Village Council Meeting Minutes October 13, 1988 Page Six - X. ANY OTHER MATTERS A) Mr. & Mrs. Cary Dix, residents of 335 Country Club Drive, appealed a decision of the Village requiring a jack and bore procedure on Country Club Drive to facilitate a sanitary sewer connection to the ENCON sewer main, instead of permitting a road-cut. The Village Manager reviewed the jack and bore considerations and policies of various municipalities in the area, and he indicated that the age of the road was usually the determining factor for the procedure to be used. Mr. Bradford noted that the bituminous roadways have a life expectancy of approximately fifteen years. Road-cuts are usually permitted on older roads, and the jack and bore procedure is required for new roads. Mr. Bradford indicated that he would review the Village policy concerning road-cuts and provide his recommendations to Village Council for any policy changes. Upon completion of the review, it was the consensus of Council that Mr. & Mrs. Dix' request should be approved and a road-cut permitted since Country Club Drive was scheduled for repaving within the next few years. Mr. Rick Dent, Executive Director of ENCON emphasized the importance of communications between governmental entities concerning policy changes and expressed his desire for the continued excellent working relationship with the Village. There being no other matters before the Council, the meeting was adjourned at 7:05 P.M. Respectfully submitted, Bill C.
