All Commissioners were present. President Rheinberger presiding. Also present were Tom Corman and Robert Benson of the Water Department. Judy Kostohryz and Edward Simonet III regarding a service leak at 615 Fourth St. N. and Dwayne & Jeanette Nelson regarding a service leak at 305 Poplar St. E. On motion of Commissioner Thompson, duly seconded by Commissioner O'Brien all voting "Aye ", the agenda was accepted with changes to proceed with guests before going on to Water Department business. Edward Simonet III representing Judy Kostohryz of 615 Fourth St. N. discussed with the Board a water service leak that occurred at 615 Fourth St. N. on December 26th. The water department had repaired another service leak across the street from this residence that day and when the water main was turned back on a leak came up at 615 Fourth St. N. It was Mr. Simonet's contention that because there was not any leaking before the water department repaired the leak across the street that Ms. Kostohryz's leak was caused by the action of the water department took to repair the other leak. Ms. Kostohryz presented the Board with two bids for the replacement of her water line: Miller Excavating at $4,300.00 and Fuhr Trenching at $3,825.00. She would like the Board to pay for some of the expense of this repair, because she thinks it was caused by our working on the leak across the street from her residence. After much discussion with Tom Corman and Manager McKnight, on motion of Commissioner O'Brien, duly seconded by Commissioner Thompson, all voting "Aye ", the Water Department will pay $1,500.00 toward the repair of this water service with Fuhr Trenching and offer Judy Kostohryz a three -year assessment program to pay for the repair. Dewayne and Jeanette Nelson, owners of 305 Poplar St. E appeared before the Board requesting an adjustment of their January 1st water bill of $373.80. They explained that this house's water service ran through their neighbor's basement and that is where the meter is located. A leak occurred on the water service line somewhere between these two houses, but never come to the surface. They have since installed a new line from the Poplar Street watermain and the service no longer goes through the neighbor's house. After much discussion, on motion of Commissioner O'Brien, duly seconded by Commissioner Thompson, all voting "Aye, Manager McKnight was instructed to adjust the Nelson's water bill to the same amount it was one year ago, which was $29.80. On motion of Commissioner Thompson, duly seconded by Commissioner O'Brien, all voting "Aye ", the minutes of the December 14, 2005 regular meeting were read and approved as written.

He is going to tell these people that a well site will be required before this piece can be developed. At that time a test well will be drilled to find out the water quality. The Board read a letter from Shawn Sanders, City Engineer regarding a 2006 street project in the Forest Hills area of town. The water department has had many watermain breaks in this neighborhood in the past and he put together some figures for replacing the cast iron main with either ductile iron pipe or PVC. The estimates for replacing watermain and services are as follows: DIP PVC Everett Street $62,000.00 $51,000.00 Rainbow Court $40,000.00 $33,000.00 Entire Neighborhood $355,000.00 $295,000.00 After much discussion, on motion of Commissioner O'Brien, duly seconded by Commissioner Thompson, all voting "Aye ", the Board will go ahead and replace the watermain in the entire neighborhood with PVC pipe at an estimated cost of $295,000.00. Manager McKnight will send a letter to Mr. Sanders regarding this. Tom Corman reported to the Board that it has been a busy month with four service leaks, 7 main leaks and two hydrant repairs.

This program will aid in the preparation of inventory and the keeping of pumping and service records. The cost of this program is $500.00.

He apparently had a faulty toilet on the second floor of the residence and the pipe burst in the home and flooded the home.

He is asking for some consideration on the large water bill of $1,059.20. After discussion, on motion of Commissioner O'Brien, duly seconded by Commissioner Thompson, the request was denied. The Board feels that this should be something that his homeowners insurance should be covering. Discussion was held regarding the purchase of a bagger for the riding lawnmower. The purchase was made before getting Board approval, but was a budgeted item. Manager Benson explained to the Board that Tom had purchased the bagger thinking that the item was already approved; therefore he could purchase this item.

All Commissioners were present. President O'Brien presiding. The purpose of this meeting was a request from Ascension Church regarding the removal of two electrical power poles on our property. The Stillwater Library is running underground power to their new building between the Water Department and Ascension Church. At the time that the Library will be running their underground electrical between the Ascension Church and the Water Department Ascension Church has asked that two electrical power poles on our property be removed and have all the power run underground.
