Huntsville Waterworks and owner discuss secondary water access and pipe placement
Summary
Jake Songer of Huntsville Waterworks reviewed options for secondary water service to McKay Meadows, discussing pipe size, looping and whether the line should run along the proposed private drive; council and owner discussed how road placement affects water installation.
Jake Songer, representing Huntsville Waterworks, described alternative approaches for supplying secondary (irrigation) water to the McKay Meadows parcels, focusing on pipe diameter, looping and which side of the proposed private drive the line should occupy. Songer framed the conversation as technical choices that depend on the final road alignment and the town’s infrastructure plan.
Council members and other participants discussed whether locating the road in a particular place would make installation of the secondary water line easier. The group did not set technical specifications; Songer said the utility would coordinate with the owner’s design work to determine actual pipe size and route once a final plan is submitted. The annexation documents state the owner requested water connections and access as part of the agreement, which staff said will be discussed further when engineering plans are provided.
