Taylor Avenue. <br /> BACKGROUND: <br /> The City of Decatur extended a 16 inch water main along North Taylor Avenue as part of a phased <br /> approach toward creating a water main interconnection on the northwest side of the City of Decatur between <br /> Oakland Avenue and West Mound Road. As is typical with these extensions, residents periodically request <br /> permission to tap into these water lines to service properties which are located outside of the City limits and <br /> existing water agreement areas. To service properties outside of the City limits, a Water Service Agreement <br /> must be entered .into between the City and the property owners. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTIONS: There are no known objections to this resolution and agreement. <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: None <br /> SCHEDULE: <br /> If approved,the owners will pay all applicable tapping fees and permits prior to connection to the city water <br /> main by a licensed plumber. <br /> BUDGET/TIME IMPLICATIONS: <br /> Budget Impact: Water rates for those properties outside of the City are double the normal rate paid by <br /> customers located within the corporate limits. In addition, when these properties become contiguous to the <br /> corporate limits, they are required to annex to the City. <br /> Staffing Impact: No additional staffing impact will be realized by this agreement. <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: David Horn, Supervisor of Technical Services, at 217-424-2747. Mr. Marley will be in <br /> attendance at the City Council meeting to answer any questions of the Council on this item. This Memorandum <br /> was prepared by David A. Horn. <br /> ATTACHMENTS: <br /> Description Type <br /> o Water Service Agreement 2015-27 Cover Memo <br /> o Resolution 2015-27 Cover Memo <br /> o GIS MAP Cover Memo <br /> 0 location Man Cover Memo <br /> 0 Boundary Man Cover Memo <br /> REVIEWERS: <br /> Department Reviewer Action Date <br /> httpJ/decalur.nm sagerda.conNagendapublicJCo%erSheet.asp MtmiD=122&Meeting lD=8 1/2 <br />
