132-88-H 1074 York Ave. James J. Schumacher
(32 units)
APPEARANCE: James J. Schumacher
SUBJECT: Appeilant is requesting an extension of time on the
requirement of having to disconnect the rainleaders until such a
time that a storm sewer is made available to the property.
Letter dated September 18, 1988.
PROCEEDINGS: Mr. Schumacher stated that he would like time to
connect to the stormsewer in the future. He became the owner in
1986. He applied to the city for a variance and the variance was
denied.
Mr. Schumacher introduced a letter which is the original permit
creating the sewer line catch basin in the parking lot next to
the building.
Mr. Schumacher stated that he purchased the building in December
1986. Planning at that time was going on to provide for the
disposal of stormsewer and surface water in that area. The
Engineers, Toltz, King, Duvall , Anderson, directed a letter
to this property on January 23, 1987. The letter was directed to
the previous owner. In that letter they attempted to advise the
previous owners, that if they wanted to save money and provide
for a good way of disposing of their surface water and conform
with the rainleader disconnect ordinance, that they could
purchase or provide a payment of $1200.00 and get the stormsewer
extended up York Ave. , so that the lines that were in place
already, could be connected to the stormsewer, that could be
perfect solution. The City should have known that I was the
property owner. The long and short of all this is that the stub
was never put in on York Ave. , to service the other epartment
buildings.
A letter dated September 19, 1988, wherein, it indicates, in
denying the variance, that upon investigation of the situation,
it indicates that there is no storm sewer service available to the
subject property, only a connect to. Other alternat9ves were
discussed.
The appellant feels that he should not have to construct any
extension of the sewer system to service the building, because
the city failed to notify me.
Steve Herbert, Public Works-Rainleader Division stated that all
storm sewers in the area have been completed. City will allow
him to connect to the one nearest to his property, which is
about 100 feet.

Steve Herbert, stated th�t the letter dated January 23, 1987,
which the appellant refel-r was in error, on the quote of
$1200.00. This letter w�s ritten by a City Hired Engineer.
The letter did not origi�hat from the city. The section
that is being referred tb s never approved by the city to be
built. The city will alldw he appellant to connect with the
catch-basin. The distanc� f om the apartment building to the
catch basin could be at �ea t 100 feet.
Chairman Glassman, askedlwh t the cost to the appellant would be?
Steve Herbert, stated that he cost could be about 50 to 60
dollars a foot.
Philip Ethier, stated tha�t r. Schumacher and Mr. Herbert are
talking about connecting,, b th the rainleaders for the building
and the drain for the par,ki g lot to the storm sewer. This would
take care of the drainage; p oblem for both the building and the
parking lot, it's just a qu stion of expense in doing so.
Steve Herbert, stated thalt here are several options; one-just
connect the catch-basin to he storm sewer, drain the building
into the parking lot, which in turn would go to the storm sewer.
Another options would be to connect up the storm line, then pick
up the catch-basin. �
Phil Ethier, stated that th e would be charge for water
treatment, and what will '�h cost be?
Steve Herbert, stated tha$ t e charges would be the amount of
money the appellant would � ha e to pay to offset the cost that the
city would pay, as a city� t treat the rainwater, this would
be at a cost of $45. 00 per! t ousand square feet per year.
BOARD ACTION: Motion made 'by Robert Viering to deny the request
for a variance on the rai�ile der disconnect, instead grant an
extension of time for 24 nion hs (July 1 , 1991 ) to bring the
rainleaders into compiianc�e. Seconded by David Schultz.

She also realizes that t�'e ssue here is bathrooms, but that is

PROCEEDINGS: Ms. Kolar stated that these are Condo's owned
individually. There are six buildings in the development. There
are two common entry doors to each of the buildings and each of
the buildings have units at either end that has their own
privated entrance. The people of these units refuse to have the
master key in a lock box. The alterative would be to go to a two
key system for the Condo owners which would be very expensive.

a variance on having to install Key Box, Motion amended to grant an
extension of time for six months December 13, 1989 to install Key
Box. Seconded by Harold Knutson. MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSIY.
