QUEENSTOWN COMMISSIONERS  March 2, 2021 Special Meeting  A special meeting was held in the Town Office for the purpose ofi meeting holding a work session to discuss proposed water tower and infrastructure project and preliminary discussion on President Willis called the special meeting to order at 9:05 a.m. Participating were. President Tom Willis, Commissioner Al Hardee, Commissioner Bryon Callahan, Town Attorney Lyndsey Ryan, At the request oft the Commissioners, Mr. Rauch had looked at the rate structure for a new tower and infrastructure, and what the water debt service would be for users. He advised that should the town build a new tower and infrastructure without the Wheatland's project, current water debt service would increase by $16.90 per EDU, per month. This would bring the water debt service portion per EDU user to $25.34 per month. He stated that originally it was estimated that Wheatland's would require 90,000 gpd of allocation. IfMr. Waterman paid for his EDU's all at once, it would reduce the water debt service to $3.57, as a portion oft the new infrastructure and tower would be borne by the town residents to address current needs, such as use and an increase tov water pressure for fire suppression. Mr. Rauch stated that Mr. Waterman would: not need to pay for the entire allocations on day one, and such payment arrangements could be addressed in a Mr. Rauch stated that sewer will also bei needed for the project. There currently is some wastewater capacity available, but not enough to support the entire project. Mr. Waterman could contribute to the I&I repairs that are needed to free up some capacity. The existing plant was designed to expand for additional capacity ifneeded, and the cost to do sO would be borne by the developer. To determine wastewater capacity improvements needed, we would need to know how much Ms. Ryan stated that a DRRA usually addresses the need for annexation, zoning, etc., elements which Mr. Waterman has already addressed. It is possible we may only need to draft a Public Works Agreement (PWA). Mr. Rauch stated that roads, sidewalks, etc. can go in al PWA.
