Summary

Staff said a roughly 2,200-foot water and sewer extension is underway near the cell tower and the Maple Hills site will require a force main and an on-site lift station; the mayor secured a grant to reduce city cost.

City staff explained that the Maple Hills site will be served by an extended water and sewer line and an on-site lift station to handle a force main connection. A staff member said the extension runs "approximately 2,200 linear feet" near where the cell tower is and noted that the mayor obtained a grant so the extension "is not going to cost you a benefit" to the city.

Cheyenne Wafa confirmed the site will include a lift station and that the developer will design the on-site infrastructure to match the force main connection; council asked staff to bring back engineering details and funding responsibilities at the second reading. The exchange clarified that while the water/sewer work is advancing, routing and cost-sharing details still require follow-up.
