The Council thanked the Brownies for sharing their water gift with them and Councilmember Goodman asked the City Manager and staff to investigate the problem items the Brownies discussed. OAK PARK SUBDIVISION APPROACH MAIN Mr. Donald C. Walden appeared before Council to discuss the Oak Park Subdivision Approach Main. "I represent University Savings Association which is the owner of a 25 lot 10 acre subdivision called Oak Park Section I. It is a recorded final plat. This property was the applicant for a wastewater approach main which was approved by the Council in August, 1979. The approach main approved was 18" and a 15" wastewater line to tie into the interceptor that is in Williamson Creek. The purpose of the approach main was to serve this subdivision and intervening property which is the Oak Hill Elementary School and the shopping center and other areas but there was no defined service area and I can't find anything in the file in writing as to all the property that would be served. My purpose is to request the Director of Water and Wastewater provide me with a letter stating that the property can acquire water and wastewater and utility service from the City of Austin through existing water lines adjacent to the subdivision and by means of an extension of the 8" wastewater_approach main which this property was the applicant for, which is currently 75' south of the tract. The construction of the line occurred by virtue of the authority granted through the approach main process and it was reviewed and approved by the Water and Wastewater Department in August and September of last year as an 8" wastewater approach main. The line that is built is not the same size as the one approved in the resolution. It is a smaller line but that line was sized down from the approved size to an 8" after the engineering study showed what area the customers would logically be expected to flow into and therefore what size was needed. There is capacity in the line for this property. This property was the original applicant. I know of no legal impediment to not receive the service. It is the logical area to be served because the existing line has capacity and the plan has been approved at the 8" size several times. No one has complained the line is too small," Mr. Walden then showed a map. Mr. Carl Schwing, Director of Water and Wastewater, said Mr. Walden has accurately stated the facts. The approved approach main was to be a 15" and 18". Instead an 8" line has been built a little piece at a time. Mr. Schwing said there is nothing wrong with the additional subdivsion being proposed. Councilmember Goodman asked what it would take to get service to the tract Mr. Walden represents. Mr. Schwing answered, "Just the normal on-site improvements that the subdivision is going to do. The 6" water line, the 8" wastewater line. We have no objections to it but feel Council should be aware this is not the original proposed approach main and utilization of it. 1 ! ! Council Memo APPROACH MAIN - (Continued) 12 May 5, 1983 Council directed the City Manager to direct staff to have an agreement for Oak Park Section I to have service. CITIZEN DID NOT APPEAR Mr. John Noell, who had requested to discuss the City's policy regarding annexation to Municipal Utility Districts, did not appear. Mr. Robert Gratten, who had requested to express concern over placement of modular home units on properties and discuss Rosewood Park, did not appear. REQUEST DENIED Mr. Herb C. Collazo's request for a sound permit from May 5, 1983 thru May 21, 1983 for Templo Sinai Assemblies of God Church revival services on the corner of West Oltorf and Wilson Street was denied by Council. Mr. Lonnie Davis, Building Inspection Director, told Mr. Collazo that there are no waiver provisions built into the ordinance and only one permit is allowed every 30 days. CHARTER REVISION COMMITTEE Councilmember Urdy introduced to Council for consideration a resolution establishing a Charter Revision Committee.
