DUBOICE ROAD m RUMSEY OF ITHACA CORPORATION
Mr , Truman K ,• Powers presented a memorandum on behalf of Rumsey Ithaca
Corporation , Rumsey Ithaca Corporation has not supported either the
• Northeast Sewer Distract or the Northeast Water District as the yearly
cost for sarne would be approxima*. ely $ 7 , 283 . 50 for an area in which less
than 10 units would have access to the proposed water and sewer .
As an alternative , Rumsey Ithaca Corporation proposes the following .
1 . A roadway leading from Duboi4e Road to parcel 22m1= 1 and
running north and south , west of thy: lots now owned by others , with turn
arouns at the north and south terminals of such roads conditioned upon
the agreement that mains would be constructed upon such road in such a
way that it would serve lots to be developed westerly of said access road ,
20 The sewer line now shown on the mao to be several feet east
of the easterly lots lines of t :ie existing lots , which are 175 feet deeps
on the easterly side of the roads be located on or immediately adjacent to
the easterly lot line of said lots .
3 . The entire balance of parcel 222 = 2 from the sewer line east
be classified as an isolated parcel of undeveloped acreage not served by
sewer or water at a nominal annual charge of •$ 1 , 00 .
The above alternative would le.a e approximately 25 . 5 Rumsey Ithaca units
on the assessment rolls of each of the districts , the sewer unit cost
being $ 101 . 78 and the water unit charge $ 62 ., 11 ,.
