Councilmember Savanick attended the meeting at this time. Keith Gordon reviewed the Sanitary Sewer Master Plan for the City as con- SEWER PLAN tained in the document dated September 9, 1981. He reviewed the method of REVIEW determining the sewer flow for the trunk sizing requirements and said over- all the system is functioning as it should. The central trunk interceptor will be necessary for the City of 1990 because the west trunk may be over capacity by that time. (Councilmember Kelly attended the meeting at this time. Mr. Gordon said that in approving the sewer element of the Comprehensive Plan, the Metropolitan Council requires cities which permit private septic systems to pass an ordinance providing for annual inspections of them, licensing pumpers and other regulations. If septic systems are allowed only on parcels of land larger than five acres in size, it is not necessary for the cities to have these ~egulations. He sug- gested in revising the City's ordinance, prigate septic systems not be allowed on un- platted property of less than 10 acres in size. Existing platted lots where sewer is not available would still be permitted to have private septic systems and be grandfathered in under the ordinance. Councilmember Savanick said she believes 10 acres would be too large and it should be five acres instead. Robert Rosene said the 10-acre size was suggested because it pro- motes more flexible future development and provides for better planning when the owner wishes to subdivide. Councilmember Overgard and Mayor Garrison agreed with the 10- acre size. Mayor Garrison said that because all of Apple Valley is in the Metropolitan urban ser- vice area and the Comprehensive Plan shows all of the City having sewer and water avail- able in the future, it would not ben,responsible planning to promote development of large lots without sewer and water. Robert Rosene reviewed the Water Master Plan for the City as contained in WATER PLAN the document dated August 11, 1981. Mr. Rosene said the first plan was pre- REVIEW pared for the City in 1969 and it was updated in 1975, 1978, and again in 1981. He stated that the water is of good quality, but it does contain iron and manganese which do not cause health problems but are nuisance problems. Because of the location of the City's wells, a treatment plant could be considered if it becomes necessary at some time in the future. Mr. Rosene said six additional wells will be needed in the future and, at this time, he recommends they be Jordan wells. He said the City now has four reservoirs and one ad- ditional 1.5 million gallon elevated tank will be needed in the future, located in the southeastern part of the City. Mr. Rosene also reviewed the trunk distribution system in the City.
