& Answers from City Engineer, Richard
Iafelice, P.E.
Q
Can you tell me when sewers are planned
for installation on White Road between
Bishop Rd. and Richmond Rd.? Thanks.
A The City just authorized the planning
and design for this phase of the sanitary
sewer program and we are in the process
of securing the financing for the project.
I can estimate that the earliest construction
would begin is the latter part of 2007
and more than likely will end in 2009.
After that time, property owners will
be able to connect. The area you have
cited on White Road will be between Bishop
Road and the City’s westerly corporation
line, not to Richmond Road.
Q
I am just following up on the progress
of the sanitary sewer project. I just
saw the “published” summary
schedule for the sanitary sewer project
and was wondering if there are any “new”
developments in the schedule as it relates
to the intersection of White Road. Per
the notice issued by the city, dated August
2002, the section of White Road from Erich
Drive to the Golf Course was scheduled
to complete by October 2006.
My
property is located on White Road - will
the sanitary sewer be complete in this
area per the original schedule? If not,
can anything be done to address my property
and allow me to start construction next
summer? Angela
A The schedule has significantly changed
from that published in 2002. The City
just authorized the planning and design
for the third phase of the sewer program
and I do not expect construction to begin
until the latter part of 2007 at the earliest.
Most likely, it will carry into 2009 until
final completion. We are in the process
of securing the financing for the project.
I
do know of housing starts in the City
with the Health Dept.’s permission
to install half of a septic system that
is abandoned when sewers are available.
That is their jurisdiction and they are
aware of the City’s progress and
intent to construct sanitary sewers. You
can contact Laura Kuns at the Lake County
Health District at 350.2543 for further
information on this.
Q My property is
located on White Road, between Bishop
and the western corporation limit line.
I was told there was an article in
the paper that our sewer project may
start earlier than 2007. Is there a
possibility that it will?
A Your
property is located in Phase III and
construction is not expected to start
earlier than 2007. At this time,
our best estimate is the earliest construction
start is the latter part of 2007 and
more likely will be in 2008.
