Re: Water Leak Under City'Roadway
Dear Mr. Bisson:
LAURA M. HALL
MAYOR
I received your letter dated August 24,-1995, in response to a letter.that was sent to you
on August 18, 1994.
I apologize for* the -delay -of the receipt of your letter. It was put into the City's mail
system on August 18, 1995. Regarding your concern -for the repair date, the longer it
runs, the greater risk for damages to your driveway and/or to 231st street.
I have issued a letter to Jim Walker, City Engineer, asking him to look into upgrading
this street so a City main lies in this area. Ultimately, it will be the-City's responsibility to
maintain this area. In the meantime, I have no jurisdiction to repair this private line as
was previously pointed out to you with the city code sent to you in the August 18 letter.
If you have further concerns regarding the recent developer work that was done, please
contact Jim Walker.
Sincerely,
Ron Holland
Water/Sewer Supervisor

SUBJECT: Water Leak Under City Roadway
On August 17, 1995, you contacted Roy Whitcutt concerning your water service line
that was leaking in the street area.
It has been determined that the responsibility lies within your area for repair. This was
determined by referencing the*City Code 7.10.120, Section B (attached).
Please make necessary repairs by August 25, 1995. If damage occurs to the City
street you will be billed for repairs. Please note that you will need to obtain an Invasion
of Right of Way Permit to make repairs . This is available from our Community Services
Department at 505 Bell Street.

Via: Noel Miller

From: Ron Holland 4W
Water/Sewer Supervisor
Subject: ..' Private Service Lines Under City Streets
23204 - 76th Avenue West Area
C(apy
Please be advised of a problem we have had on 232nd Street SW in the area that serves the
following addresses: 23204.- 23138 - 23202 - 76th Avenue West. It has come to my
attention that this is a city owned street. It has also come to my attention that these water service
lines are private and yet they lie in a city right-of-way.
This was probably allowed because the developer was not required to make the upgrades that
would be require to properly develop a city road for a development and therefore per City Code,
water was only installed to 76th Avenue West right-of-way line as this code states that water
will only run a maximum'of 40' from City water mains to customers at which point the meters
would be set. It would then be considered private from this point forward.
You may want to upgrade the service lines by providing a small supply line on this street and
then services could be installed to property lines. Therefore, leaks in the right-of-way would
now be under thejurisdiction of the City. This could be a 2" size. If engineering work is done
by you, my crews could install this 2" size under a project in your department.
Let me know what your recommendation is.

(Two days time). T 'h il s �, -:7, an � inrf,:�.9,7_onable reauest on vour

I expect to resolve my si"Aiation with or without your

have a faulty system of any kind entering my home.
I wish to impress upon you I do not appreciate recieving
what I consider to be a threatening letter at such late date
to affect reDairs that were until the end of last week still
in question with the engineering department of the city.
Mr. Holland, it is not my intent to irate you or disrupt
your routine. You had, however, consider that I will nor
tolerate an un workable attitude from any of my own city
employees.
I am looking foward -to resoi'ving this situation (and others)
with the city and hope that this unique problem does not
cause you too much concern.
I'm requesting from you any information and/or permits for
the recent improvements to 231st 5t. (performed by Robert
