Minutes of meeting of July 7, 1970 were read and accepted ad read. Treasurer's reports for month;of May and June were read and accepted. ~~ ~~ _ Mrs. Leabart,~was present and explained to the council all the work that she had promised they would do and plans for the future regarduzg the xeeexsz reconnai9sance report. She stated the written report will be coming shortly, that No. 1 was the sewer system. She toured the city and fields with Mr. Myers and different things were pointed out. She stated with regard to p®lution problem, some cities ~s~a~s have very difficult waFq of handling t~nis problem, but the way Riverside is situated, this would be no problem. She stated ~ order to get federal and state aid that we would have to have an overall plan on sewers. Second problem was the streets -- there were five main highways passing through Riverside and that one of the streets vnuld be cut off - 50th street. This area was where the traiffc would be only one way in and one way out, which is poor circulation. the Chief of Police stated that there were an average of 43,000 cars a day passing tlmugh the City, and this is good. This problem of streets should be in the program. Nest is the planning of the best use of the areas, for business, residents, single family and multiple dwellings, this can be planned and zoned through the zoning problem. There is very little land for annexation and this is part between Kansas City and Parkville on the west of riverside and thought ~i.s should be part of ;the City if possible. as this is ideal area for the City, if they saw fit to annex it. The sewer problem or plans would fit in quite well with this property. This area has a number of governmental programs going on, the Highways, the Pick Sloan Plan flood control, understand very shortly that this area will have as good flood protection as the Fairfax area, which means developing as in the Fairfax area. These are all good factors. Understands that the city dispatches for five cities in the surrounding area and this is also a good factor, it is centrally ;located and it may mean that many more cites will use it. It has been mentioned that there is a need for houses of all levels of income. A house study must also Sae made for this project. Have to run a house program three to five years program on housing study, and thought this would be included in the plan. Reg. - July 21, 1970 Page 2, $nother thing in the City's favor is that it has the Citizen's participation. Also she stated she likes to write down all the problems in the community and how they are being worked out. Again she stated th is would all be written in a report and should be coming there to the Council members shortly. A plan was showed to the council with regard to the Ci~Cy of Albany. Mr. Myers then stated that one and one-half 3peaas ago he asked the Missouri Highway Department to work out the drainage of Burlington creek and they stated they would pay for this problem, and what is left that they could not take care,of, the BN said they would pick up the tab. Mr. Myers also stated that Mr. Hopkins called and advised that we did not answer one of their letters with regard to having all people available to the sewers to hook into them, Mr. Witt stated that there is sone question as what is considered available whether it be 1500 feet or 1000 feet, that the rnntract with the City says they have to connect if it is available. In the plumbing code of K.C. available is set out as being flithin 200 feet of the sewer. He stated it is quite obvious that we would have to pass an ordinance to deal with this problem. Also it was brought up that Mr. Hopkins wants a map bowing all the connections and it appears that they want a report quarterly. Mr. Myers stated he wrote a letter to Mrs. Green and they have agreed to let her hook into the sewer with a 4" discharge line v~ ich is discharging from the lunlter yard. She talked to him the other day and she agreed if they allowed her to hook into this, she could stay in for five years or any less and this would cost her $1250 ~ ~ per' yearui, Myers stated he thought xiti this would take care of the present sisi~i situation she has a;~ of now, but if she did not go along with it, she would have to construct and pay for her own sewer line. She will have to pay for the use of the sewers the same as anyone else, on the water use basis. Missouri Cities have worked up the collection for the City of the people on the sewers and asked if it would be okay to pay every three months, and thought it would be okay with Kansas City, however it was to be requested of them that they set out the people who are paying and the amount u~d by each person u~.ng the sewers.
