Mayor Trimble reconvened the council into open session at 8 :45 P. M. Mayor Trimble made the statement that there would be no presentation of the amended 1986-87 budget nor would there be any action on the adoption of the amended 1986-87 budget . DISCUSSION OF EUBANKS/HWY 78 RIGHT-OF-WAY ACQUISITION: Acting City Engineer Ron Homeyer has discussed with Mr . A. D. Boyd the needed land for r-o-w and believes that Mr . Boyd will dedicate the needed r-o-w. Mrs . Kathy Hummel does not have a problem with the water/sewer line, but does have a problem with the r-o-w for a 4 lane street . The staff is faced with a short time frame for getting in the necessary lines in order for the utilities to be there for the new city hall . This r-o-w is needed in order to get the sewer line in and up to the new city hall site . There is enough room in the prescriptive easement but getting sewer down Eubanks is where the problem is . If it is put in the prescriptive easement , it will cost more because of the depth it will have to be installed . Would council consider a credit of the appraised value of the dedicated land for the r-o-w to the cost of the sewer line and tap fees . Mayor Pro Tem Donovan wanted to know the time frame on the road . Mr. Homeyer said we had been talking about it for a year and a half . Councilman Akin asked City Manager James Johnson if he had looked this up in the past minutes . City Manager James Johnson said no. Mr. Barron Cook said in the c3 past , council had made a decision to use of the perimeter street funds to put in an asphalt road. Mr. Homeyer also requested the council give him guidelines on the sewer for Hwy. 78 , as some of the people would be dedicating land but did not want the sewer . Councilman DiTota wanted to know if the cost allocations were for a four (4) lane road. Mr . Homeyer said they were for a 33 ft . road , a four land would be 44 ft. Councilman DiTota asked Mr. Homeyer if he agreed with Mr . Pappas ' s statement "that if certain parties choose not to participate, particularly Steaks over Texas and the baithouse, they should be warned that non-participation will release the City from the commitment to continue to pick up their sewage and they should find alternate methods for taking care of that problem. Mr . Larry Jackson, City Attorney said the City cannot cut someone off the sewer line. Councilman Crane said he would like to see the the city get the necessary right-of-way dedication for what we need for future use. Mr. Homeyer said there were three plans to allocate the cost from, one being on the property frontage, second on the number of acres , and the third on a pro-rated method . Mr . Homeyer stated that staff recommends the third method. Mr . Cook said the commitment he made with the City was to pay $34 ,000 . of the sewer line from Brown St . to Hwy. 78 , the total cost of this is $56 ,000 . Councilman Crane made a proposal to try and get the easements for the right-of-way needed for the sewer line and the road on the west side of Eubanks . The property owners can pay later as they tie on to the sewer line. Motion was made by Councilman Westerhof to use the prescriptive R-O-W for the sewer line and a two (2) lane street . Councilman Crane wanted to know if the council was going to access them for their portion of the road . Mr. Faires stated that the perimeter street ordinance lets the developer sign a portion of his funds over to be used for an asphalt street until such time a concrete street can be put in. Mr. Faires and Mr. Cook both stated that there was enough money to asphalt two lanes of street from Brown to Hwy 78 in the prescriptive easement. Mr. Faires also stated to remember that when the Boyd or Hummel property sales , the new owner will have to pay the perimeter street fees because Eubanks will only be two (2) lanes and is to be a four (4) lane in the future. Councilman DiTota wanted to know on the $34 ,000 . being paid for the sewer, do we still access the property owners for the balance of the cost for this line . Councilman Westerhof stated his motion again, to go ahead and put in the 12" sewer line and the two lane street in the prescriptive easement . Seconded by Councilman Akin. The vote was as follows : Mayor Trimble - in favor , Mayor Pro Tem Donovan - in favor, Councilman Akin - in favor, Councilman Westerhof - in favor , Councilman DiTota - in favor , Councilman Crane - against , and Councilman Blakey - in favor. This motion carried with six (6) in favor , and one (1) against . Mr . Cook wanted to know about the paving of the road and the water line to loop the area . Mr. Homeyer said this area does need to be looped and needs to go up Eubanks with a water line in order to loop it .
