;\\ MEMORANDUM J:J': Jan:'lary 7, 1954 TO: Mr. E. A. Rolison, City Manager \ F1HOM: Glenn IvI. Jain RE: UPLAND ROAD SANITARY SEWERS To our knowledge, no decision w~s ever reached as to the amount of expenses incurred by the City for the Upland Road sewers which was to be paid by the property owners. Prior to start of construction on this sewer, there was ~-lP337.58 accumulated against the project, which was incurred in field surveys, property investigations, preliminary plans, and right-of-way negotiations, The project is now under construction by private contract, and there will be considerable expense for City inspection of the work, as due to the lateness of the season, all other projects in this area have been completed; and the inspectors formerly proposed to be used oh the project in conjunction with other work are not available. rrhe ~ity Attorney advises that, in addition to all other costs, the City has incurred an expense of $423.00 for acquiring the easement through the DeScalzo property, detailed as follows: Easement r},litle fees Appraisal $300.00 23.00 IOO.OO $423.00 It appears that inspection will amount to $100 to $125. Inasmuch as it appears that the total expense incurred by the City may amount to at least $885000, a decision should be made as to what portion, if any, the City will bear, and the four property owners involve( should be officially notified as to the amounts which they will owe the City, in addition to City inspection costs. No bond was required of the property owners to cover any of these expenditures. In addition to the City costs on this project, the property owners paid Mr. Wilhelm for preparing the final plans, and staking, the final plans being almost entirely different than the original preliminary plans, due to changes in location, easements, etc. GMJ/k ~' ~ );; /'.
