The motion carried by a vote of 6-0. Absent - Council member Brown. DISCUSSION/DIRECTION - REQUEST FROM PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY FOR WATER SERVICE FOR A LOCATION OUTSIDE OF THE CITY LIMITS Mayor Sisk requested a Staff presentation. Public Works Director Tom Phare explained Public Service Company (PSCo) has requested water service to their proposed gas compressor station which will be built just east of 66th Street adjacent to the Community Ditch. Any water service outside the City requires Council approval. If Council desires, the Staff would enter into negotiations for a service agreement. He stated this is typical of what was allowed to purchase an outside city water service a few years ago. City Manager Simmons asked for a description of the size and service and the purpose of the request. Public Works Director Phare stated the size of the service will be a %" water line service that would be used for an irrigation system for exterior landscaping and sanitary facilities. No water will be used in the compressor station at this point. He stated the cost for an inside the city %" water service line would be $20,000, therefore, the fee would be $40,000. COUNCIL COMMENT Council member Keany asked who would construct the service line. T The Public Works Director stated the City would install the tap, in order to insure it's done correctly, but the bulk of the physical work would be done by Public Service. Council member Van Pelt asked what would be done with their waste water. Public Works Director Phare stated they would have a septic field. Mayor Sisk asked if this line replaces the high pressure line on Dillon Road. Public Works Director Phare stated his understanding well with the new facility, the Dillon Road facility would be abandoned.
