VILLAGE OF NEW BERLIN SPECIAL BOARD MEETING MINUTES Tuesday, November 1, 2016

President Stephen Frank called the Special Board Meeting of the New Berlin Village Board to order at 7 p.m. on November 1, 2016 at the Village Hall.

Attendees: Mayor Steve Frank, Trustee Joel Sander, Trustee Mike Krall, Trustee Diane Payne, Trustee Stephanie Snyder, and Trustee Curt Stephens, Water/Sewer Superintendent Tim Bliss, and Mike McEvers, Benton & Associates

The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the Sewer Line Extension Project to the SW corner of Old Rte. 54 & Waverly Road (formerly The Still Tavern Property). Also, to approve a Special Use Permit with Sheedy Shores Winery for a Benefit.

The restaurant owner is wanting a sewer line to his property. If doing a sewer line extension and if gravity goes up to the property, EPA permits would be needed. If a grinder pump is used, it would be like a service and EPA permits wouldn’t be needed.

Benton and Associates submitted a proposal where they would do an Elevation Survey to check elevations to determine if gravity flow sewer is possible to serve the property. They would also submit a report that will evaluate the elevations and determine the best feasible option to provide sewer service to the property.

MOTION: To have Benton and Associates do the Elevation Survey and generate the report at the cost of $1,550.00
