APPROVAL OF BOOSTER PUMP INSTALLATION AND COST SHARE AGREEMENT
WITH CHRISTOPHER AND TAMMY OMDAL, 18065 IXONIA AVENUE
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve the attached
agreement between the City of Lakeville and Christopher and Tammy Omdal for the
installation and cost sharing of a booster pump.
Passage of this motion will enable the City to reimburse the Omdal's 50 percent of the
purchase and installation cost in accordance with the attached agreement.
Overview
The elevation of some homes in Lakeville, in relation to the water towers, results in the
potential for low water pressure especially during high demand periods when the water
level in the tower is low. This affects some homes in the Dakota Heights area and is
the case with the Omdal property located on Ixonia Avenue.
The Omdal's property is adjacent to the Dakota Heights water tower and is only slightly
lower in elevation. This small difference in elevation does not provide for a consistent
water pressure. The installation of a booster pump will improve water pressure in the
residence.
The City uses the attached agreement to provide an equitable and cost effective
solution for both the resident and the City. Under the agreement, the City reimburses
the property owner 50 percent of the cost of purchase and installation based on prices
provided by the property owner and verified by staff.
Staff has reviewed the agreement and recommends approval.
Primary Issues to Consider
• Are there alternatives to a booster pump? There are no cost effective alternatives to
the installation of a booster pump to increase water pressure in a residence.
Supporting Information
• A copy of the agreement is attached.
