Home My WebLink AboutIX-05 Assessment of Water Service Repair - 619 5th Street W. City Council Memorandum To: Mayor Fasbender & City Councilmembers From: Ryan Stempski, Public Works Director/City Engineer Date: February 5, 2024 Item: Water Service Repair Assessment Request – 619 5th Street W. Council Action Requested: The City of Hastings is requesting the costs associated with repairs done to the private water service line be assessed to 619 5th Street W. The cost of the work in this case was $8,500. Background Information: Public Works crews were dispatched to 619 5th Street W for a water pressure concern. The cause was determined to be a leak in the private service line. Since the owner of this property recently passed away, a relative contacted the contractor and lined up the work. All necessary work was completed the week of January 8, 2024. Since there is no living owner, and to protect our water system, the City of Hastings is requesting the assessment, instead of the property owner. Notice was provided to the listed address, as required by state law, and if approved, the assessment will be certified to the property records as a utility assessment.
