Resident asks council about excavation behind North Grand; staff says work is a wastewater force main
Summary
Resident Maria Blackwell asked about excavation and buried pipe behind her North Grand home; staff told her the work is for a force main tied to a lift station and wastewater treatment system, and that no approved subdivision exists on the site (owner identified as Danny Floyd).
Maria Blackwell addressed the council during community input to ask who owns the property behind her house and why pipe was being buried there. She said she had been told houses were coming and that she wanted to know how many houses, who the builder would be, and whether a dividing wall would separate the properties. "And behind my house, there's some building going on that I wasn't told what was gonna be there until I've traveled my house," Blackwell said.
Staff answered that the excavation and buried pipe are for the city's force main to move wastewater from a lift station toward the wastewater treatment plant and that no approved subdivision has been submitted; city staff identified Danny Floyd as the property owner. Council offered to notify neighbors if a formal subdivision or application is filed.
